Quote from Phoebe
Phoebe: You know what might help you deal with it? Think about it this way. You and Emily are in the past. And you can't be mad about the past. Well, are you still mad about, you know, the Louisiana Purchase?
Rachel: Pheebs, I don't think anybody's mad about that.
Phoebe: Exactly. Because it's in the past.
Quote from Joey
Monica: I'm telling you, something's wrong. My brother doesn't stay out all night.
Joey: Maybe we should check the trash chute.
Rachel: Ross couldn't fit down the trash chute.
Joey: That's right. He almost could. Which is exactly how I got stuck there.
Quote from Phoebe
Ross: I mean, I talked for hours. It is amazing to have someone give you such focused attention.
Phoebe: You don't need Janice for that. You've got us.
Joey: The duck gets the Nutter Butter.
Phoebe: No. Hey, that's not a Nutter Butter. That's an old won ton.
Joey: Judge rules Nutter Butter.
Phoebe: Oh, tough call.
Quote from Joey
Rachel: No, I mean, come on. This is a huge deal. Come on, I need more details. Like, who initiated the first kiss?
Joey: I don't know.
Rachel: Is he romantic with her?
Joey: I don't know.
Rachel: Are they in love?
Joey: ... I don't know.
Rachel: You don't know anything.
Joey: Ooh, I know one thing. They did it right there on the couch yesterday.
Quote from Chandler
Monica: Look at us all dressed up for the big party. By the way, what are we celebrating?
Chandler: Oh, we had a lot of liquor left over from the Christmas party.
Quote from Chandler
Chandler: And Doug wants us to play tennis with him. He's never even talked to me outside of work. Except for that time we bumped into each other at that strip club. Strip church.
Quote from Chandler
Chandler: Hey, Rach, do you have a tennis racket?
Rachel: Uh, I lent it to Joey, and I've never actually gotten it back.
Chandler: Okay. Good luck with that.
Quote from Ross
Ross: No, no, no! I was up all night writing this nasty letter to Emily. It was perfect, and now it's all covered in ... Actually, thanks.
Quote from Monica
Monica: Am I on fire today or what? Those birds are browned, basted and ready to be carved.
Chandler: Okay, easy, Martina.
Quote from Chandler
Monica: I don't like work Chandler. The guy's a suck-up.
Chandler: Okay, because you said that I'm not putting out tonight.
