1. ‘Be of good cheer. If science teaches us anything, it teaches us to accept our failures,
as well as our successes, with quiet dignity and grace.’
2. ‘Don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always
wanted…He lived happily ever after.’
3. ‘[God] doesn’t make rain. He gives us strength when we’re suffering. He gives us
compassion when all that we feel is hatred. He gives us courage when we’re searching
around blindly like little mice in the darkness…but He does not make rain!’
4. ‘My name is Jim, but most people call me…Jim.’
5. ‘A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.’
6. ‘STAND BACK, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! HE’S GOT A ROTTEN BRAIN!’
7. ‘I’m the last man left. Last man. And I’m staying that way…’til the end. I’ll never
capitulate. Are you listening? ARE YOU LISTENING? I’LL NEVER GIVE IN!’
8. ‘If the good Lord had intended us to walk, he wouldn’t have invented rollerskates.’
9. ‘Why don’t we all drink some very sexy wine?’
10. ‘Invention, my dear friends, is 93% perspiration, 6% electricity, 4% evaporation,
and 2% butterscotch ripple.’ (C)(S)

The quote is itself quite political -- and so true.

As far as I can tell, these are all scripted quotations. Are there any well-known examples of the wit and wisdom of Gene Wilder?

Some good ones there dave.
My fave from stir crazy is when Grossberger arrives in the canteen and wilder's fellow inmate says..

".. That's Grossberger. The biggest mass murderer in the history of the southwest? My dear, he killed his entire family and all of his relatives in one weekend and then he killed some more people that reminded him of his family...!"

At this point Gene Wilder says Ah, he seems so sad and goes over to where grossberger is eating. Wilder goes "Hello..!" in that sickly-sweet kindly way he could do and Grossberger roars and wilder runs back to his table.
Always gets me.
