This thread is for general discussion of page quotes, whether to change, move or remove them.
Unused quotes should be put on a Quotes Wiki page (just replace the namespace in the URL of the wiki page you are making a quotes page for with Quotes/).
Image captions are discussed elsewhere and have their own thread
in the Image Pickin' forum.

Alright I see your objection. Does anyone else agree?
Daicon III & IV and Time have the same quote. Which should I remove? (I currently feel the former should be removed.)
Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallIs the quote on Parents as People the whole poem?
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Yes, and it seems to describe something other than Parents as People.
That needs to go. That poem has stuck with me for over a decade since I first read it, but it's too negative for a page that is specifically supposed to be for parents who are portrayed as more complicated than just "bad". Bad with an excuse is still bad.
The first replacement quote that jumps out at me from the quotes page is the Rick and Morty one, but I can also see a case being made that that's a slightly off fit as well.

For Diplomatic Impunity, while it doesn't have a quotes page, the example from Family Guy might work.
I've got diplomatic immunity, so Hammer, you can't sue.
I can write graffiti, even jaywalk in the street.
Can riot, loot, not give a hoot, and touch your sister's teat.
Can't touch me.
Or we can shorten it and leave just the second line:
Urban Dictionary has three page quotes.
I like the first. The second and third just complain about the site.
Another suggestion for Diplomatic Impunity:
(Full transcript, Murtagh's lines could be shortened if necessary.)

ERROR: The current state of the world is unacceptable. Save anyway? YES/NOThe current quote on Power Creep, Power Seep is completely meaningless if you're not familiar with Rambo and a specific character from Mortal Kombat. I really like this option from the quotes page, though:
Thoughts?

It's an improvement. Current looks like a trope about encountering someone stronger than you.
Both Diplomatic Impunity suggestions are better than current.
The quote on Phlebotinum Muncher is irrelevant. "Kromer" is the very strange character's way of referring to money.
My musician pageThe quote on No Sparks seems really unclear. Wouldn't it be a good thing if a romantic interest doesn't make you cry?
Potential replacement:
