Quote from Cory

Cory: That's me. Maybe he'll pick me twice and I can go into the closet with myself.

Quote from Eric

Eric: I'm too cute to stay home.

Quote from Topanga

Shawn: Deny everything. Hey, you were in a closet. Who else knows what actually went on in there?
Topanga: Just because he didn't kiss me doesn't mean he's some kind of freak.
Cory: No. No! Make her stop!
Topanga: Look, all of you. Any guy can just crawl in a closet and kiss a girl, but Cory's different, because he is a really nice boy.

Quote from Mr. Feeny

Mr. Feeny: He is extremely cautious. He always wears his helmet when he's on his motorcycle.
Ms Tompkins: Oh, is that his Harley out in the parking lot?
Mr. Feeny: No, it's mine.

Quote from Cory

Shawn: What are you doing?
Cory: Lip-ups. I want to be in shape. I want to go the distance.

Quote from Mr. Feeny

Mr. Feeny: Oh, that's Miss Tompkins. She replaced Edwina Munsey in our social studies department mercifully.
Mr. Turner: Did you hire her, George?
Mr. Feeny: Yes, I did.
Mr. Turner: Attaboy!
Mr. Feeny: Take a shower, son.

Quote from Eric

Eric: Look, I'm just concerned you're not prepared for the make out party tonight.
Cory: I know how to kiss.
Eric: You think it's that simple? I mean, what happened if she has braces? What happens if your noses hit? What if a hanger hooks you like a large-mouthed bass? Do you even know what to do with your hands?

Quote from Shawn

Shawn: Cory, chill. You're gonna be fine. And you know why? 'Cause right up until the second you go into that closet, I'm right here with you, no matter what. 'Cause it's Cory and Shawn, Shawn and Cory.
Alvin: Shawn and Melanie.
Shawn: See ya!

Quote from Cory

Cory: How come you're being so cool about this?
Topanga: I don't know. Because you're nice.
Cory: Great. Twist the knife.
Topanga: I meant it as a compliment!
Cory: Guys don't wanna be nice. We wanna be you know, tough, and good with appliances, and good kissers.
