Who can forget Mae West and her timeless quote "Is that a banana in your pocket big boy or are you just happy to see me".
I think Eastwood probably holds the record for famous quotes.

Eastwood was great, but we probably remember Eastwood better because he's more recent. But IMHO Mae West was the all time best. The actual quote you referenced (she was speaking to a policeman) "Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

A few more:

When presented with two evils, I'll take the one I haven't tried before.

When I'm good I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better.

There are no good girls gone wrong, just bad girls found out.

I generally avoid temptation, unless I can't resist it.

Too much of a good thing can be taxing.

Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.

You only live once, but if you do it right once is enough.

One of my personal favorites, from Peter Lorre in The Maltese Falcon. Lorre, playing the little tough guy, has a gun pointed at Bogart. Bogart manages to punch Lorre in the face (knocking him out) and takes his gun.

Next scene, Lorre comes to, opens his eyes to see Bogart pointing the gun between his eyes from close range. Lorre looks around assessing his situation, then looks down at himself.

"You got blood on my shirt."
