Go banana!
"I'm tired of being a wannabe league bowler. I wanna be a league bowler."
"Give me the…..thing……that…..you dig…..food…..with."

Must've been that BEAN I had for dinner.
The cat burglar episode:
Lisa: "Wow dad, exactly what you said would happen came true."
Homer: "I know honey, I'm scared too."
