This isn't a one liner, but I thought it was pretty funny.
The following is from Max Payne. Before Max enters a room, he often hears snippets of conversation from the npc's. This was from a television show one of the gangsters was watching.
Previously on Lords and Ladies. - announcer
Lady Amelia, Markia Valentine asks for and audience.
Thank you Lawrence. - lady amelia
My lady? - markia valentine
My lord? - lady amelia
And now an all new episode of Lords and Ladies. - announcer
cue cheezy music
My lady? - markia valentine
My lord? - lady amelia
My lady there is a matter of great importance which I must bring to your attention. - markia valentine
My lord, there is? - lady amelia
Indeed, my lady, there is indeed. From the very first moment we met upon that distant forest path, there has been sunlight in the autumn leaves blazing like the colors of your hair. - markia valentine
My lord, you should not speak so. - lady amelia
But my lady, I must. I must. - markia valentine
My lord, no! I...this cannot be. - lady amelia
But why my love? Why? - markia valentine
My lord it is too dreadful. Do not force me to speak the words. - lady amelia
My lady I beg of you. I must know. I would rather die than not know. - markia valentine
Yes my lord, we should both be dead for this shame is too great for the living. My lord, I am... My lord, I am your long lost sister. - lady amelia
cue cheezy music
Oh...sniff...Lady Amelia...so tragic. Will they ever get together? - teary eyed gangster

Damn all of the goof ones I can think of require having played the game to get.
From the Rink announcer in NHL 2002:
"This is message to the spy in our audience. Don't trust the smiling penguin. I repeat don't trust the smiling penguin. Good Luck mr spy."
Don Taylor had some great ones in NHL 2002.
"Tie Game, Close contest or boring non event, you decide."
"He put in the top shelf where suzie keeps the acne cream" Don
"Whose Suzie?" Jim
"Just some kid with troubled skin jim" Don
Not a one liner but when serious sam wistles the indiana jones theme when the boulder rolls by.

This is a big favourite of mine:
"You feel less confused now."

Nethack quotes
Now that's got me started on Nethack quotes:
Quotes I like because they don't happen to me in RL:
"You feel in control of yourself."
"you feel good enough to do it again"
Common quotes that players should recognise
"You feel very firm."
"You feel feverish."
"You feel a strange mental acuity."
Reading when confused
"You feel entrapped."
"You identify this as an identify scroll."
"Your helmet is covered by a shimmering golden shield."
Odd quotes
"You are a statue"
"The gray unicorn graciously accepts your gift." (actually not a good thing)
"Your nose tingles and you smell food."
You play too much if you recognise this last one
"Yecch! This stuff tastes like poison. But in fact it was bioloically contaminated guava juice."

It was. Very dated now, of course. If you get it, I wish every joy in getting it to work with a modern O/S.
Don't get the recent 3D scolling thing, DN: Manhattan Project. It's awful. And don't wait for DN Forever, it's been in development for like 4 years (and will probably be rubbish when/if it comes out).

Minsc again. And yes, technically it's a one-liner.
"Yes! Lead evil by example, and one day we need no longer put the boots to those that stray off the path of goodness into the muck and bile of villainy and track great bloody footprints across our lily white tiles! Boo will have clean wood shavings you evil bastards!"
To which your only available response is "Ooooh kaaaay."

Any time I play nethack, I am surprised by encountering a message that indicates that the programmers have specially coded for my current situation.
This time, I put on my levitation boots while caught in an energy vortex and got the message:
"You spiral up into the energy vortex"

I know this thread mainly has video game quotations, but I think we could be enlightened by some Magic: the Gathering flavor text quotations, some of which are cool-sounding and a few of which are even slightly amusing. (The bold is the name of the card, the italics is the quote in question.)
Juzam Djinn:
"Expect my visit when the darkness comes. The night I think is best for hiding all." -- Ouallada
Obsianus Golem:
"The foot stone is connected to the ankle stone, the ankle stone is connected to the leg stone . . ." -- Song of the Artificer
Dwarven Miner:
"Fetch the pestridder, Paka, we've got dwarves in the rutabagas!"
Reparations:
"Sorry I burned down your village. Here's some gold."
Grizzly Bears:
Don't try to outrun one of Dominia's Grizzlies; it'll catch you, knock you down, and eat you. Of course, you could run up a tree. In that case you'll get a nice view of the surrounding area before it knocks the tree down and eats you.
The Cheese Stands Alone:
The meat, on the other hand, receives frequent visitors.
Incinerate:
"Never taunt an embermage, 'What are you going to do about it?' " -- Akin, seasoned askari
Northern Paladin:
"Look to the north; there you will find aid and comfort." -- The Book of Tal
Wall of Wood:
Everyone knows that to ward off trouble, you knock on wood. But sometimes it's better to make a wall out of the wood and let trouble do the knocking.
Worship:
"Believe in the ideal, not the idol." -- Serra
Goblin Balloon Brigade:
"From up here we can drop rocks and arrows and more rocks!"
"Uh, yeah boss, but how do we get down?"
Goblin Digging Team:
"From down here we can make the whole wall collapse!"
"Uh, yeah boss, but how do we get out?"

Hallucinating and weak from hunger, I pray...
Quote:
|
You begin praying to Ishtar.
You are surrounded by a shimmering light. You finish your prayer.
You feel that Ishtar is pleased as punch. Your stomach feels content.
There's a tiger in your tank. Looks like you are back in Kansas.
Your double-headed axe named Cleaver softly glows with a light blue aura.
