Niles Quote #30

Quote from Niles in Dinner at Eight

Frasier: The mud pie is coming? I feel terrible.
Niles: So do I.
Frasier: The sad thing is, he's right about us.
Niles: Have we really become such snobs?
Frasier: You don't see anyone else driving their father out into the street to drink, do you?
[The waitress gives them an evil look]
Frasier: We've got to apologize to Dad.
Niles: You're right.
Frasier: We'll give him a couple of hours to cool down over at Duke's. And when he gets home, we'll settle this.
Niles: Absolutely. We've been just horrid. Frasier, do you think we've lost the ability to appreciate the simple things - steak, potatoes, fixings?
Frasier: I'm afraid so. The thing is, this is good food. It's not too fancy but it's good, wholesome American fare.
Niles: You know, as a tribute to Dad, I think we should sit here until we've cleaned our plates.
Frasier: Well, I'm game if you are. We're going to prove we are not snobs.
Niles: Absolutely. Frasier, look who's here. [Niles tries to hide his baked potato]
Frasier: Eat your food.

Quote from Martin

Martin: All right, that's it. I've had enough of you two jackasses. I've spent the whole night listening to you making cracks about the food and the health. Well, I've got news for you. People like this place. I like this place. And when you insult this restaurant, you insult me. You know, I used to think you took after your mother, liking the ballet and all that. But you mother liked a good ball game, too. She'd even have a hot dog once in a while. She may have had fancy taste, but she had too much class to make me or anyone else feel second-rate. If she saw the way you two behaved tonight, she'd be ashamed. I know I am.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Dad, Niles and I and, uh, Maris would like you to join us for dinner on Saturday night at Le Cigare Volant, one of the hottest new restaurants.
Martin: Oh, gee, I don't know.
Niles: Oh, oh. The food is to die for.
Martin: Niles, your country and your family are to die for. Food is to eat.

Quote from Frasier

Waitress: Can I get you something from the bar?
Frasier: Oh, dear God, yes.
Niles: I'll have a Stoli Gibson on the rocks with three pearl onions.
Frasier: If you bring him two, if you bring him four, he'll send it back.
Waitress: And for you?
Frasier: The same.
