Quote from Sam in I'm Getting My Act Together and Sticking It in Your Face
Sam: Let's give her a call here. I got her parents' number here. Let's just tell her that, you know, we're thinking about her and that we care. [dials phone] Ah, hell, it's her parents' machine. I hate these things. I never know what to say. [on the phone] Hi. This is Sam from Cheers. Uh, this message is for Rebecca. Um, hi, Rebecca. We just wanted to find out if you're okay, and tell you that we all miss you, and I love you, and I hope that...
Norm: Oh, oh, Sam.
Sam: Wh- What?
Norm: You love her?
Sam: No. No, I- I didn't say that. Hold on a second. No, I didn't say that. No, no, I said- l said we miss her and we love her.
Norm: You said we miss her and you love her.
Cliff: Yeah, but it was implied that you miss her, too.
Sam: Well, shoot. l- l- l don't want her to get the wrong impression here. [on the phone] Uh, hi, Rebecca, listen, when I said that I love you, you know I didn't mean love love. l, uh, you know, I meant more like a friend, you know, a buddy, a pal, uh, like a partner, you know. Like the two cops in David Copperfield. Okay, honey? Well, anyway, bye-bye.
Norm: Wait, no.
Sam: Wait, hold on.
Norm: That was a little cold.
Cliff: Yeah, you know, listen, she's, uh, she's feeling kind of low. You can't just kick her when she's down like that.
Sam: Yeah. [on the phone] Sweetheart, when- When I said that I love you, you know, I meant that you're a- a very important part of my life, you know, along with a lot of other people. It- It's, uh, you know, it's like my- my life is this big jigsaw puzzle, and you are a very important part. You know, like a corner piece, huh? All right. Hold on. Oh I think the guys want to say something here. Go ahead.
Guys: Sammy loves you.

Quote from Frasier
Frasier: All right. Gather around, everyone. I am going to right a horrible wrong. I am going to read to you Dickens' classic, A Tale of Two Cities, and you will see just how much fun great literature can be. [all groaning] "Book the First. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times."
Norm: Hey, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Which was it?
Frasier: Just stay tuned, Norm.
Norm: "It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity."
Cliff: Boy, this Dickens guy really liked to keep his butt covered, didn't he?
Frasier: "There was a king with a large jaw, and a queen with a plain face, on the throne of England." [the guys turn around] "And... and..." "...and there was a bloodthirsty clown, who beckoned innocent children into the sewer, and swallowed them whole."
Cliff: Ah! That's a neat trick.
Quote from Frasier
Frasier: You know, at the risk of sounding insensitive, I'm... I'm glad she's getting out of here. Her walking around in that wedding dress was just a tad too "Miss Havisham" for me.
Sam: Who?
Frasier: Miss Havisham. Famous character from Charles Dickens' Great Expectations. Spends the entire novel walking around in her wedding dress.
Norm: What?!
Frasier: Yes. Well, surely you know it. It's Great Expectations. Pip? Miss Havisham? Magwich? And, uh... And four pizza-loving turtles who practice martial arts in the sewer.
Norm: Oh, cowabunga, dudes!
Cliff: You know, there's a lot of people don't realize that that was a comic book first.
Quote from Rebecca
Sam: [on the phone] What are you doing? Where are you going?
Rebecca: I'm- l'm going home to San Diego, Sam. I want to try and forget Boston. I want to erase the last three years of my life.
Sam: It's been five, Rebecca.
Rebecca: [sobs] Has it been that long?
