"Now if you remember all great paintings have an element of tragedy to them. Uh, for instance if you remember from last week, the unicorn was stuck on the aircraft carrier and couldn't get off. That was very sad. " - Kids in the Hall

Sam Lowry: Excuse me, Dawson, can you put me through to Mr. Helpmann's office?
Dawson: I'm afraid I can't sir. You have to go through the proper channels.
Sam Lowry: And you can't tell me what the proper channels are, because that's classified information?
Dawson: I'm glad to see the Ministry's continuing its tradition of recruiting the brightest and best, sir.
Sam Lowry: Thank you, Dawson.
-Brazil

Uncle Chu: "China is here, Mr. Burton."
Jack: "What does that mean, huh, China is here? I don't even know what the hell that means!"
Jack: "What does that say?" (pointing to Chinese characters)
Wang: "Hell of boiling oil."
Jack (looking concerned): "You cannot be serious."
Wang: "Yeah, it just says keep out."
Jack: "What is this stuff?"
Egg: "Black blood of the Earth."
Jack: "What do you mean, oil?"
Egg: "No! I mean black blood of the Earth."

"Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet."

Jack Burton: Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, "Give me your best shot. I can take it."
Jack Burton: When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."
Great movie.

good ones ... BTiLC is always funny.There is also a very funny dialogue in Brazil between Lowry and his friend, Jack (played by Michael Palin) --- and I am paraphrasing (perhaps someone has the exact lines...
(as they part company)
Jack: Well, it was nice seeing you again.
Sam: Yah, say hello your wife and the twins.
Jack: (correcting him) Triplets!
Sam: Triplets. Wow, how time flies.
