    Well, a bit of dialog is my fav:

    King Arthur: I am your king.

    Peasant Woman: Well, I didn't vote for you.

    King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.

    Peasant Woman: Well, how'd you become king, then?

    [Angelic music plays... ]

    King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.

    Dennis the Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

    Arthur: Be quiet!

    Dennis the Peasant: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

    LANCELOT: We were in the nick of time. You were in great peril.

    GALAHAD: I don't think I was.

    LANCELOT: Yes, you were. You were in terrible peril.

    GALAHAD: Look, let me go back in there and face the peril.

    LANCELOT: No, it's too perilous.

    GALAHAD: Look, it's my duty as a knight to sample as much peril as I can.

    LANCELOT: No, we've got to find the Holy Grail. Come on!

    GALAHAD: Oh, let me have just a little bit of peril?

    LANCELOT: No. It's unhealthy.

    GALAHAD: I bet you're gay.

    LANCELOT: No, I'm not.

    You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King," you and all your silly English K-nig-hts.

    I love this whole freakin' movie.

    The scene with the king explaining to the guards to stay in the room and make sure the prince doesn't leave:

    King: Where are you going?

    Guards: We're going with you.

    The first time I saw this I was laughing so hard I was crying and couldn't breathe - I was also a wee bit tipsy ;)
