Memorable Big Brother Quotes

An American beauty queen contestant was asked if she could live forever, would she and in addition, why would she do so. Her answer was, and I quote:

"I would not live forever because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever."

She sounds almost stupid enough to grace Big Brother. Over the years, housemates have provided us with some quality quotes, mainly stemming from boredom, frustration or their own utter stupidity. With this in mind, we take a look back at some of the show's more memorable quotes: the bizarre, the bitchy, the just-plain-stupid and even, the surprisingly aware.
