And here are quotes, sent in by Pip-fan:

Gimli: Toss me.
Aragorn: What?
Gimli: I cannot jump the distance. You'll have to toss me. Ah- Don't tell the elf.
Aragorn: Not a word.

Eomer: What business does an elf, man, and a dwarf have in the Ridder-Mark? Speak quickly.
Gimli: Give me your name, horse-master, and I shall give you mine.
Eomer: [dismounts] I would cut off your head, dwarf, if it stood but a little higher from the ground.
Legolas: You would die before your stroke fell.
 
Gimli: It's true you don't see many dwarf women. In fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for dwarf men.
Aragorn: It's the beards.
 
Gimli: Bring your pretty face to my axe.
 
Gimli: You'll find more cheer in a graveyard.
Gimli: It's all right, it's all right. Nobody panic, that was deliberate. It was deliberate.
Gimli: [out of breath] I am wasted over long distances. We Dwarves are natural sprinters, very deadly over shorter distances.
 
Gimli: Legolas. Two already.
Legolas: I'm on seventeen.
Gimli: What. I'll have no pointy ear outscoring me.
Legolas: [shoots two more arrows] Nineteen.
 
Aragorn: Gimli, lower your axe.
Legolas: The trees have feelings, my friend. The elves began it, waking up the trees, teaching them to speak.
Gimli: Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?

Legolas: Final count - 42.42! hee hee hee. Sorry, inside joke. If you've read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy you'll understand.
Gimli: 42? That's not bad for a pointy-eared elvish princling. I myself am sitting pretty on 43. [Legolas shoots the orc that Gimli is sitting on]
Legolas: 43
Gimli: He was already dead.
Legolas: He was twitching
Gimli: He was twitching because he's got my axe embedded in his nervous system!

 

Gotta love Gimli! And remember this page is still in progress and I would love your contributions!
