Quote from The Doodle

Elaine: It's a story about love, deception, greed, lust, and unbridled enthusiasm.
Mandel: Unbridled enthusiasm?
Elaine: Yeah, yeah. That's right. That's what led to [clears throat] Billy Mumphrey's downfall.
Mandel: Interesting take. So you believe that had he not been so enthusiastic, he could have averted disaster.
Elaine: Yes. Yes, that's right. You see... You see, Billy Mumphrey was a simple country boy, some might say a cockeyed optimist, who got caught up in the dirty game of world diplomacy and international intrigue.
Mandel: So it was more a question of attitude than politics.
Elaine: Yes. Yes, Mr. Mandel.

Jerry: Because that's your thing!

Jerry: Yeah, that's your thing.
Elaine: All right, give me the phone. It's my thing.

Elaine: You don't have any furniture?
Carl: No, I hate furniture. I can't look at it. [they laugh again]
Elaine: Well, I can understand that. Pretty good date, huh?
Carl: Yeah. No heavy lifting. [they kiss]
