Ted Quote #1231
Quote from Ted in The Final Page (Part 2)
Robin: What do you want me to do, Ted? Run up to that roof, knock the ring out of Barney's hand, and say, "Sorry to interrupt, but you should be with me"?
Ted: Is that what you want?
Robin: No. I don't. I can't keep making an ass of myself.
Ted: Well, a word in defense of making an ass of yourself, it's underrated. Eight years ago I made an ass of myself chasing after you, and I've made an ass of myself chasing after you a bunch of times since then. But I have no regrets. Because it led me to something that I wouldn't trade for the world. It led to you being my friend. So, as your friend and a leading expert in the field of making an ass of yourself, I say to you from the heart, get the hell out of this car.
Robin: [exhales] But, Ted, your big night.
Ted: It's just a building.

Quote from Marshall
Marshall: Oh, I forgot the lullaby. Do you know Marvin's lullaby? We sing it to him every night.
[flashback to Marshall playing guitar and singing to Marvin with Lily adding percussion:]
Marshall: Night, night, little Marvin Stars twinkle for you [Lily plays chimes] The Dreamland train's a-chuggin' [Lily blows train whistle] All your dreams will come true And the horsie says, "Good night" [Lily plays wood scraper block] And the birdie says, "Good night" [Lily blows bird whistle] And the elephant says, "Good night" [Lily plays tuba] And the skeleton playing his own rib cage Says, "Good Night" [Lily plays xylophone] And the robot says, "Good night"
Lily: [uses a voice-changing megaphone] Good night.
Man: [o.s.] Enough with the damn music!
Marshall: [singing] And Mr. Nesbit says, "Good night" And the whole world says, "Good night" Take it, Mommy.
[Lily plays the violin]
Quote from Robin
Robin: I appreciate what you're doing. But I'm not chasing after Barney anymore. I just got done being crazy about all that. I mean, why would I want to throw myself back in that pit?
Ted: Because you're in love with him.
Robin: No, I'm not. I'm happy for him.
Ted: So, it doesn't bother you that Barney Stinson's gonna propose to another woman on top of the World Wide News building?
Robin: Wait, why the top of the World Wide News building?
Ted: I guess it's Patrice's favorite spot in the city.
Robin: Damn it, Patrice, that's my favorite spot in the city!
Ted: Whoa. [phone chimes] Ranjit says, "Whoa."
Quote from Ted
Ted: Look, I just appreciate you showing up at all on your big night away. I mean, Barney's not even gonna be there.
Marshall: What?
Robin: This is the biggest night of your career. Why isn't Barney coming?
Ted: I don't know. He said, "Legendary" and "Challenge accepted," and then he winked. "Wait for it," you know, all that stuff.
Marshall: That does sound like him.
