Memorable TV or movie line?

my first one was easy, here's a challenge for you:

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."​

Ok, how about this one:

When I was nineteen, I did a guy in Laos from a thousand yards out with a rifle shot in high wind. Maybe eight or even ten guys in the world could've made that shot.

Tom Selleck. Once again the title escapes me, but it's where he's hired by an Autralian ranch owner to kill Aborigines which he aint gonna do. This is right after he shoots him dead with a pistol which aint his main weapon.

Ian, this sounded very familiar, but I couldn't remember where, so I cheated and Googled... and that doesn't match at all what I would have guessed.

My Turn:

This quote was said multiple times in this movie: "It's not my fault!"

That's gotta be Buckaroo Banzai, right?
 
Now this is a fun thread!
