"BONEEE?" 
When Holt and his husband Kevin are arguing over the supposed Monty Hall problem, Rosa suggests that the problem may be deeper than just a mathematical equation and that they probably need to "bone." Despite Amy's suggestion that it was not a good idea, Rosa suggested it to Holt, who immediately gets fired up by this and holds onto the door frame screaming 'Bonee???'  Amy curls up into her chair, and Rosa stands there nonchalantly, while Holt continues to scream 'Bone?" every 10 minutes for an hour.

"HOT DAMN!"
Captain Raymond Holt has always been a gambler. While it was an "addiction" in the past, The scene where the gang is all guessing why Amy was late, prompting Holt to make the winning guess, earns the iconic phrase "Hot Damn."

"BOOST MY BOTTOM!"
The scene where Gina has to boost Captain Raymond Holt into a truck in Florida will always be hilarious. The scene unfolds during a particularly serious episode, the juxtaposition of the two varying situations of the gang makes this quote even more iconic.

"Yas queen!"
Holt always knew when and where to play the "gay card" in the show. The finger snap with the expression makes this moment iconic

"YOU TOOK THE WRONG FLUFFY BOY!"
PSA to all fictional robbers, never try to Cheddar the dog from his Captain Raymond Holt because it will earn you a beating and this legendary line

"If you love someone, you'll remember what they look like." 
The line was said when Captain Raymond Holt requested all family pictures be removed from the desks of the employees. Even in crisis mode, Capt. Ray Holt delivered funny one-liners.

"Vindication!!"
What is one thing Captain Raymond Holt and Amy have in common? The need to always be right. So of course, when Ray was told Rosa did not like balloon arches, he immediately piped down. Only to be revitalised when she walked into the room and was taken aback by the beauty. Which earned this reaction from the captain.

"No, from now on, call me…Velvet Thunder!"
The gumption with which Captain Raymond Holt says this line is enough for all of us to leave everything and stay glued to our screens

"Wuntch is dead! BAGEL! BAGEL! BAGEL!"
One of the few times we see Holt smile is when his arch enemy Wuntch dies. The captain celebrated the death Wuntch with bagels. While inappropriate, it was funny to see Capt. Ray Holt screaming "BAGEL" at everyone.

"You know me. I see a pair of thick, weighty breasts, and all logic flies out the window." 
A proud gay man having to pretend to be straight while undercover is hilarious, but when  Captain Raymond Hold did it? You will be rolling on the floor with laughter. 'Straight Holt ' was a persona everyone loved and hated in the gang.
