What's Your Favorite Broadway Line?

Not wanting to start a 'favorite Wicked line' thread, in all honesty the best line on Broadway right now is Glinda's entrance - 'It's good to see me, isn't it'. Chenoweth just delivered it *perfectly*.. few people can pull that off.. I can see why Brantley raved about her, quite rightly.

Ummmm...

"To hand crafted beers made in local breweries..." -I don't know what it is, but really random quotes from Rent give me chills. Anyway, I love when this line starts, it gets the song going.

"It's like being tied to the hood of a yellow rental truck, being packed in with fertilizer, and fuel oil, pushed over a cliff by a suicidal Mickey Mouse!"

"What was it about that night? Connection, in an isolating age. For once the shadows gave way to light. For once I didn't disengage..."

"And goodness knows, the Wicked's lives are lonely, goodness knows, the Wicked die alone." -This whole song gives me chills.

"One question haunts and hurts, too much, too much to mention. Was I really seeking good, or just seeking attention?"

"I love him, but everyday I'm learning, all my life I've only been pretending. Without him, this world will go on turning, a world that's full of happiness, that I have never known..."


Okay, so they aren't lines, they're lyrics. But I couldn't think of any lines. The Glinda one that JakeB said rocks, though.

JakeB, I agree, that line was funny when Kristin said that. I also completely agree with everything that elphie is perky said.

I am so glad this thread is getting attention

Oh! I also love in Hairspray when they are in the record shop and Velma goes to Edna, "Oh...so you're what spawned THAT...*pause*" and Edna goes "Excuse me????" and Velma goes "I guess you're proof that the watermelon doesn't fall far from the vine..." and Edna goes "Tracy...hold mommy's waffles!". Lol. J.P. does a fantastic job with those lines.
