Basically anything said by Grandma is great.

I'm going to open a cross dressing store and name it "Susan B. Anthony"

all i know is that i enjoyed the way Barbara Land gave her speech during the AA Meeting...she was so adorable!

"I am an alcoholic, but I haven't had a drink in three months!" (and the audience applauded, and she laughed and went on with her speech)...
I just love the scene... :)

"I guess I'm happy when I don't want to be anywhere else but where I am"

Basically any line said by the General, The President, the Grandma & Natalie Portman was pure gold. I think the "They blew up Congress!" line is probably the funniest line in the movie besides "Guess it wasn't the dove" & "You're Tom Jones, right?" those had me in hysterics. Also, when The President says "Awww." when the General gets stepped on. The Grandma telling Taffy: "You're a nice girl but don't ever let this happen again."

"I am the ultimate badass, you do not wanna `*beep*` wit' me!" Hudson in Aliens.

I'm paraphrasing to the best of my memory but I've always loved these lines:

"Should I get grandma?"
"Forget grandma! She's half-way to space already!"

*gasps* "...The Nancy Regan chandelier"

And this isn't a quote but I love at the end when Tom Jones is standing on that mountain and an eagle just lands on his arm randomly.

Badger my ass its probably Milhouse

The line Where the kid says "What about Grandma?" and then the father's response of "She's halfway to outer space already!" absolutely killed me lol

You give up pork? One of the best lines in the film.

Any of the lines about the Martians breathing nitrogen or needing special chewing gum to supplement it. Nitrogen is by far the most prevalent element (80%) in our own atmosphere!
