Not sure if these quotes properly capture the genius of the scene
Marge: I’ve got to tell Homer about this baby in just the right
way and at just the right time. Until then, please, keep
this to yourselves.
Patty: Oh, if he found out now, it would probably destroy him,
huh?
Marge: Oh, yes.
Patty+Selma: Gotta go!
Marge: Wait a minute! Wait, I know that look. Now promise you
won’t tell Homer.
Selma: Oh, we promise we won’t tell…Homer.
[they go to the phone book and open it to page one]
Patty: [dials 356756] Hello, is this A. Aaronson? It might
interest to you to know that Marge Simpson is pregnant
again.
[later]
Patty: [on the phone] Just thought you’d like to know, Mr.
Zykowski. [hangs up, sighs] There. Aaronson and Zykowski
are the two biggest gossips in town. In an hour, everyone
will know.

[SIZE=13px][FONT=lucida grande]Lisa: It doesn’t work.
Homer: Uh-huh.
Lisa: It’s just a stupid rock.
Homer: Uh-huh.
Lisa: But I don’t see any tigers around, do you?
Homer: …Lisa, I want to buy your rock.[/FONT][/SIZE]

From the facebook page? My mate just shared it!
Ya, classic stuff!
The one where Homer gets hair and becomes a big shot is on Sky 1 now.
Brilliant episode - his weird gay assistant Karl (not the black guy) steals the show.

I’m happy with my choice of thread for those quotes, mate.

What’s going on here bro?
Martin: [takes a seat at the front of the bus]
Bart: No!
Martin: No?
Bart: Only geeks sit in the front seat. From now on, you sit in the back row. And that’s just on the bus, it goes for school and church, too.
Martin: Why?
Bart: So no one can see what you’re doing!
Martin: Ooooh… I think I understand… [grabs pencil, starts writing] the potential for mischief varies inversely with one’s proximity to the authority figure! [Shows his equation to Bart]
Bart: Well, yeah, but don’t say it like that…
Did you bring an umbrella today, Mr. Simpson?
Probably my favourite episode.
My favorite quote of all time:
Marge: Homer, when are you going to give up this crazy sugar scheme?
Homer: Never, Marge. Never. I can’t live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors - oh, I’ll never be the darling of the so-called “City Fathers” who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about "What’s to be done with this Homer Simpson

That along with the Sanitation Commissioner and The Beer Baron are my three favourite episodes.
Homer: Bad bees. Get away from my sugar. Ow. OW. Oh, they’re defending themselves somehow.

Beer baron probably gets into top 5 alright. Along with stampy the elephant, the movementarians, and soft ball. Maybe the johnny cash talking coyote episode too.
Bart “So anyway, I says to Mabel says I…”

Agree on the others but not a huge fan of the Johnny Cash one.
I was struggling for 5th and stuck that one in for that one Bart quote which is possibly my single favourite Simpsons quote. I’ll replace it in my top 5 with the catburglar though.
On one of my frequent trips to the ground, I couldn’t help noticing he was wearing sneakers-for sneaking! Or something along those lines-good old Grandpa.
