It's from TV not a movie, and it is the truth.

Luke: I thought it was a nice round number."

Dagline: "we're gonna get us a couple of farm girls that knows what's fer"....

Strother Martin (Captain)
Captain: "Now, I can be a good guy, or I can be one real mean sum-bitch. It's all up to you."

You guys have already mentioned some classic ones, so here's my off-the-top-of-my-head list as a work in progress...

The Empire Strikes Back
Darth Vader: No, I am your father.

Han Solo: No time to discuss this with a committee.
Princess Leia: I am not a committee!

Han Solo: You like me because I'm a scoundrel. There aren't enough scoundrels in your life.
Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm nice men.
Princess Leia: No, you're not. You're...
[they kiss]

Princess Leia: I love you.
Han Solo: I know.


Aliens
Hudson: Hey Vasquez… you ever been mistaken for a man?
Vasquez: No. Have you?


Beverly Hills Cop
Axel Foley: What? Y'all the second team?
Detective McCabe: We're the first team.
Detective Foster: Yeah, and we're not gonna fall for a banana in the tailpipe.
Axel Foley: [mocking him] You're not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe? It should be more natural, brother. It should flow out, like this - "Look, man, I ain't fallin' for no banana in my tailpipe!" See, that's more natural for us. You been hanging out with this dude too long.

Mikey: It's like a world famous place, ya ever hear of it?
Alex Foley: Yeah, I buy all my art there.


Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Harry: Don't worry, I saw Lord of the Rings. I'm not going to end this 17 times.


The Nice Guys
Fred's Widow: It's my husband, he's gone missing.
Holland March: Missing?
Fred's Widow: I'm terribly worried, it's just Fred's never gone this long before.
[March casually looking around room when he notice ash urn with Fred's name on it]
Holland March: How long has he been missing?
Fred's Widow: Since the funeral.
Holland March: Well, I can start right away.

Jackson Healy: Marriage is buying a house for someone you hate.

That's a great one. I love that movie.

Stripes:
Psycho: The name's Francis Sawyer... but everyone calls me Psycho. Any of you guys call me Francis... and I'll kill you.
Leon: Ooooooh.
Psycho: You just made the list, buddy. And I don't like nobody touching my stuff. So just keep your meathooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff... I'll kill you. Also I don't like nobody touching me. And any of you homos touch me... and I'll kill you.
Sergeant Hulka: Lighten up, Francis. You're all in this together. One of these men may save your life one of these days, you understand that?
Winger: Then again maybe one of us won't.
