Quote from Robin in Mosbius Designs

Ted: Robin, there are billions of guys in the world. Why do you have to sleep with him?
Robin: Ted, when I get off work, it's 5:30 in the morning. Do you have any idea what kind of guys I'm meeting?
[flashback to Robin at MacLaren's with a guy:]
Man: I deliver newspapers. It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it. [shows his ink-stained hands] Don't worry. I'll wash them before I handle your business.
[flashback to Robin with another guy:]
Man: I live with my mom. At night, we watch TV in her bed. We call it "Cuddle Club".
[flashback to Robin with another guy:]
Robin: So, you, get up really early to trade on the European stock exchanges? What's that like?
Fantasy Guy: [wearing robe] Look, is this going to happen or not?
[present:]

Quote from Barney

Barney: Hey, hey. If Ted says that PJ is important to the company, then PJ is not going anywhere.
Ted: See? He's very valuable.
Barney: Well, whoa. PJ's a guy? PJ's not some hot chick you're banging?
Ted: No, I'm mentoring him.
Barney: Oh, mentoring. I mentored a young fellow once. Even made him my wingman. Then, one day, he hired an assistant to work ten feet from his bedroom who... get this... isn't a hot chick, proving he never listened to a word I said. And do you know that young man's name?
Ted: Ted Mosby?
Barney: Maybe. I don't remember. Because he is dead to me! PJ's gonna be getting a very confusing card in the mail, along with a garment that he should by no means wear for three days and then mail back to me.

Quote from Ted

Robin: Hey, you okay?
Ted: What if I don't think of the books?
Robin: Excuse me?
Ted: There's this famous architecture story about an architect who designed this library. It was perfect. But every year, the whole thing would sink a couple inches into the ground. Eventually, the building was condemned. He forgot to account for the weight of the books. This company... it's just me. What if I don't think of the books?
Robin: Okay. First of all, nobody goes to libraries anymore, so who cares about that guy? Secondly, you need to get on the phone and start calling clients.
Ted: The longer I put off starting my own firm, the longer it can remain a dream and not something I screwed up at. It's like I'm giving up before I even started.

Quote from Barney

Barney: Hey. You hear there's gonna be more layoffs?
Marshall: I know. I'm freaking out. Are you worried?
Barney: Are you kidding? The things I know about this company. I won't ever be fired. I mean, there's a pretty good chance one day I'll wash up on shore with no fingerprints or teeth, but I won't be fired.
