          Don't even need a few words, "Elderberries".

          Edited for clarity.

          Still doesn't work. Elderberries are synonymous with the Holy Grail, at least in places where elderberries aren't common.

              I meant elderberries to be an example for OPs post, to show nearly the entire script of holy Grail is easily recognizable, even using single word quotes.

                    Alternate challenge: Find a line of more than just a few words from Holy Grail that won't be recognized.

                          "Who goes there?" and "It's only a model" could work without any more context. But I think I would go with "Oh, don't be such a baby" even with context I think lots of people won't immediately recognize this.

                              "I've got a bad feeling about this."

                              "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

                              "Get busy livin', or get busy dyin'.'"

                              "Now that's a real shame when folks be throwin' away a perfectly good white boy like that."

                                I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass…and I’m all out of bubblegum.

                                Fans of said movie will obviously know it but I think more people will recognize that line than actually know the movie it comes from.

                                          (I didn't actually know that off the top of my head. I ran across a site that apparently indexes movie clips by sentence and picks a random line every time you reload the page. It happened to load a search for "hello there" and that was one of the first five results that it shows you before telling you to pay for an account. The other four results were Far From Heaven, Annie (2014), Hellboy II, and The Mask, BTW.)

                                          (And yes, I know you meant to be referencing Obi-Wan's line in Star Wars.)
