Roz: Well, where are the rest of them?
Kenny: There are no rest. We record over them. I mean, look around, Doc, we've got a space problem down here.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Now, Roz, who's our first caller?
Roz: We have Joe from Bachon Island on line one.
Frasier: Go ahead Joe, I'm listening.
Joe: "About that missing tape..."
Frasier: Yes, yes?
Joe: "I know what you're going through. A couple years ago, I was in a taxi cab and lost a gold cuff link."
Frasier: Yes, and this relates to my missing tape how?
Joe: "Well, it's missing and I'm bummed. It has the initials "J.S." on it. If anyone finds it, I'd love to have it back."
Frasier: Yes, I'm sure you would, but unless it's about my missing tape, well then I would prefer to stick to calls about mental and emotional issues, as usual. Thank you for your call.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Who's our next caller, Roz?
Roz: We have Phyllis from Green Lake.
Frasier: Phyllis, go ahead, I'm listening.
Phyllis: "My cat ran away last Wednesday. She's orange with a white chest and one white paw..."
Frasier: Wait, wait. Phyllis. All right. Hold on. Hold on a minute. All right now, listen to me people. I don't want to turn this show into the lost and found bin of the airwaves. Phyllis, I'm going to let you finish your description of your cat and then we're going back to our regular show, all right?
Phyllis: "Okay. She has green eyes, a rhinestone collar, and when she's happy..."

Quote from Frasier

Daphne: Hello, Dr. Crane. How was your nap?
Frasier: Lovely. Daphne, could you make me a cup of tea, please, and whatever meal would be appropriate for this time of day?

Quote from Frasier

Daphne: Dr. Crane, you've been in bed all weekend. How about going for a nice walk?
Frasier: No, thanks.
Daphne: Well, how about going to a movie then? Take your mind off your troubles.
Frasier: My car's in the shop.
Daphne: You could take public transportation.
[Frasier lets out a faint laugh]

Quote from Frasier

Niles: Do you ever intend to listen to any of the others?
Frasier: Don't know.
Niles: So, why is it so important to you to have each and every one of them?
Frasier: Because it's a collection, Niles. That's what a collection is.
Niles: Is it possible that a harmless collection has become an unhealthy obsession?
Frasier: It's, it's just a hobby. All right?
Niles: Or an obsession.
Frasier: An eccentricity.
Niles: Or an obsession.
Frasier: You know, it's a quirk. That's it, I'm quirky. I'm delightfully quirky.

Quote from Niles

Martin: Hey, Fras. The station called, some guy has your tape.
Frasier: Oh, uh, well, thanks, Dad. Yes, well, I'll tend to this by and by... [exits]
Niles: All right, I'll get the car.
Frasier: I'll put on some pants.
Niles: Zipper goes in front.

Quote from Frasier

Niles: Frasier, this man is deeply disturbed.
Frasier: Why? Because he has a few pictures of me on his wall? [phone rings]
Niles: This man is obviously obsessed with you.
Frasier: What is it with you? I'm obsessed, he's obsessed. You know, I think you're the one who's obsessed with being obsessed.
Niles: All right, I apologize. He's delightfully quirky.
[The answering machine picks up the call:]
Frasier: [recorded message:] Go ahead, caller, I'm listening.
Woman: This is your mother. Call me and change that stupid message already.

Quote from Frasier

Tom: Oh, this turned out really nice. And you know, eventually, the money ran out, so I got a gig as a night doorman. And that way, I could- Oh. I could, uh, you know listen to the show a second time on my Walkman and then I could do my transcriptions at work.
Frasier: You transcribe the show?
Tom: Well, you gotta have a backup.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Listen, I'm just thinking. I don't really want to talk you into anything. It seems I've done enough of that already. [Tom hands Frasier a chip] Thank you. Tom, what I'm getting at here is, that I think there could be more to your life than just my tapes and pictures. Now, if you'd be interested in exploring those issues further, I can recommend someone who'd be glad to talk with you.
[Niles mouths "Not me." to Frasier]
Tom: Why? I have you.
Frasier: Thank you. Well, you know, I think it's time we got going.
