August: Osage County had a whole slew of them, too many to quote here.
I also love:

Valium, you mean?
I didn't love that line too much, probably because I was expecting it after seeing the Tshirt in the lobby before the show. Still trying to think about my favorite line.

"No, Little Sally, dreams are meant to be crushed -- it's nature's way." Officer Lockstock in URINETOWN: THE MUSICAL
Somehow it's depressing and hilarious at the same time.

Just about every one of Joanne's lines in Company, but especially:
"Smoking may be the only thing that separates us from the lower forms"
ROBERT: "Like everyone else"
JOANNE: "Who else?"
ROBERT: "Everybody that ever fell in love and got married"
JOANNE: "I know both couples and they're both divorced"

The line about sex and bacon - and one of my favorites and first I thought of when I saw this thread - is from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
Also:
"I was raised to be charming, not sincere." -- Into the Woods
There are more than I can count from 1776:
"The whole earth was created in a week!" "Some day, you must tell me how you did it." "Disgusting."
"New York abstains...courteously." "Mr. Morris, what the hell goes on in New York!?"
"Awww, that was a new one."
"Whoring and drinking."
"Madman!" "LAWYER!"
"Rhode Island passes."
"Not everyone's from Philadelphia."
There are so many....

Some of my favorites were already listed, so I'll add from Proof....
Answering a request to TELL them what the notebook-sized proof is to prove she wrote it, the character says, "It's not a MUFFIN RECIPE!"
