Geez...so many lines, so little time:

1) "They were late for a funeral," from "Dr. No" Bond to a passerby.

2) "How's my girl?" Bond to Q, about Little Nellie in "You Only Live Twice."

3) "Oh so *that's* who I killed. I guess that proves no one is invincible." Bond to Tiffany in "Diamonds Are Forever."

FRWL - "She should have kept her mouth shut."

TB - "Now don't you worry. I'll tell the chef."

DAF - "That's a nice liitle nothing you're almost wearing."

There are, of course, others but for Sean, these three are on top.

So many to choose from!

1."Oh, he blew a fuse"- in GF after after Oddjob gets fried

2."I'd say one of their aircraft is missing," or "Just isn't your day, is it?"- both from FRWL

3."I don't know. Perhaps it's the front doorbell?"- in TB, after he hits the fire alarm.

I've also gotta mention this one, even though Connery didn't actually say it:
Bond: "Saxby."
Whyte:"Burt Saxby?"
Bond:"Yes."
Whyte:"Tell him he's fired."

Here's mine, although there are so many Connery quips that are worth putting up here:
1. 'Shocking, definately shocking' (GF)
2. 'No well dressed man should be without one' (TB)
3. 'What are you doing here, looking for shells?'
'No, I'm just looking.'
As I said, there are so many other quips that I like, cz Connery is the king of quips!

1. "I think he got the point." (Thunderball)
2. "Shocking! Positively shocking!" (Goldfinger)
3. "She should've kept her mouth shut." (FRWL)

Honerable Mentions:
4. "Mind if my friend sits this one out? She's just dead!" (Thunderball)
5. Bond:"You swim like a man!"
Domino: "So do you!"
Bond: "Well, I've had quite a bit of practice." (Thunderball)
6. "Look, no hands!" (Dr. No)
7. "Correction, sir: I lost both legs, I did not die." (NSNA)
8. Goldfinger: "Hah. American motorists kill that many every two years."
Bond: "Yes, well, I've worked out a few statistics of my own. $15,000,000,000 in gold bullion weighs 10,500 tons. 60 men would take 12 days to load it onto 200 trucks. Now, at the most, you're going to have 2 hours before the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines move in and make you put it back." (Goldfinger)
9. Pussy: "Where's Goldfinger?"
Bond: "Playing his golden harp!" (Goldfinger)
10. Though not exactly a line of dialogue, the scene where Fiona Volpe asks Bond to give her somehting to put on and he gives her a pair of sandals always cracks me up.
