Schmidt Quote #585
Schmidt: Hello! Uh, Jess, I'd like you to know that I've changed my mind, and I won't be coming to your party tonight. I've been e-mailing with an old friend of mine, and he made me realize that I should give Cece her space.
Nick: An old friend, huh?
Schmidt: Well, Nick knows. You know, I don't like to throw his name around because I don't like people treating me any differently, but It's Michael Keaton.
Jess: What?! [laughs]
Schmidt: Uh, okay. Calm down.
Jess: The actor?! [laughs]
Schmidt: Seriously, you guys. Don't treat me any different. He's kind of my friend. Michael Keaton. There was one time he e-mailed me. He said he was my best friend. Anyway, we have so much catching up to do, me and Michael, so just enjoy the night.

‘Keaton’ Quotes
Quote from Winston
Nick: Keaton hasn't written Schmidt in three years. We have no idea how Schmidt is gonna react. If Schmidt finds out Keaton isn't real, it'll destroy the entire life he has built around him. We are talking about a Truman Show situation.
Winston: Oh, yeah, I love that movie. What part are you talking about?
Nick: Well, I'm talking about the part in the movie when Truman realizes that his whole life is a lie, and then he goes crazy.
Winston: Yeah, yeah, yeah, right there in the middle of the movie.
Jess: No, it's the whole movie.
Winston: Oh, yeah, I know, I was just 'cause there's the one... There's like a scene.
Jess: You haven't seen it.
Nick: He didn't see the movie.
Quote from Jess
Jess: So let's fire up the Batman Mobile, go to a taco stand and eat some feelings, okay?
Cece: Okay, I just... I think it's Batmobile.
Jess: Batman Mobile.
Cece: No. Batmobile.
Jess: That's what I said Batman Mobile.
Cece: You're putting the man. There's no man. It's just Bat-
Jess: Batman Mobile.
Cece: Mobile.
Jess: Batman Mobile.
Cece: Batmobile. Drop the man.
Jess: Batman Mobile.
Cece: Batmobile.
Jess: Batmo-mobile.
Quote from Nick
Nick: I haven't been inside Keaton's mind in a long time, and I need my proper inspiration. [to Winston] Thank you.
Jess: Why do you have a picture of a bear?
Nick: The great Michael Keaton attacks each new role with the ferocity of a hungry brown bear. It is his entire acting philosophy, which I totally made up.
Jess: I sleep with this person.
Nick: Speak to me, Keaton. [drinks] Mmm. Here we go. [electronic whoosh]
Jess: Oh, hey, Nick, that's incredible. "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it"?
Nick: Yes, I stole that from Nelson Mandela. I added the part about the Penguin and the Riddler.
