Homer: Now, Bart. I don't like the geneva convention and more than you do.

Lisa: I can't believe you'd even allow such a weapon of death and destruction to sit in our driveway!

Grampa: Hey, if it weren't for tanks like that one, defending this country, you'd be speaking Australian!

Homer: Whare are you doing here? It's no the third Sunday of the month.

Grampa: I ain't here for dinner. I want my tank!

Homer: Oh, now it's your tank is it?

Grampa: It's always been my tank!

Homer: That's not how I remember it.

Aristotle Amadopolis: If it's a fight Montgomery Burns wants, we shall soon see who is Zeus and who is merely Odin!

Mr. Burns: I din't go looking for a fight, but if my friend is spoiling for a scuffle, I'm just the hake to give it to him, we will not stop until the streets run red with blood! Or if blood is unavailable, then sweat, tears, or a generic blood substitute.

Fredericks: Sir! The fight is over!

Waylon Smithers: The winner is...

Mr. Burns: Not now, Smithers! Is that the final bid for the weapons stockpile? Going, going... ...sold to Hank Scorpio!

Dr. Colossus: Aagh! What a week I'm having!

Waylon Smithers: Don't you care who won, sir?

Waylon Smithers: We won, sir.

Mr. Burns: Excellent!
