It's definitely hard to pick with Ork Quotes. Most of my favorites are from Dawn of war when Gorgutz is bantering with the Other leaders before he crushes them.
another one I liked was "we better be going to a fight".

Something from the 3rd edition Ork Codex. I don't have it here, right now so I have to paraphrase:

Orks never loose. If we win, we win. If we die, we're dead, so that doesn't count. And if we run away, we can always come back for another fight.

I like these both

"Oomans are pink and soft, not tough and green like da Boyz. They'z all the same size too, so they'z always arguing about who's in charge, 'cos no way of telling 'cept fer badges an' ooniforms and fings. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it. Wot a lot of mukkin' about if yer asks me. An' while they'z all arguing wiv each other over who's da boss, da Orks can clobber da lot "

"The Orks are the pinnacle of creation. For them, the great struggle is won. They have evolved a society which knows no stress or angst. Who are we to judge them? We Eldar who have failed, or the Humans, on the road to ruin in their turn? And why? Because we sought answers to questions that an Ork wouldn't even bother to ask! We see a culture that is strong and despise it as crude."
-Uthan the panzee

"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavors, to crush utterly his achievements and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."

If it's this one:

'Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!'

It's in the current codex too.

I'd say my favorite 40k quote is a tie between anything I've ever said.

I don't know, metal boxes?

"Nevermore"
Probably the cheesiest 40k quote/reference. My poor poor Raven Guard....

1.)Each must find their own way. if those in our heartland had witnessed the savagries of the void as have we they would know this. the hand of each of the great starfarers is turned against the other; none will join their strength to gether just to see their ancient enemies prosper. neather should we. -Farsight.

If all else fails: duck. As a defensive stratagem it's unreliable, but incredibly reassuring for a moment or two.

That the one?

Mine is this:

"To the Darkness I bring fire. To the ignorant I bring faith. Those who welcome these gifts may live, But I will visit nought but death and eternal damnation on those who refuse them."

Can't listen to it right now, but that must be 'Sanity is for the weak'

What is victory? Is it to defeat your enemy
on the field of battle? Is it to simply repulse
his armies and slay his misguided warriors?
No, this is only the very beginning!

True victory is to crush your foes utterly, to
shatter his armoured legions and run down his
fleeing troops as they scatter. Pursue them to
their lairs and burn them out. Burst into his
unholy temples, smash down his icons and
topple his foul idols. Burn his heretical works
and leave no stone upon stone. Slaughter his
followers, their families and their livestock lest
any of their taint remain. And when that is
done, put the ruins to the torch.

Any that have dealt with them or given them
succour must be obliterated, for memory is
insidious and though you have crushed their
will and their bodies they may yet return.
Send warrior scribes to eccise the records of
their name, expunge their deeds from the
annals of history and remove even the memory
of your foe's existence. Only then have you
truly won.

This is the meaning of victory.

If you are not trying to kill eachother, you're not trying hard enough.

Said by a DKoK watchmaster to PDF recruits during their HtH combat.

From Dead Men Walking

"If a man dedicates his life to good deeds and the welfare of others, he will die unthanked and unremembered. If he exercises his genius bringing misery and death to billions, his name will echo down through the millennia for a hundred lifetimes. Infamy is always more preferable to ignominy."
-Fabius Bile

"Your Emperor does not rule here, Human."

"The Emperor rules all, alien. You'll learn that soon enough."

That was just epic...

"What do Humans know of our pain? We have sung songs of lament since before your ancestors crawled on their bellies from the sea."

Really, anything that Eldrad has said is epic.
