It's certainly one of the most memorable but I don't think it's the most famous. As for what might be, I would have to do some thinking on that one.

I can think of a lot of quotes that are as least as famous if not more so.

One of these days Alice, one of these days... Ralph Kramden
Stifle yourself Edith Archie Bunker
Aaaayyyy!!! Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli
God'll get you for that! Maude Findlay
Did I do that? Steve Urkel

I was trying to think of quotes that were used only once, not catchphrases.

It sure is one of the most memorable - and yes, it is very powerful, seeing Florida's stoic exterior shatter along with that bowl.

BTW: I woke up at 4am in the morning the other night and this scene was on my tv-lol Talk about timing

OK, how about "I cherish you people..." by Lou Grant on the MTM show?

Or..."Whaattt...dooooes...a..yelllllllooowww...liiiiiiight...meeeeeaan?" by Reverend Jim on Taxi.

Or..."As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!" by Mr. Carlson on WKRP in Cincinnati.

Or..."I know you always thought I hated you...but I love you..." by Mike Stivic to Archie on AITF.

Just a few off the top of my head.
