Quote from Phoebe
Phoebe: All right, we have to get you lazy boys out of these chairs. You should go outside and be with the three-dimensional people.
Quote from Monica
Monica: How have you been?
Richard: Oh, well, obviously you know Barbara and I split up. Otherwise you wouldn't have done the head tilt.
Monica: The head tilt?
Richard: Yeah. Since the divorce, whenever anybody asks how I am it's always with a sympathetic head tilt. "How you doing? You okay?"
Monica: I'm sorry.
Richard: It's fine. Believe me, I do it too. I always answer with the "I'm okay" head bob. "I'm okay." "You're sure?" "Yeah, I'm fine."
Quote from Rachel
Ross: Listen, I'm sorry I had to work tonight.
Rachel: Oh, that's okay. You were worth the wait. And I don't just mean tonight.
Ross: Whoa. You're not laughing.
Rachel: This time it's not so funny.
Quote from Ross
Monica: All right, but I'm very excited about this, okay? So promise you won't get big-brothery and judgmental.
Ross: I promise. What?
Monica: It's Richard Burke.
Ross: Who's Richard Burke? Dr. Burke? You have a date with Dr. Burke? Why? Why? Why should that bother me? I love that man. He's like a a brother ... to Dad.
Quote from Monica
Richard: I gotta set up the music. I got a new CD changer. Of course, the divorce only left me with four CDs to change.
Monica: [head tilt] That's too bad.
Richard: [head bob] I'll survive.
Quote from Phoebe
Phoebe: That's funny. Cadillac, cataract. I get it. But you stay out there!
Quote from Rachel
Rachel: Okay, look. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I promise I'm not going to laugh anymore. Put your hands back there.
Ross: No. No, see, now I can't because I'm feeling to self-conscious.
Rachel: Just one cheek.
Ross: The moment's gone.
Rachel: Just put your hands out and I'll back up into them.
Ross: That's romantic.
Rachel: Come on, touch it.
Ross: No.
Rachel: Oh, come on, squeeze it.
Ross: No.
Rachel: Rub it?
Ross: No.
Rachel: Oh, come on. Would you just grab my ass?
Quote from Joey
[Chandler and Joey sit down in their new recliners]
Chandler: Oh, yes.
Joey: Oh, yeah. That's the stuff.
Chandler: Do we dare?
Joey: We dare. [they raise the front] Oh. [then lower the back] Oh, oh!
Quote from Monica
Richard: Come on in. Is Monica Geller coming? I was told she was.
Monica: Dr. Burke, it's me.
Richard: Monica? My God. You used to be so- I mean, you've- You must have lost like- You look great.
Quote from Monica

Monica: I tell you what. I'll come get you in five minutes with some sort of kebab emergency.
