Martin Quote #229
Quote from Martin in Daphne's Room
Frasier: I simply went in there to retrieve my book.
Martin: You're not supposed to go in there!
Frasier: Oh, what's the big deal?
Martin: Do you ever see her leave her door open? She doesn't like people going in there.
Frasier: She goes into my room all the time, and it doesn't bother me!
Martin: Women are different.
Frasier: Dad, that is sexism talking.
Martin: No, that's thirty-five years of marriage talking. Women protect their privacy. You know how they are about their handbags. You never go in there. It's always "bring me my purse." The husband could say, "Honey, I'm being robbed. The guy's holding a gun to my head and I don't have any money." The wife would say, "Bring me my purse."

Quote from Niles
Martin: I still think you're making too big a deal out of this.
Niles: Dad, I have never seen Maris this angry. I swear, her eye was twitching like a frog in a science experiment.
Martin: Well, when your mother got mad at me, I'd just grab her, bend her backwards, and give her a kiss which made her glad she was a woman.
Niles: I can't do that with Maris. She has abnormally rigid vertebrae, she'd snap like a twig.
Quote from Niles
Martin: Oh, why don't you just get her a nice bottle of perfume?
Niles: She gets hives.
Martin: How about candy?
Niles: Hypoglycemic.
Martin: Just get her a dozen roses.
Niles: Allergic.
Quote from Niles
Niles: Dad, as usual, your simple homespun wisdom has pricked the balloon of Frasier's pomposity.
