    I think this is the correct answer, at least in English language.

    From the top of my head in roughly the right order:

    Tis but a flesh wound You're father smells of elderberries We want...a shrubbery Watery tarts throwing swords at people is no basis for a government She turned me into a newt On second thoughts, it's a silly place Bravely bravely ran away You have to know these things when you're a king you know

    It took growing up to get it, but I love the scene where the peasant is explaining to King Arthur that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is a terrible basis for a system of governance.

    Oh I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

    Aw man, I shot Marvin in the face.

    You know what they call a quarter pounder in Paris?

    And you will know that I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

    Also, dude, Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please.

    Aliens

    There is literally no competition. Every scene has at least 1 classic line. Aliens is also the gold standard reference used by all action movies since.

    I have several ol' reliables:

    Grandma's Boy: "high score? What's that mean?"

    Snatch: "when you're in reverse, things tend to come from behind ya."

    Tombstone: "i got two guns, one for each of ya."

    Big Lebowski: "he's a good man Jeffrey. And thorough."

    There's more, but those are probably my most quoted.

    Super Troopers

    From "The Snozzberries taste like Snozzberries!" to "BEARFUCKER! DO YOU NEED ASSISTANCE?!" almost every line in that movie is quotable and relevant to most situations.

    A lot of quotes from the Batman Dark Knight have become pretty common lingo or at least widely recognized, like "not the hero we deserve but the one we need" or "you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain" or even "some people just want to watch the world burn" or "it's not about the money, it's about sending a message", maybe also popularizing the whole "immovable object vs unstoppable force" etc.
