    "But it's great shit, Mrs. Presky!"

    or

    "I'm high all right...but not on false drugs. I'm high on the real thing -- powerful gasoline, a clean windshield, and a shoeshine."

    that's the school spirit. "I'm going to dress for my bridge club" "Isn't that bridge built YET?"

    Actually, since I posted my "favorite lines", I guess the one I've repeated most often all these years is:

    "I may be an idiot, but at least I'm not the head idiot."

    and, of course,

    "How can you be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all."

    ah, memories...well, the ones i can remember anyway

    Rococo....you sleazy weasel. How did you get in here? You don't have a key!

    No - only half a key. I had to split it with the sound effects man.

    (Thanks Rocky)

    was never President of the United States.
