What are your favorite lines from The Wizard of Oz?

Mine are:  "...she's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead,"
         "I'll get you my pretty and your little dog too."
        and, as the Wicked Witch of the West is dying:  "What a world!  What a World!"

     -- when the Wicked Witch of the West mocks Dorothy's fear -- "Auntie Em, Auntie Em -- come back! I'll give you Auntie Em, my Pretty!!!"



     -- it starts at the 0:32 mark but this entire little scene is really memorable for me -- anything Margaret Hamilton does in this movie is perfect to me. If I had to choose, I would choose her performance in this movie as the most perfect performance I've seen in a movie.

    Oh --  and the little "Oh!" Dorothy yelps just as her house lands in OZ -- at the 0:11 seconds mark.

    ... And, "That's a horse of a different color."

      Like you, one of mine is:

    I'll get you, my pretty, and that goes for your little dog too.

    Others:

    Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas any more. 

    Follow the the yellow brick road.

    [I don't know this one verbatim, it's when the Scarecrow gets his diploma, he recites a mathematical quotation.]

    The witch is dead, the witch is dead!

    "Remember my sentimental friend, 'The heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.'"

    Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

    "Hey Henry, load that pile of pig crap and dump it behind the barn."  ( this line is very hard to hear because it is muffled)
