Niles Quote #183
Quote from Niles in Author, Author
Frasier: Put this down. "The key to a good sibling relationship is the ability to be open and honest."
Niles: That actually sounded good to me.
Frasier: Well, put that in there.
Niles: [typing] "The key to a good sibling relationship is the ability to be open and honest, while still respecting each other's boundaries."
Frasier: What are you doing? What was that crap about boundaries?
Niles: I was just finishing the thought.
Frasier: The thought was finished. It didn't need finishing, for God's sake. Now it's a run-on sentence.
Niles: I think it's much better this way.
Frasier: Well, I don't!
Niles: Well, I'm at the keyboard.
Frasier: All right then, let me type!
Niles: No, I can only write at the keyboard.
Frasier: Niles, you haven't written a thing all day, except to ruin a perfectly good opening sentence.
Niles: I was merely finishing it. It was an incomplete thought.
Frasier: You're an incomplete thought! What happened to the iced tea?
Niles: I finished that, too.

Quote from Niles
Frasier: Amazing! Well, there you have it, Seattle, the miracle of the sibling relationship spelled out in an unselfish act of head-shaving. Well, that's about all the time we have. I'd like to thank my brother, Dr. Niles Crane, for being here today. Niles, I would shave my head for you.
Niles: A gesture which becomes less significant with each passing year.
Quote from Niles
Frasier: Niles, what the hell are you doing? I don't want to write a book, for God's sake. I'm out of here.
Niles: Frasier, I know it's asking a big favor. I mean, I know you're busy. But I just want you to know that all of my life I've dreamed of one thing: the day I could go into a library and go to the card catalog and see my name
under "mental illness".

Niles: Very clever solution.
Frasier: Yes. It also has another little feature that I like. Watch this. [to Martin] Hey, Dad! Nice shirt. Did they throw that in the last time you had your tires rotated?
Niles: Hey, Dad. Tell us about the time you met Dwight Eisenhower. We haven't heard that story this hour.
Frasier: Okay, okay, my turn. Hey, Dad? Remember-
Martin: Say another word and I'll club you both with my cane.
