Quote from Woody in I'm Getting My Act Together and Sticking It in Your Face

Frasier: Greetings all! A pint of lager, my good publican! I'm of a Dickensian spirit today. I've just come from the Antiquarian Book Fair, where I managed to luck into a handsomely bound first edition of Charles Dickens' Tale of Two Cities.
Woody: [picks the book up] Wow! If you don't mind my asking, how much does something like this cost, Dr. Crane?
Frasier: [takes the book back] Well, uh, Woody, money isn't really the issue, but, uh, around $1,200.
Woody: [scoffs, snickers] 1,200 bucks? Got something to show you, Dr. Crane. It's called a library card.
Frasier: Thank you for the advice, Woody. Now may I have a scotch on the rocks, please?
Woody: Okeydoke! That'll be around 1,200 bucks.

Norm: Hey, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Which was it?

Cliff: You know, there's a lot of people don't realize that that was a comic book first.
