Leica probably have the best lenses. They're also the most expensive by a long margin. Cannon & Nikon have the largest ranges and are pretty much neck and neck in terms of quality. Some lenses within each range are better than others so its worth checking the reviews depending on what sort of photography you want to do. If you haven't already invested in an SLR, see which brand you prefer in terms of handling. While I shoot Canon, I prefer Nikon's ergonomics. Also, Nikons are "backward compatible" meaning that a modern DSLR body will take lenses made before AF & digital, which are much cheaper.
The Sony's have a good reputation as well but their range of lenses is limited.
