Niles Quote #1826

Quote from Niles in Enemy at the Gate

Niles: Still, I appreciate your taking the time to give me a lift.
Frasier: Yes, well, when you informed me you had to get to the promenade shops posthaste, I assumed it was an actual emergency, not to return a cage for some silly lovebirds.
Niles: It may not be on the order of a fallen pant cuff, but until I get home with something more secure, little Daphne and Niles are living under a colander.
Frasier: Dear God, don't tell me you actually named them after yourselves.
Niles: Big mistake, I admit. This morning when Daphne escaped, I just kept thinking, "What if she's hurt or lost or eaten by a cat? Or worse, what if she meets a bird who's more birdly than Niles but without the substance?"
Frasier: Trust me. No one is more birdly than Niles.

Quote from Frasier

Niles: Other motorists are getting angry.
Frasier: If they weren't so shortsighted, they'd see that I'm doing this for their own good. It's like correcting people's grammar. I don't do it to be popular.

Quote from Frasier

Roz: Frasier, I am so sorry, I really screwed up!
Frasier: It's all right, Roz. I'll take care of everything.
Jerry: "I don't have either, I just want to know what's going on with Dr. Crane."
Frasier: [on air] Yes, well I'll bet you do, Jerry. Dr. Frasier Crane here, Seattle. I'm sorry I'm late. It sounds as if Roz has informed you of my exploits.
Jerry: "She hasn't said much, but we'd like to hear it from you."
Frasier: Well, it wasn't my finest hour. Let's just say that I got in there, realized I made a mistake, and then tried like hell to get out!
Roz: Frasier!
Frasier: There was a lot of shouting, and then a line started to form behind me. Fortunately, my brother was with me for moral support, and, well, let's face it, somebody to talk to. You know, you'd be amazed how long twenty minutes can be when you're watching the clock. At least, in the end, I got out of there without paying the four dollars.

Quote from Martin

Daphne: Well, this is it. Sorry it's taken me so long to pick up the last of my things.
Martin: Oh, no problem. Frasier's not having the carpet people here til Friday.
Daphne: Oh, really? When it was my room, he said the carpet's good for another twenty years.
Martin: Yeah, well, now it's going to be a reading sanctuary.
Daphne: He's turning my room into a library?
Martin: No, he made it very clear it was a "reading sanctuary." A library implies sharing.
