Maya struggled to keep a smile from surfacing on her face as
she said, "I bet you call all women 'my love'."
"No," DJ replied honestly, "only the ones I love."

"Is that from a poem?" Rei asked.
"I think it will be," DJ replied.

"This is my head, and you weren't invited."

	"John, despite what you may have been told by the good people
at M&M Mars, chocolate is not a food group."
	"Fritos have corn in them.  That's a vegetable, I looked it
up."

	"Do the Canadians know about it?" asked Hyuuga.
	"Probably not," said Truss with a shrug.  "Given all the
-other- horribly dangerous stuff we have around here, who cares about
one piddling little H-bomb?"

"Now I'm afraid it's back to the lab for me. No doubt Dr. Akagi will give me a piece of her mind. A few more and I'll have collected the whole thing." - Gendo Ikari

"C'mon," replied DJ scornfully, taking another drink. "I can
pilot a 300-foot robot against the Forces of Evil, but I can't have a
beer? This -not- an incentive against me just pissing off back to Old
Blighty. I've a much bigger house back there, y'know, a manservant
I'm quite fond of, proper warm beer, and no job that involves... what
did dear Ritsuko-of-the-Ripcord call it, neural feedback." He gave an
exaggerated shiver. "What a bloody awful thought that is."
"You're threatening to leave the project and go back to
England if I won't let you drink -beer-?"
"No," replied DJ, "I'll drink it anyway, but if you won't
accept that, things'll get awfully tense."

"Makes you look like a candy cane," said DJ, which made Jon
fight to suppress howling laughter. "Not that I find that in the
least objectionable. You shouldn't get too close while wearing that
outfit, though. I'm a natural-born unfastener and that zip calls to
me."

--------

DJ turned to Ritsuko, and his smile became somewhat less warm.
"Ritsuko. Thank you... for nothing." Then, on impulse, his right
hand darted out; before she could draw back, he'd hooked his index
finger into the ring on her top's zipper tab and snapped his wrist
down, unzipping the garment and letting it fall open in one fell
swoop.
"Well, almost nothing," he added with a mirthless version of
his rakish grin as she flushed clear to the rounded tops of her
well-formed breasts. "Hah! I was right," DJ added, his grin becoming
a triumphant smirk. "Pink."

DJ turned to Ritsuko, and his smile became somewhat less warm.
"Ritsuko. Thank you... for nothing." Then, on impulse, his right
hand darted out; before she could draw back, he'd hooked his index
finger into the ring on her top's zipper tab and snapped his wrist
down. The zipper came down perhaps a quarter-inch, then jammed, and
DJ nearly broke his finger before the ring popped off the zipper tab.
"Well, almost nothing," he added with a mirthless version of
his rakish grin as he surveyed the pullring still hooked on his
finger. "I've always wanted a little metal ring... "
"Wardrobe!!" chirped Rei Ayanami cheerfully, and everyone
broke.

I hate to say this but the Sportcenter style recap episode is the best from NXE

Light the new avatar of chaos

The rest of dinner was uneventful, until just toward the end,
when the second refrigerator opened and Pen-Pen emerged to consume his
evening meal. Asuka froze, eyes wide with a combination of
mystification and faint fear, as the bird ignored her completely,
wolfed down his food, and returned nonchalantly to the refrigerator.
"Wah... wah... " Asuka tried to say.
"Problem?" asked DJ calmly.
"There's a penguin in the refrigerator," Asuka said, meeting
his amused gaze with a look of blank confusion.
"Yes, I know," said DJ.
"Why does he go in there?"
"Why do you go in there?" replied DJ.
"To get a glass of milk - but that's not why he goes in
there."
"Of course not!" said DJ scornfully. "Penguins are birds,
they can't drink cow's milk. -Think- before you ask these questions,
Asuka! Twenty points higher than me, thinks a penguin will drink
milk?" Shaking his head sadly, DJ went off to get ready for a bath,
and it wasn't until he was safely in his bedroom that Asuka realized
she'd been had.
"CROFT!!"

Nothin' beats a good "Real Genius" UF moment.

	"Oi, Pen-Pen, -that- isn't even a word!"
	"Waugh!"
	"... I'll be damned, it -is- a word."
	"DJ, the penguin's beating both of us."
	"Humbling, isn't it... "

	"You... you and Misato... "
	"Mm?"
	"But she's twice your age!" Ritsuko spluttered.
	"What's that got to do with anything?" DJ replied calmly,
having a sip of his drink.
	"What the hell were you thinking?!" Ritsuko demanded.
	DJ considered this for a moment.  "Well, often, it was
generally along the lines of, 'My, this is fun!'"  Ritsuko's angry
flush darkened as her already-flushed face tried to blush.  "But," DJ
continued, "most of the time, I was focused on the task at hand and
didn't have time for stray thoughts, except the odd 'Christ, where'd
the bloody penguin learn -that-' or 'How long have we been going at
this, anyway'."
	Ritsuko's expression melted from outrage to simple confusion.
	"What?!" she said.  "Pen-Pen was there too?!"
	DJ looked blank for a moment, then smirked.  "My dear doctor,
you have a very dirty mind."

"This is Xerxes," it said, in the tone of a general PA
announcement - but somehow, Natlateth knew it was speaking directly to
her. "The reactor core is off-limits to all Pit-spawned evil-doers.
Security forces are en route to terminate your hellbitch ass. We
apologize for any inconvenience. ... Ici Xerxes. Le coeur du réacteur
est interdit à tout intrus ayant été engendré par le Puits. Notre
service de securité se met en route pour mieux vous casser la pipe,
espèce de fils de pute de calisse de merde d'hostie d'enculeur.
Nous vous prions d'excuser tout inconvénient."

