Niles Quote #1241

Quote from Niles in Decoys

Martin: Well, maybe you and Niles can cheer each other up.
Niles: [nervous] Dad...
Roz: Why, what's his problem?
Martin: Oh, Daphne's got a new boyfriend and it's eating him up.
Niles: Dad!
Roz: What? [to Niles] You've got a thing for Daphne?
Martin: What, you didn't know that after all these years?
Roz: No! I can't believe Daphne never told me.
Martin: Well, how could she? She doesn't know either.
Roz: You're kidding!
Niles: Yes, yes, he's a great kidder. Now, you Dad, run along, and you be very careful crossing streets!
Martin: [to Roz] Six years, can you believe it? Some people just don't even know when it's time to pull the plug.
Niles: Well, I won't make that mistake twice.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Niles and Roz? It's just ridiculous.
Martin: Oh, not this again.
Frasier: Well, they are just completely incompatible.
Martin: Well, haven't you ever heard about "opposites attracting"? I mean, look at your mother and me. We went together for six months, nobody thought it would last, we had forty happy years together.
Frasier: Never thought of it that way.
Martin: Yeah. And then, there are those relationships where people have a ton of things in common and of course they always work out real well. [laughs]
Frasier: Thank you, Dad, I suppose that was a backhanded comment about me and Lilith.
Martin: Wouldn't it be great if she was flying by here on her broomstick right now?

Quote from Niles

Roz: Why don't you just admit it? You're just doing this because you want Daphne.
Niles: Yes! Yes! Yes, I want Daphne. I think we belong together. Just like I think you and Donny belong together. And why should two people be happy when four people can be ecstatic?

Quote from Niles

Niles: Oh, in a funny way this reminds me of that wonderful moment in "A Streetcar Named Desire" when the brutish Stanley says to the ultra-refined Blanche, "We've had this date with each other from the beginning."
Roz: Well, I don't know the play all that well, but I can tell you right now I'm not all that refined.
Niles: No, actually I was picturing you more as Stanley.
