The big brain am winning again! I am the greetest! Now, I am leaving Earth for no raisin.

EDIT: After reading your replies, it occurred to me that too much of my everyday speech is made up of lines from the show. Maybe that’s why everyone thinks I’m weird.

The rest of aren’t normal, and that’s what makes us great! … So, Leela, don’t want to be like us? Or do you want to be like Adlai, with no severe mental or social problems whatsoever?

Second EDIT: I didn’t expect so many responses, but I’ve just been reading them all and giggling to myself. Thank you everyone I really needed this. Keep em coming!

Professor: Your tux doesn't fit because you stole it from a boy.

Bender: You mean a man. It was his Bar Mitzvah.

The supreme rulers are hardly known by their subjects.

The lesser are loved and praised.

The even lesser are feared.

The least are despised.

Those who show no trust will not be trusted.

Those who are quiet value the words.

When their task is completed, people will say:

We did it ourselves.

--Tao Te Ching, Chapter 17

They say the key to any successful battle is the element of surprise. SURPRISE!

You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

"I'm going to remind Fry of his humanity, the way only a woman can."

"You're going to do his laundry?"

Edit - the one that had me literally rolling off the couch because I was laughing so hard was, "That just raises further questions!"

This reminds me of another great Professor quote.

Prof: I’ve just finished recharging the matter compressor.

Fry: What’s the matter compressor?

Prof: Nothing’s the matter now that I’ve charged the matter compressor.

🎵We're whalers on the moon,

We carry a harpoon,

But there ain't no whales,

So we tell tall tales,

And sing this whalin' tune! 🎵

That's not an astronaut, that's a TV comedian! And he was just using space travel as a metaphor for beating his wife.

So, there's an infinite number of parallel universes?

No... just the two...

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago

You live in the universe, but you never do these things until someone comes to visit.

“Take the deal, Fry! If there's a delicious cake, isn't it better to have one slice than none at all? Even if four other guys eat the other four slices, and they're all thrusting their sweaty naked bodies against the cake?”

Not exactly an iconic line, but I love the delivery:

"Have you heard of the Monks of Deshuba?"

Fry: "I've... not heard of them."

Futurama's great for nerdy science gags, social satire, and pop culture spoofs, but its best jokes are always uniquely stupid twists of language like this.

Tie between:

If anyone needs me, I'll be in the angry dome

angry muttering as the PES flies away

and

Gwabu wabu?

Also:

That's over atmospheres of pressure!

How many can the ship withstand?!

Well, it's a spaceship, so I'd say anywhere between zero and one.
