Quote from George in The Conversion

George: This was the only woman I never lied to. Well, that's not entirely true.
[Jerry and Elaine start picking at the lobster leftovers]
Elaine: Mmm, delicious.
Jerry: Mmm, succulent.
George: She knew I didn't have a job. She knew I lived at home. Didn't seem to bother her. I think I could have married this woman.
Elaine: Why don't you just ask her parents?
George: I can't. I met them. They're devout. You know, in the cab on the way over here, I actually thought about converting.
Jerry: To Latvian Orthodox?
George: Why not? What do I care?
Jerry: You know, it's not like changing toothpaste.

George: Brother Costanza will be taking the vow of silence.

Quote from George

Older Priest: I must say, George, I was somewhat surprised at the results of your conversion test. I don't recall having seen such an impressive performance. You truly must be filled with the spirit of the Lord.
George: Oh, I'm... I'm full of it, Father.

Quote from Jerry

[stand-up:]
Jerry: You know, doctor is supposed to be such a prestigious occupation. But it’s really like one of the only jobs where you have to have your diploma right up there on the wall. It makes them seem so insecure, doesn't it? "I really am a doctor, you know. You think I'm not, just check it out." I mean, I don't know why they need these little bits of psychological leverage over us all the time. "Go in that little room, take your pants off, wait 15 minutes, and then I'll give you my opinion." I mean, after that, anyone that comes in with pants on seems like they know what they’re talking about. In any difference of opinion, pants always beats no-pants.
