Quote from Jerry in The Invitations

Jerry: Me and Kramer...
[fantasy: Jerry is reading on his couch when Kramer enters the apartment:]
Kramer: Hey, buddy. I thought of a great invention for driving. A periscope in a car, so you can see the traffic.
Jerry: How you gonna drive when looking through a periscope? Besides which, it's not a submarine. There's no room for a periscope in a car.
Kramer: Huh! You make a higher roof.
Jerry: They're not making higher roofs.
Kramer: Well, why can't you make a higher roof?
Jerry: Because it's a stupid idea. No one's gonna go for it. Don't you understand? It's stupid. It's stupid...
[reality: Jerry is about to walk out into the street]
Jerry: Stupid , stupid.
Jeannie: Hey! Hey! Look out. [pulls Jerry back] Are you okay?
Jerry: Yeah! Thanks. Oh, my God, you saved my life.
Jeannie: Shouldn't there be some kind of reward for that?

Quote from George

George: It's coming, Jerry. It's coming.
Jerry: What's coming?
George: The day.
Jerry: Ah, the day.
George: We ordered the wedding invitations today. Nothing can stop it now. Nothing. It's here! It's happening. Can I do this? I can't do this! Look at me. Look at me. I can't do this! I can't do this! Help me, Jerry, help me.
Jerry: Why don't you just break it off with her? Tell her it's over.
George: I can't.
Jerry: Why not?
George: 'cause I can't face that scene. You know what kind of scene that would be? I'd rather be unhappy for the rest of my life than go through something like that. I can't! I can't! I've tried to psyche myself up a million times, I cannot go through that.

Quote from George

Jerry: So write a letter, move to another borough. Move to Staten Island. It's a lot easier to blend in a sea of people in Staten Island than China believe me.
George: Yeah. Yeah. Staten Island. What about my clothes, how do I get the rest of the clothes?
Jerry: Aah, you come back for your clothes.
George: I'm not going back in there.
Jerry: So forget about your clothes.
George: Well, I'm not starting up a whole new wardrobe now!
Jerry: Look, freedom with no clothes is a lot better than no freedom with clothes.

Quote from Jerry

Jerry: I think I'm in love.
Kramer: Oh, come on.
Jerry: No, it's true. This woman saved my life. I was crossing the street .I was almost hit by a car. And then we talked, and the whole thing just seemed like a dream.
Kramer: If a guy saved your life you'd be in love with him too.
Jerry: No, this woman is different. She's incredible. She's just like me. She talks like me. She acts like me. She even orders cereal in a restaurant. We even have the same initials. Wait a minute, I just realized what's going on.
Kramer: What?
Jerry: Now I know what I've been looking for all these years... Myself. I've been waiting for me to come along. And now I've swept myself off my feet.
Kramer: You stop it man. You're freaking me out!