And as others have mentioned, the entire Sportscenter bit was hilarious.

A few choice selections from my quote files:

A voice broke into his reverie: "Ta-da!" Instinctively Jon turned his head to the right, whence came the voice, and found himself looking at something he could not immediately identify, mainly because, startlingly, it was only about two inches from the end of his nose after he turned his head. Drawing back a little, he was able to focus on it, and realized as he did that it was a swimsuit top. A red and white striped swimsuit top with a big silver zipper joining it together in front, complete with a big metal zipper tab. The mate to this top was in its appropriate place, too, now that he checked, and both were adorning the body of a cheerfully grinning Asuka Soryu-Langley.

"Well?" she demanded. "What do you think?"

Jon thought, thanks to the suit's colors and the horizontal stripe pattern, that she looked like a candy cane, but he knew saying so would only get him slapped, so he merely nodded and said, "Good."

"What about you, Mighty Adventurer? What do you think?"

DJ looked up, lowering his sunglasses and nodding appreciatively. "As I've said before, much better than a sharp stick in the eye."

"What do you think of the suit?" she asked, frowning.

"Makes you look like a candy cane," said DJ, which made Jon fight to suppress howling laughter. "Not that I find that in the least objectionable. You shouldn't get too close while wearing that outfit, though. I'm a natural-born unfastener and that zip calls to me."

"How can you stand him?" Asuka asked Jon as he, unprompted, handed Rei a towel.

"Experience," Jon and Rei chorused flatly.

"This feels unpleasantly like being drunk," DJ observed.

"What's so unpleasant about that?" Misato inquired wryly.

"Ask a glass of water," DJ replied.

"Hello, Prototype!" said the Ellison in charge. "We haven't met. My name is David, and I'm your superior in every perceptible way."

"The thing I love most about your family," Marina Kirishatova mused quietly to Jon, "is that you are all so modest."

"(Dude!)" San whispered to Shinji. "(God said I don't displease Him!)"

"(I heard!)" Shinji replied. "(That's great!)"

"(That's TERRIBLE!)" San hissed plaintively. "(I'll have to sin harder. You'll help me, right? We could start with some impure thoughts or something and work our way up.)"

"Today I've seen the Adversary restored to the Host and an Archangel punished for betrayal," Dominic said thoughtfully. His seven softly glowing eyes ripple-blinked at her from within the darkness of his hood. "The world, and the War, are reinventing themselves. Perhaps I shall have to do the same. As a corporeal poet once said, 'The times, they are a-changing.'"

While she absorbed that, he bowed slightly to her, turned, and took his leave.

It would not be until several days later that she realized who the corporeal poet was, and the knowledge that Dominic was familiar with his works would leave her feeling amused, but vaguely uneasy, for most of a day.

From Apotheosis now...

When he got his voice back, he asked Kirishatov (without
looking away from the EVA cage), "Why didn't you tell us about this
six months ago?"
"Six months ago it did not work," replied Kirishatov. "What
would have been point? 'Oh look! Glorious Soviet sculpture!' Times
have changed - I was not shot - but nevertheless, it did not work."

There might've been more, but I've only been re-reading the last chunk of NXE, and not really looking - this one struck me, though.
Well, this, and some of the bonus theatre stuff. Particularly the 'breadbox' bit.

"God! Ritsuko! I can't tell you how much I've wanted to do that. You're one of the loveliest women I've ever known. But there's more -to- it than motive, means
and opportunity." Mind you, doped up on God knows what and missing so
much blood, 'means' might be a little dodgy too - shut up! Shut up!
I'm working here, trying to clean up the bloody mess you've made!

DJ speaking to Ritsuko (and himself) in EXODUS 3:5 - CONNECTIONS III

"This is it, Ken," he muttered to himself as the voice of one
of SEELE's EVA pilots rang in his earphone, demanded to know why Jet
Alone had stopped fighting and gone idle. "Don't screw up. Don't
screw up."
Then he took a deep breath, reached down, flipped the comm set
to the NERV tactical band, and said the sort of thing he had wanted to
say since he was five years old:
"Super Techno Soldier Jet Alone: TAKE OFF!"

"... wha?" wondered Misato Katsuragi, now completely baffled
by the erratic behavior of the robot.

I have always loved this one from the Bonus Theater Out-Take Reel:

DJ looked up to the booth, and the message in Ikari's
expressionless eyes was clear: do what I want, or I'll send this
penguin to die in your place. For there was no doubt in DJ's mind
that if it went out there in its current condition, it would not
survive.
Shaking his head in disbelief, DJ wheeled around to glare at
Gendou. "You people are all completely mad!" he shouted. "Send the
penguin, see if I care."

I am confused... doesn't the 'except from NXE!' mean that all references should be non-NXE based? I admit that I just woke up but... will someone let me in on the joke!?

NXE: "Does this mean that someone has ordered you to be my friend?" - Just in case...

UF: "Such a shame when people be throwin' away a perfectly good white girl like that!" - Used twice that I can think of... Once in the symphony and once in a marvel/timelord story... I just woke up and won't research this.

except, excerpt, exempt, excrement... err: have a good day!

...cookies?

There have been threads like this in the UF forum. So this is like the other threads, except the quotes should come from NXE.
