"Monty Python's Life of Brain" (1979) also known as "Life of Brian" is a satirical film by the Monty Python comedy troupe about a man who is born at the same time as (and next door to)
Jesus, and whose life parallels his.
Choosing one "favorite line" from Life of Brian is a hard task for me...there are so many great lines in that movie; but I'll go with:
"All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"

when the graffiti writer is trying to write "Romans Go Home".
As a former Latin student I find it hilarious.

REG: What?!
LORETTA: It's my right as a man.
JUDITH: Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
LORETTA: I want to have babies.
REG: You want to have babies?!
LORETTA: It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.
REG: But... you can't have babies.
LORETTA: Don't you oppress me.
REG: I'm not oppressing you, Stan. You haven't got a womb! Where's the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!
