I too was bitten by it's charm when I first saw it. Before I just passed it off as a kid's movie but an (adult) friend of mine made me sit down and we started watching it... since then...
------------------
ANCIENT BOOER: Boo! Boooo! Boooo! Booo!
BUTTERCUP: Why do you do this?
ANCIENT BOOER: Because you had love in your hands, and you gave it up.
BUTTERCUP (distraught): But they would have killed Westley if I hadn't done it.
ANCIENT BOOER: Your true love lives and you marry another --
(to the crowd) -- True love saved her in the Fire Swamp, and she treated it like garbage. And that's what she is, the Queen of Refuse! So, bow down to her if you want. Bow to her. Bow to the Queen of Slime, the Queen of Filth, the Queen of Putrescence. Boo! Boo! Rubbish! Filth! Slime! Muck! Boo! Boo!
-----------------------------

You're really that smart?
Let me put it this way: have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?
Yes
Morons.
----------
You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line."

(He laughs and cackles until he falls over dead.)
------------
BUTTERCUP: On the high seas, your ship attacked, and the Dread Pirate Roberts never takes prisoners.

MAN IN BLACK: (explaining as a teacher might)
I can't afford to make exceptions. Once word leaks out that a pirate has gone soft, people begin to disobey you, and then it's nothing but work, work, work, all the time.

Those and many more such classics...

Even though we're letting the thread drift some and I really should say something about that, I have to add this bit of dialogue:

Fezzik: You just shook your head! That doesn't make you happy?
Westley: Turns to Fezzik. My brains, his steel, and your strength, against sixty men, and you think a little head jiggle is supposed to make me happy? Hmmmm? Fezzik smiles. I mean, if we only had a wheelbarrow, that would be something.
Inigo: Where did we put that wheelbarrow the Albino had?
Fezzik: Over the Albino, I think.

I LOVE the movie "The Princess Bride." That's pretty much the only one I'll watch over and over again if given the chance.
