Quote from Ross

Rachel: Ross, if you want your neighbors to like you, why don't you just pay the $100? The party will cost you way more than that.
Ross: That doesn't matter. It's my principles. We're talking about my principles!
Rachel: Okay, I thought it was about your neighbors liking you.
Ross: Oh, they'll like me once they come to my awesome par-tay. Okay, I gotta run. I gotta get some nametags.

Quote from Rachel

Rachel: And that crazy party animal will be your brother-in-law.

Quote from Phoebe

Ross: So what did you tell them about me?
Phoebe: Oh, I was telling them about you and Emily. You know, trying to get some sympathy. But somehow you came off as the bad guy.
Ross: What?
Phoebe: Yeah, I told it wrong. You know, we should talk about that because I don't totally understand what happened there.

Quote from Phoebe

Phoebe: Obviously, I didn't think they were gonna start throwing things. I just thought if I kept insulting them you would jump in and defend them, then you'd look like the hero.
Ross: Oh, wow, yeah. See, I did not get that.

Quote from Monica

Chandler: I was really confused and then I talked to these guys.
Monica: Who? Two divorces and Joey?
Ross: Hey!
Joey: She's right, you know?
Ross: Yeah, but still, cheap shot.
