I don't remember the first line ever appearing in "The Honeymooners," but it was always Gleason's introduction to the main show after his preliminary "coffee" cup monologue. Of course, for a few years, TJGS featured Honeymooners skits.
"Did you ever get the feeling that you was bein' watched?"
"Why did you pour ink on my head?"
"Now don't try to get away! I am more muscular, more cunning, faster, and larger than you are... and I'm a genius. While you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten. So, I'll give you the customary 2 minutes to say your prayers." "I'm sorry, mac, but the lady of the house ain't home and besides we mailed you people a check last week!"

"I'm looking over a three-leaf clover, that I overlooked be-three!"
"The roughest, toughest hombre that ever crossed the Rio Grande! And I don't mean Mahatma Gandhi! Now, all of you skunks clear out of here!"
Those were all easy for me, I'm surprised they were that tricky for you.
Yosemite Sam playing cards and with ink spilled on his head. Bugs at the beginning of the Peter Lorre as mad scientist cartoon, Wile E. Coyote-super genius and Bugs, And Yosemite Sam clearing out a saloon.
You might find this interesting. The line "And I don't mean Mahatma Gandhi!" was changed in recent decades to "And I ain't no namby pamby!"

That's a shame, Rudolf. If you had been correct, I would have rewarded you with a spider goulash.
