To me, they are two: Big Trouble in Little China and Tango & Cash
while T&C has probably the biggest one liner ratio in the history of cinema hence its always agood ****ing fun to watch, BTILC has some memorable ones I remember since I was 6. Jack Burton is THE ultimate movie cool guy with a mullet.
some examples:
"Everybody relax, I'm here. "
"What does that mean? Huh? "China is here." I don't even know what the hell that means. "
"I took something. I can see things other men cannot see. Why are you dressed like that? "
[Walking outside in the rain, Jack and Egg fight for control of the umbrella]
Wang Chi: A brave man likes the feel of wind on his face.
Jack Burton: And a wise man knows when to get in out of the rain!

Robocop
"Dead or alive, you are coming with me"
tell me if this isn't the badassest line of all times. He's basically saying you are worth **** compared to him, and he will grab you for the crotch and slam your face on his car hood. Priceless.

Excellent choices, but I go with EVERY LINE from "Silverado."
99% of that movie is incredibly quotable.
"Where's the dog?"
"All I did was kiss the girl."
"I'm really gonna miss that hat."
"I don't want to kill you and you don't want to be dead."
"Today my jurisdiction ends here."
and many many more.
"I am dah pahty poopah." KINDERGARTEN COP
agreed. ;) and adding: Animal House, Conan, Aliens, The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark, High Plains Drifter, Blade Runner
Edit: ih yeah, (since it's on right now) adding, Office Space, and Pirates of the Carribean.

"He's only mostly dead."

James Bond's best line in a movie (FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE): "Red wine with fish -- I should have known!"
Best line in a James Bond movie (GOLDFINGER): "Do you expect me to talk?" "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!"
John Wayne's best line in a movie (FORT APACHE):
Henry Fonda -- "If the pathetic specimens we saw on our way to the fort are any example, the Apache should prove no problem at all."
Wayne -- "If ya saw 'em, they weren't Apache."
Best line in a John Wayne movie (FORT APACHE):
Henry Fonda -- "As a teetotaler, I'm not expert on these matters. Sergeant, tell me: Is this whiskey?"
Victor MacLaglen -- (takes a sip; makes a horrible grimace) "Well, sir, 'tis better than no whiskey at all..."

Humphrey Bogart, Aldo Ray and Peter Ustinov play three escaped murders who hatch a plan to steal from a shopkeeper on Christmas. But their plans change when they find themselves actually growing to like their target and his family. Besides, the luckless merchant is apparently about to lose his shirt, as his business is unraveling. So, instead of robbing and killing him, the convicts with the help of their pet snake decide to help him, a mission that proves wildly complicated
Two workers on the dock discussing the break out. "They escaped last night almost killing a guard!?
Bogart on hearing this, "Almost killed him!...You mean he's not dead? I must be losing my sdtrenght?"

Casablanca, hands down!
"I often wonder why you don't return to America, Rick. Did you abscond with the church funds? Did you have an affair with a senator's wife? I like to think that you killed a man. It's the romantic in me."
"Perhaps if you told him I ran the second largest banking house in Amsterdam."
"Second largest? That wouldn't impress Rick. The leading banker in Amsterdam is now the pastry chef in our kitchen."
"We have something to look forward to."
"Carl, see that Major Strasser gets a good table, one close to the ladies."
"I have already given him the best, knowing he is German and would take it anyway."
"I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue."
Are you one of those people who cannot imagine the Germans in their beloved Paris?"
"It's not particularly my beloved Paris."
"Can you imagine us in London?"
"When you get there, ask me!"
"How about New York?"
"Well there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade."
"This is the end of the chase."
"Twenty thousand francs says it isn't."
"Is that a serious offer?"
"I just paid out twenty. I'd like to get it back."
"Make it ten. I'm only a poor corrupt official."
"I don't mind a parasite. I object to a cut-rate one."
"What in heaven's name brought you to Casablanca?"
"My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters."
"The waters? What waters? We're in the desert."
"I was misinformed."
"What is your nationality?"
"I'm a drunkard."
"That makes Rick a citizen of the world."
"Oh, please, monsieur. It is a little game we play. They put it on the bill, I tear up the bill. It is very convenient."
"Well, Rick, after tonight, I'll be through with the whole business and I am leaving finally this Casablanca."
"Who did you bribe for your visa? Renault or yourself?"
"Myself. I found myself much more reasonable."

Blake: A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Closing. Always be closing, always be closing.
Blake: You got leads. Mitch & Murray paid good money. Get their names to sell them. You can't close the leads you're given, you can't close shit, *you are* shit, hit the bricks pal, and beat it, 'cause you are going *out*.
Shelley Levene: The leads are weak.
Blake: "The leads are weak." The fucking leads are weak? You're weak. I've been in this business fifteen years...

Not exactly a one liner but the coolest I could think of. Pulp Fiction
Jules: The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
