Quote from Roz in Kissing Cousin
Frasier: Our next caller is Stu, from Madrona. Go ahead, Stu, I'm listening.
Stu: "All right, it's like this. I've been dating my girlfriend for six years and she keeps bugging me about moving in. But I know as soon as she does, my freedom is gone. Everything's gotta be in the hamper, I can't eat over the sink, can't just go out whenever my buddies call, it's a lot to give up."
Frasier: Okay, Stu, how old are you?
Stu: "The calendar says forty-seven, but I feel eighteen, right?"
Roz: Forty-seven?
Frasier: Now, Roz.
Roz: I have a suggestion for you, Stu, grow the hell up!
Stu: "What? I'm sorry?"
Roz: I mean, I'm thirty-eight. And I feel thirty-eight. Now, I know we're all supposed to act like perpetual teenagers these days, but you know what? I like acting my age. I like being a mom. I like having a career. And I like balancing my checkbook. When did it become such a bad thing to be an adult?
Stu: "Dr. Crane? Hello?"
Roz: Now, don't get me wrong, I had a great time when I was younger, I did. But after a while, that way of life just seems... empty. You have to go deeper, and commit to things that really matter to you. Believe me, when you do that, you'll find out how amazing and rich life can be.
Stu: "Hey, I know that voice. You were at Zoo the other night. You told me you were twenty-nine."

‘Kissing Cousin’ Quotes
Quote from Niles
Niles: People in their twenties are always like that. The world is so daunting at that age. They comfort themselves with the idea that everything's just trash. We were like that in medical school. Acting as if we were above it all, smarter than everybody. It passes.
Quote from Frasier
Frasier: No, no.
Niles: Well, there's room at Roz's table.
Frasier: No. I find her cousin Jen just a bit judgmental for my taste. Yesterday she told me my show was bourgeois. I pointed out that anything that had mass appeal could be called bourgeois. She then said that my argument was bourgeois. Which I found to be jejune.
Quote from Frasier
Roz: Frasier, this is my cousin Jen. She's visiting this week, remember?
Frasier: Oh, yes, of course. So how are you enjoying Seattle?
Jen: Well, I've been living in London, so Seattle seems a little lame. No offense.
Frasier: Oh, none taken. So you like London?
Jen: Not really. It's like a parody of itself.
Frasier: How so?
Jen: Oh, you know, double decker buses, bobbies, little pubs. It's like EPCOT but even fakier. So I bailed. Went and spent some time in Florence.
Frasier: Ah, Firenze. How is she?
Jen: I gotta say, Florence is over. It was probably cool, before all the Americans found out about it.
Frasier: You mean three hundred years ago?
Jen: Exactly. That's why I'm going to Vietnam. Americans have never even heard of it.
Frasier: Ah. Well, you know, I'm afraid I have to bail on this conversation. I have a show to prepare for.
