Ned Flanders: Can't you morons do ANYTHING right?!
Crowd: * Gasp*

"Yeah, (air quotes) 'Bart'."

Homer: No.
Horst: Once again, I have failed. (gets out a translation book) We request the pleasure of your company for a free exchange of ideas.
Homer: (screams and runs out)

Bart: So long you have no follow up questions, then yes.. yes we do.

Bart: The Constitution? I'm pretty sure the PATRIOT Act killed it to ensure our freedoms.

Abe: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis?
Homer: No.
Abe: Unsatisfying sex life?

Lisa the Simpson

Abe: Oh, your dad used to be smart as a monkey! But then his mind started getting lazy, and now he's durab as a chimp. (shortly after) Your brother's coming along nicely. Look at Bart's homework. Back when he was your age, he was smart as a chimp!

^ This joke doesn't get mentioned a lot, but I like it. So which is it, Grampa: Are chimps smart, or durab?

^ Even in the post-classic seasons, Agnes is usually pretty reliable for comedy. I love the way she says "Possible Police".

From Lisa the Skeptic:

"Your honor, over the coming weeks and months..."

^ I love how the lawyer openly admitted that the trial would waste months of everybody's time. It's not a joke that gets mentioned too much, but I love it.

From Homer's Phobia:

"So this is your sick mother?"
"Don't do this to me, Waylon!"

From Lisa Gets an "A":

"Nasty business, that zero. Naturally, Harvard's doors are now closed to you. But we'll pass on your application to... (snickers) Brown."
"Mmm, heck of a school. Weren't you at Brown, Otto?"
"Yup. Almost got tenure, too!"

From The Canine Mutiny:

"Well crying isn't gonna bring him back. Unless your tears smell like dog good. So you can either sit here and eat can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food for your dog to come back, or you can go out there and find your dog!"

^ Classic Homer string.

"(worried) Oh, Mindy, we have to fight our temptations!"
"No Homer, let's do it. LET'S CALL ROOM SERVICE!"
"Oh."

^ A bit overexposed, since it also appeared in the second clip show, but still a great unexpected joke.

From Mobile Homer:

"Haw haw! People died in those shirts!"

^ One of my favorite Nelson "Haw haw"s.

From Mountain of Madness:

"Only who can prevent forest fires?" (Bart presses a button) You pressed "you," referring to me. That is incorrect. The correct answer is "you"."

^ A similar joke appeared in season 12's "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes"

From Simpson Tide:

"Milhouse, my mom wears earrings. Do you think she's cool?"
"No. I THINK SHE'S HOT! Sorry, it just slipped out."

From Realty Bites:

"I'm tired of being cooped up in this house all the time."
"Open a window!"

^ In fact, that whole exchange is amusing, such as Homer saying he already went to the azalea festival because Lenny really wanted to go, and his sarcastic "FrienRAB of the Library".

From The Haw-Hawed Couple:

"Who will spot the playful abalone? The mighty winkle? I think it might be you, Sherri." (Sherri gasps in excitement)

^ Love how excited Sherri is about looking for fish.
 
Oh, one of my favorite quotes of all time, from 22 Short Films About Springfield. Skinner is trying to cook dinner for Superintendent Chalmers, but it catches fire, and Chalmers notices from the dining room.

Chalmers: Good God, what is happening in there?
Skinner: [PAUSE] Aurora Borealis?
Chalmers: Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? A this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within your kitchen?
Skinner: ...yes.
Chalmers: [PAUSE]May I see it?
Skinner: Oh, uh... No.

Cracks me up just thinking about it.

Marge: Mr. Burns, I've had enough of your "posing"; I can finish the portrait myself!
Burns: Thank goodness. Another day in this suburban nightmare and I would've needed half a white Valium.

"If this movie had one flaw, it is that it was the WORST. MOVIE. EVER."
 
My all-time favorite quote is from "Summer of 4 ft. 2", after Lisa's frienRAB decorate the car with sea shells

Lisa: This is the greatest thing anyone has ever-

Skinner: Well, why don't I drink out of a toilet bowl. (leaves)
Hutz: He'll be back.
