I don't have any top 5 favourite lines from any anime character, but I can't believe no one has mentioned the following:
This is mankind's dream, mankind's desire, mankind's destiny! To be the strongest, to go the furthest, to climb the highest! - Rau Le Cruset, Gundam Seed
"There was a robust snake that dived into the sea, then, stabbed an apple with a broadsword, and shot it with a large, black imposing gun." - Satou Tatsuhiro, Welcome to the NHK
sorry i don't really have a top 5 but this was just excellent. best quote of 2010 atleast for me.
I can name 2 right off the top of my head. I don't have many character lines I can remember.
Nippa - Rika Furude from Higurashi
People die when they are killed - Shiro Emiya from Fate/Stay Night
"Hey Garma, do you read?...Blame this on the misfortune of your birth.....You were indeed a very good friend to me. Don't take it personally. You can thank your father for this" -Char Aznable, Mobile Suit Gundam
"Hearts, you say? You Humans are always so quick to speak of such things. As though you carry your hearts in the very palms of your hands. But this eye of mine perceives all. There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist. That is the assumption under which I have always fought. What is this "heart"? If I tear open that chest of yours, will I see it there? If I smash open that skull of yours, will I see it there?"
-Ulquiorra Cifer, Bleach, best quote ever

There was no reason for me to stay in the real world any longer. In the real world, it didn't matter if I was there or not. When I realized that, I was no longer afraid of losing my body. ~ Chisa Yomoda, serial experiments lain
