Mine is from The Odd Couple:

Oscar (to Felix): You leave me little notes on my pillow. I told you a hundred-and-sixty-eight times I can’t .. stand .. little notes on my pillow! ‘We are all out of Corn Flakes. -F.U.’

I can’t pick a fave, I loved everything I saw of his, whether on Broadway or in a high school auditorium, or on the silver screen. What a talent!

I loved it when the Thing from Roger Corman’s “Fantastic Four” referenced him.
You know, the scene where he runs around on the street, and everyone else is running away from him, scared?
It is then he exclaims “I just wanted to watch a Neil Simon play!”
