I turn to Bioshock, which is chuck full of great quotes. "A man chooses; a slave obeys." Or the intro thing by Andrew Ryan, if only it wasn't too long:
"I am Andrew Ryan, and I'm here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? 'No!' says the man in Washington, 'It belongs to the poor.' 'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'It belongs to God.' 'No!' says the man in Moscow, 'It belongs to everyone.' I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... Rapture, a city where the artist would not fear the censor, where the scientist would not be bound by petty morality, Where the great would not be constrained by the small! And with the sweat of your brow, Rapture can become your city as well." - Long one I know but, I just said wow at this moment in Bioshock when you see Rapture for the first time."
These sort of quotes are actually meaningful on some level, and are worth sharing with those who might not be fans of games. This is opposed to the wealth of hilarious, awesome, or nostalgic quotes that non-gamers might not appreciate. For instance, anything from one of the myriad lists like this one: http://www.gamingexcellence.com/features/26.shtml
Of course, part of this is because I don't know whether the person judging the quotes will understand half the ones I want to submit, hah.

Considering that "You? No!" is a quote, I don't think we need worry about context overmuch.
