This has been one of my favorite movies to watch, and I have seen it many times. I was thinking of my favorite quotes from the movie recently and was wondering what some other peoples' favorite quotes are from this movie.

Some of mine:

Albert Brooks' job offer -
Albert Brooks: "I can't accept anything less than $65,000."
Then at the interview -
Interviewer: "We're prepared to offer you $49,000."
Albert Brooks: "I'll take it!"

When Rip Torn was having lunch with Albert Brooks -
Rip Torn: "You wouldn't understand. And I don't mean to insult you. I mean that literally."

Albert Brooks talking about his snowmobile: "And fourth, pardon the expression, but your balls vibrate for 3 weeks afterwards."

What made this part even better was them showing the judge's somewhat shocked look the Bob Diamond doing this big fake smile trying to make it seem like what Brooks had said wasn't embaressing.
