Which movie quote is more famous?

In an intense game of Pass the Popcorn movie trivia, my wife and I got into a heated argument about which movie quote is more famous.

(A) "Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me." -- The Graudate

or

(B) "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." -- Gone With the Wind.

Discuss.

Here's AFI top 10:

1. Citizen Kane
2. Casablanca
3. Godfather
4. Raging Bull
5. Singin' in the Rain
6. Gone with the Wind
7. Lawrence of Arabia
8. Schindler's List
9. Vertigo
10. Wizard of Oz


Now I've seen all of them except Raging Bull (one of those gaps I mentioned), and while I'd certainly shuffle some and maybe put others ahead of them, etc., I at least GET why they're there. I really just don't even GET Citizen Kane. Whatever it is the experts see -- I just don't. I'd put all 8 that I've seen on that top 10 list ahead of it, along with a whole helluva lot of other movies too.
The one on that list that I really detest is Gone With The Wind. You'd have to strap me down Clockwork Orange style to get me to watch that bloated turd again. The only movie character I ever saw who annoyed me more than Scarlet O'Hara was Jar Jar Binks.

In retrospect, the films it inspired have eclipsed many of it's accomplishments, but it pack so many innovations, not just technical, but in storytelling form, that it deserves admiration even now. It opened that very idea of what a film could be wide open.

I guess. Maybe a movie expert could explain it better, but Citizen Kane was made in 1941. Casablanca was '42. Wizard of Oz '39. Grapes of Wrath '40. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington '39. Maltese Falcon '41. Philadelphia Story '40. Those are the top 50 movies on AFI's list that pre-date Citizen Kane, and I've seen each and every one more than once,a nd like each and every one alot more, than Citizen Kane. And it's not even close.

Again, I don't want to crap all over the film. I'm not saying that it's Ishtar. But I don't see it as #1. No matter how innovative. Innovation is the only reason I'd have it in the top 100 at all. I don't see the first animation movie at #1. I dont' see the first talking movie at #1. I don't see the first 3D movie at #1. The best special effects don't even pierce the top 12, with no movie in that range predating 1972 except Ranging Bull, which I haven't seen but don't understand to be a special effects heavy movie.

Yeah, I saw it in its entirety once, and bits of it here and there as my mother liked it a fair bit. It's not my favorite, to be sure. But it's a sweeping epic and well acted and all that, so I'm ok with it being on teh list. It's not on MY top 10, but I get why it's up there at least.

If Rhett had shot Scarlet right between the eyes at the end, I would have liked it a great deal more.
