Quote from Jerry in The Truth

[stand-up:]
Jerry: Why is it so difficult, uncomfortable to be naked. It's because when you have clothes on, you can always kinda make those little adjustments that people like to do...

Jerry: if this audit had happened to me and I didn't have this woman to help me, I would have killed this man. I would have strangled the life out of him with my bare hands.
Elaine: I don't blame you.
Jerry: Have you ever been through an audit?
Elaine: No.
Jerry: It's hell. It's the financial equivalent of a complete rectal examination. I would have killed this man. Torn him limb from limb, ripped the flesh right off his bones...
