I often reach for

  emacs -nw -Q
It boots up quickly and the basic editing defaults are all there. Has the advantage of being everywhere Emacs already is as well

I like mg as an emacs-like editor that is simple and quick. Made by the great OpenBSD folks and is of great quality with good documentation.

Actually made by David G Conroy while he was at Mark Williams, and open sourced. I kicked around to various folks and ended up in the gnu fold.
