Just searched "firefly quotes" in google and came up with loads of sites, eg:

http://www.thehallway.net/firefly.htm
http://www.angel-btvs.co.uk/firefly/quotes.php
http://www.browncoats.nl/bcquotes.htm

Also, the following thread here might be worth a look (and there's probably others):

The fact is, there are so many quotable lines in Firefly that the only way to pick your own faves is to watch the entire series with pen/paper to hand. Having said that, here are some that are quoted a lot:

Jayne: "Do you know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with till you understand who's in rutting command here."

Wash (as dinosaur): "We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... This Land!"

Mal: "We have done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."

Here's a few of my favs that comes from the link:

"Wash:I'd say worth a little risk.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' ya did there.
Wash: That's right, of course. Because they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded. I'm just the pilot. I could always say that I was flying the ship by accident." Gotta love Wash.

" If wishes were horses, we'd all be eatin' steak. " I said this quote to my 13 yr old neice once and I got a weird look from her.

"It smells like crotch." I say this everytime my sister cooks something.

"Look, they got boy whores. Isn't that thoughtful?"

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one." My all time fav!

I like Spoongirltrinity's suggestions. How about this:

Large letters: No power in the 'verse can stop me
Very small print underneath: (Also, I can kill you with my brain)

Picture of Serenity on the back and you're sorted.

All lot of the good quotes are too long or don't make sense out of context. However, you can't go wrong with Wash:

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone.

We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

Tell me! I am a large semi-muscular man. I can take it.

Do not fear me. Ours is a peaceful race, and we must live in harmony...

I'm thinking of a t-shirt that's not quite G-rated , so I gotta go with:

"Whoa.....good bible"

"I'll be in my bunk" (or alternatively, "we'll be in our bunk")

"Captain, can you take the bridge, 'cause........"

"so last night, when we made......."

"so, could this emergency be in somebody's......."

I think my mind lacks purity this evening.........

They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I figured that out myself.' - Mal

'Also... I can kill you with my brain.' - River

You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I beat you with until you do what your Gorram told! - Jayne

What did I tell you about barging into my shuttle?
That it's manly and impulsive?
- Mal and Inara

Nothin'! Unless this thing's made of magical wish-granting planks! - Jayne

'Aaargh! Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!' - Wash

Of course the best T-Shirt is simply this one:
