There are great quotes scattered throughout the trilogy, even in the very first chapter of Flash Gordon 36, The Planet of Peril.

"We are doomed, Professor Gordon."

"Your majesty, we have captured the Earth people."
"Is there any resistance?"
"No, your majesty. Except from the blonde giant."

"Why destroy the Earth? Why not conquer it."

"You keep your slimy hands off her!"

And from later in FG 36 comes this Ming gem.

"I do not dine with unruly subjects!"

One of the most iconic lines of the trilogy is spoken by Ming at the climax of Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe.

"The Universe? I am the Universe!"

High Priest: "Emperor Ming is dead. He entered the Sacred underground palace of the Great God Tao, from which no man returns."

After Flash and his party leave, the priest smiles and goes "he he" as he strikes a closed fist to his open hand.

'36 serial
High Priest scolds Ming for displeasing Tao...Ming tells his guards "Lock up this babbling idiot."

'38TTM
"_ _ _ _ _ _ _" as indicated by Clay men as they were shot by a pistol early on by one of the earth people.

'40CTU
"Are you going to obey?"....Ming belting out an order to a palace officer, actually loyal to Prince Barin.

PS Let's maybe see if we can keep this going in a round robin kind of way, even if only one or a few.

Ming: "You are to proceed at once to Arboria, destroy Prince Barin's radio station, thus preventing these messages from being sent."

Gen Lupi: "Your majesty, I demand to know why I and the thousands of others with me are being held prisoners in your filthy concentration camps!"

Ming: "You plotted with your Queen Fria to refuse my demands. You meet the same fate as all those who oppose me."

Upon first meeting Dale Arden, Ming says:

"Your eyes, your hair, your skin...I've never seen one like you before...you are beautiful."

Recurring devilish laugh by Ming throughout trilogy:

"Heh, Heh"

Ming's order as Aura goes into arena to save Flash:

"Get my daughter out of there!"

Ming to Zarkov in Flash Gordon '36 chapter two, The Tunnel of Terror:

"Science will overcome all things. Even the human emotions."

Also from Flash Gordon '36, The Tunnel of Terror:

Thun: "Then you're not an ally of Ming's?"

Flash: "I'll say I'm not."
