Most of the lines you folks have listed are funny on their own, and  I agree 
with the vast majority of them.  Along with all the very funny  lines y'all 
have mentioned, I like some of the dramatic ones quite well,  especially the way 
Dan delivers them (so I'm a Harry freak, no apologies  here!  :->)  One of my 
fav's has been mentioned, when Ron has the  nightmare about spiders wanting 
him to tapdance, and Harry says, "You tell those  spiders, Ron."  Another -- 
When Stan Shunpike mentions Voldemort, Harry  says, "Yeah, HIM I've heard of."  
I just love Dan's delivery of lots of  lines.  When Aunt Marge says, "You're 
still here?" he snarls "Yes" so  perfectly, and when he's yelling at Vernon 
before he leave (Vernon:  "You  can't do magic outside of school!"  Harry:  
"Yeah?  Just try  me!"
 
And I love the twins banter, the way they complete each other's  sentences, 
such as in the Leaky Cauldron when they're giving Ron a hard time  about 
showing the picture of the family in Egypt and they list all the people  Ron's shown 
it to, or when they capture Harry (my fav. line there, "Bless him"  -- the 
way they deliver it is so cute!) and talk over each other to explain the  map.  

I like the line in the Burrow (CoS) when Arthur asks Harry very seriously,  
"Exactly what is the purpose of a rubber duck?"  (or something like  that).  I 
read somewhere that most of that scene was improvised and Arthur  would change 
the line every scene -- the rubber duck one was the one they stayed  with.  
Can't remember where I read that now, but it's one of those "fun  facts" I get 
a kick out of.
