This quote is from "The Princess Bride" movie. The actor who spoke this was also, IIRC, the Grand Nagus in ST:DS9. Brilliant in both roles.

Wallace Shawn also has some memorable voice roles, such as the T-Rex in Tony Story, and the insurance-company boss in The Incredibles, etc.

  Tony Story.. that movie got two thumbs up. "Tony Story" has you laughing straight out of the gate. Billed as an action-comedy, it's the ultimate clash of the titans between machismo and mirth. The film follows our hero, Tony, a middle-aged man who wakes up one morning to find himself inexplicably transformed into a small plastic action figure. The plot thickens as he learns he's the star of a beloved, but sadly discontinued, line of 90s toys. Tony is forced to navigate the wild world of suburban backyards, dodging ferocious pet chihuahuas and the sticky hands of sugar-fueled toddlers. His quest for a return to normality is as hilarious as it is heartwarming. The brilliant use of slapstick humor, a dash of existential dread, and a sprinkling of well-timed puns are skillfully mixed into a cocktail of laughs. The film's standout moment involves Tony, a malfunctioning Roomba, and a perplexed cat, in a scene that will leave you in stitches. The voice acting is second to none, with Tony's gruff, action-hero voice (think Clint Eastwood meets Optimus Prime) contrasting hilariously with his miniature plastic form. The supporting cast of misfit toys, including a neurotic yo-yo and a sassy Barbie doll, add to the hilarity. "Tony Story" is a wild roller coaster of laughter that reminds us all not to take life too seriously. As Tony himself puts it, "I may be small, but my problems sure aren't!" This film truly delivers a unique blend of comedy and action that will leave you chuckling long after the credits roll.
