Natalie: We promised Dr. Kroger we wouldn't leave you alone.
Adrian Monk: I am not suicidal. I just wish I was never born. There's a difference.

Natalie: Are you afraid of frogs?
Adrian Monk: I don't know. I've never been this close to one. [A frog lands on Monk's shoe] Yes. The answer is yes. Put frogs on the list. Where's the list?
Natalie: I got it. I got it. Where does it go?
Adrian Monk: Put them between possums and, uh, soccer riots. No, no, no. Uh, after after soccer riots. And before, uh, before hailstones. Yeah, so it goes...
Natalie: I got it, I got it: Soccer riots, frogs, hailstones.
Adrian Monk: At least now we know. Information really is power.

Captain Stottlemeyer: Disher told me that you put the grenade in the refrigerator.
Adrian Monk: Yeah.
Captain Stottlemeyer: And then he said you went back and opened it again. You just had to straighten something out, didn't you? I'm gonna ask the Mayor to give you a medal for what you did. And then I'm gonna ask the Mayor to take that medal back. Because you just had to open that door, didn't you?
Adrian Monk: So it's a wash?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Yeah, it's a wash.

Younger Trudy: Excuse me. Hello. I can't find a book. This is not the Dewey Decimal System that I know and love. Do you work here?
Younger Adrian: Yes, I- Yes, I do. Uh, here's the thing. We're reorganizing. And we're- We're moving all the stacks upstairs. What are you looking for?
Younger Trudy: This is a long shot. Trevor Rosenthal's biography of Alexander Pope. Volume two.
[Monk walks over to an unorganized pile of books and returns with the biography]
Younger Trudy: How did you do that?
Younger Adrian: I saw it last week.
Younger Trudy: And you remembered?
Younger Adrian: If I see something once, I never forget it.
Younger Trudy: That sounds pretty awful. My bad memory is my salvation.
Younger Adrian: "Thus let me live, unseen, unknown. Thus unlamented, let me die..."
Younger Trudy: "Steal from the world and not a stone tell where I lie." You know Alexander Pope. So you never forget anything? For example, you're never gonna forget this? Me, us talking right now?
