Favorite quote from Portal/Portal 2?

Mine is: "I hope you brought something stronger than a portal gun this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid you're about to become the immediate "past-president" of the Being Alive club, hah hah." -GLaDOS

Favourite unused quote from Portal 1:
"Maybe you think you're helping yourself. But you're not."

Favourite unused quote from Portal 2:
"I'm going to be honest with you. Not fake honest, like before, but real honest, like you're incapable of."

The lab boys say that might be a fear reaction. I'm no psychiatrist, but coming from a bunch of eggheads who wouldn't recognize the thrill of danger if it walked up and snapped their little pink bras, that sounds like projection.

Mine is:
"Hello! This is the part where I kill you!" -Wheatley

and my favorite unused dialoge is:
"I was getting SO lonely down here. It's good to finally hear someone else's voice. I'm kidding, of course. God, I hate you. I was so bored, I actually read the entire literary canon of the human race. Ugh. I hope YOU didn't write any of them. Oh. It's you. Go away. Come to gloat? Go on. Get a goooood lonnnnng look. Go on. Get a big fat eyeful. With your big fat eyes. That's right. A potato just called your eyes fat. Now your fat eyes have seen everything. In case you were wondering: Yes. I'm still a potato. Go away. Wait. Why DID you trundle over here? You're not HUNGRY, are you? It's hard to see, what's that in your hand? Knowing you it's a deep fat fryer. Stay back. What are you doing? Put me back this instant." -Potato GLaDOS

I like this from portal one:
You think you're doing some damage? Two plus two is... ten. IN BASE FOUR! I'M FINE!

An unused one from Portal: 'You can't hurt me...' Mrs. McLain's delivery on that one was just perfect.

Also, an unused line from the second game; 'Did you ever stop to think that eventually there comes a point where your name gets mentioned for the very last time? Well here it is: I'm going to kill you, Chell.'

Also, GLaDOS's gibberish is HILARIOUS.

I assume you mean the babble throughout the final boss battle in the original?
God, there was so much potential foreshadowing in there that they never did anything with. :/

Ah, not quite. Hang on, I'll find it for you...

EDIT: Here we go. You'll know when it starts.

From what I can tell from the game's scripts, it was originally going to be used when you pressed the stalemate resolution button. As one commenter said: 'This is what happens when you put a magnet to GLaDOS's head.'.

My favorite quote from Portal 1: "Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit, and then I said, 'goodbye!', and then you were like, 'NO WAY', and then I was all, 'we pretended we were going to murder you'? That was great..."

It's hard to pick one favorite, but here are a few Cave Johnson lines that I love:

"They say great science is built on the shoulders of giants - not here. At Aperture we do all our science from scratch; no hand holding."

"The lab boys just informed me that I should not have mentioned the control group, they're telling me I ought to stop making these pre-recorded messages - that gave me an idea: make more pre-recorded messages. I pay the bills here, I can talk about the control group all damn day!"

"Oh, in case you got covered in that repulsion gel, here's some advice tha lab-boys gave me: [paper rustling] do not get covered in the repulsion gel."

I love Cave Johnson quotes the most. My best 3 are:

1)Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. Yes you, box your stuff, out the front door, parking lot, car, goodbye.

2)Just a heads up: that coffee we gave you earlier had fluorescent calcium in it so we can track the neuronic activity in your brain. There's a slight chance the calcium could harden and vitrify your frontal lobe. Anyway, don't stress yourself thinking about it. I'm serious, visualizing the scenario while under stress actually triggers the reaction.

3)Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

The fact sphere has some good ones too:
"If you have trouble with simple counting, use the following mnemonic device: one comes before two comes before 60 comes after 12 comes before six trillion comes after 504. This will make your earlier counting difficulties seem like no big deal."
"Avocados have the highest fiber and calories of any fruit. They are found in Australians."
"Whales are twice as intelligent, and three times as delicious, as humans."
