Ripped straight off from Lazarus Churchyard. Four gangers burst into the PC's bedroom and empty a pair of pistols, and SMG and shotgun into him. They don't know he's a vampire so he basically automatically regenerates. He sits up, orientates himself and has a couple seconds of
whafuck before zeroing in and glaring at them. He was always a bit grouchy without sleep and plus they'd just ruined his favourite shirt that he'd been wearing.
In a kind of combination deadpan/pissed off threat, 'There will now be violence'. Proceeded to literally rip all four gangers limb from limb with his bare hands. Essence boost to quickness and strength can be nifty.
Whole violence thing kind of became a saying for us whenever things went mental.

This was years and world ago, but a shadowrun time I was GMing had taken some guys prisoner. I don't even remember why. But they had them tied up in their van, and couldn't really think what to do with them. So they leave them tied up in the van for six hours.
When the PCs get back to the van, I tell them it stinks of urine, because one of the hostages couldn't wait any longer.
The ork says, "What!? I'll cut his little prick off!"
I say, "How will shorting it prevent him from peeing?"
He says after a little thought, "It will if I cauterize it."

Actually, one of the classics in our group came from a long ago shadowrun, before I even joined the group. The GM at the time and an affinity for intra-PC conflict, and half of the PCs were on one side while the rest were on the other.
Anyway, one group of the PCs captures a lone PC from the other team. Now, this PC was getting the shaft from his teammates, and had been left, essentially, to die. The group is getting ready to torture/beat some information out of him when he takes a deep breath and says:
"Can I vent?"
And then he proceeds to tell the PCs everything he knows about anyone who has even remotely caused him pain, including the other PCs on his side and their plans.
To this day, "Can I vent?" is a fairly common statement for a PC who is upset with other PC actions and is being grilled for information

As the GM of that particular campaign, I have to admit it ranks as one of my all-time favourites too. The setting was perfect and the delivery (muttered through a toothy grin while the target exhausted himself running through knee-high snow) was wicked.
From the same game:
(note that Charlie, the PC, is a vampire and Will is a young hick who ran with a bunch of moderately successful rural vampire hunters before the PCs caught up with them)
Charlie (in calm, measured tones)
: What is it you men do here?
Will (panicked and whimpering)
: We... we kill vampires, man.
Charlie: Why do you do that, Will?
Will: To stop 'em from takin' over the world!
Charlie (whispering)
: You're too late...
From our
Mage: the Ascension game:
Lucky: Humility is for weenies.
Hamish: And hubris is for dead people.
Wolfsong: Welcome to the spirit world.
D: Oh my...
Lucky: Keep your arms inside the vehicle at all times and do NOT feed the animals.
D: I think I may have misunderstood something. What happened when–
Hamish: You misunderstood.
D: Yeah, but–
Hamish: You misunderstood.
D: Fine, okay, but when we–
Hamish: You misunderstood.
Bishop: Yes, I can pee champagne.
Lucky: You really need to teach me more about the ways of the spirits and the original forms.
Wolfsong: I have been teaching you. The question is, have you been learning?
Lucky: So let's do it now.
Hamish: We can't do it right now, we have to wait a while.
Lucky: I didn't mean
now now, I meant now.
Hamish: What?
Lucky: I meant now, not
now.
Wolfsong: So . . . later now?
Lucky: Exactly.
GM: Now, which car is this?
Hamish: The car he stole last night.
Bishop: No, not the car I stole last night, the other one that–-no, wait. It is the one I stole.
Lucky: Okay, the cops are after me... this is not good. I need to change my appearance, disguise myself somehow.
Wolfsong: I could go to work on you with my sacrificial knife.
Lucky: Stay the hell away from me, old man.
Bishop: Can you levitate us from the roof of this fifty-story building to the roof of that seventy-story building, 100 meters over?
Hamish: Sure, if I want paradox weevils to infest my genitals.
Bishop: Don't eat the boy's head, Hamish–we may need him later.
