Arrrrrg. I hate generating quotes for large and vague projects!
"Put a specific price please on this vague thing."
Sure, no problem. I estimate it will take anywhere from two weeks to two months.
So lets see, that's anywhere between $10,000 and $40,000. You want me to just pick a number?
Of course, I don't have the info I need to justify that number, so I'll just put on my programmer hat and make up a bunch of complicates sounding mumbo-jumbo. It's not like anyone will know better anyways.

5. Recent studies show that I am Saddam Hussein.
Mention that too and you can probably add another couple grand.

6. Really? Somehow I doubt they were very scientific studies.
You are for one, lacking a large bushy mustache!
