Lilith Quote #13
Quote from Lilith in Dinner at Eight-ish
Lilith: Why do you insist on displaying your magazines in that insipid accordion design?
Frasier: I'm sorry if this one little touch of theatrical flair is too much for your retentive nature.
Lilith: We'll go into my retentive nature later. For now, we have guests coming. [rearranges the magazines again]
Frasier: You know, I see what you're trying to do here. You want me to begin the argument that you wish you could start yourself. Well, I will not do it. If you want to have an altercation, you will have to-
Lilith: [throws the magazines at Frasier] How could you be late on a night like this?! Didn't you know I'd be nervous making my first dinner in your house while your stupid friends are looking at me and judging my every move? I'll never forgive you for this! Never, never, never, never! [doorbell chimes]
Frasier: Just a minute! Darling, I think that was a real breakthrough. So come out of the bathroom, and after dinner, we'll build on it. But, our- our guests are here now. Dear heart? [doorbell chimes] Darling. Coming! Coming!

Quote from Lilith
Diane: But this is quite a surprise. You've only known each other a few months, and you're moving in together? That's pretty impetuous.
Lilith: Well, a week ago, we decided to take a chance on cohabitation, but we waited a week before announcing the news, so as to avoid putting any undue pressure on the success or failure of the endeavor. And now we are pleased to announce the effort a limited success.
Diane: Yes, pretty darn impetuous.

Frasier: All right, uh, Diane and I were engaged to be married and she left me at the altar. The whole experience was so humiliating, l- l- I've just been trying to forget it ever since.
Lilith: Your feelings for her were genuine?
Frasier: Yes.

Lilith: You switch your passions on and off very quickly, Dr. Crane.
Frasier: I do not!
Lilith: Then you do still love her!
Frasier: Well, I never did!
Lilith: You were going to marry her!
Frasier: Well, maybe I just thought I loved her!
Lilith: How do I know you don't just think you love me?

Sam: [to Lilith] Cheese knife?
