My favorite line from Strangelove is when Capt. Mandrake tells a soldier to shoot open a coke machine so he can get a quarter to call the Pentagon and the soldier objects saying: "That's private proverty." I laughed for ten days.

My favourite line [as Turgidson and Sadesky tussle] Muffley says: "Genltemen, You can't fight in here... this is the war room."

That was a very good line. I also liked all the signs in the background of the nuclear weapons base: "Peace Is Our Profession"
