George Quote #846
Quote from George in The Chaperone
George: Okay, Danny, take a swing. [Tartabull swings] N-No! No! No! You're opening up your shoulder.
Tartabull: Really?
George: No, not really. I'm just saying this to you because I like to hear myself talk. Yes, really!
Tartabull: All right, all right. [wipes sweat from his brow]
George: What are you all sweatin' for?
Tartabull: It's hot in this uniform.
George: Hot? [feels Tartabull's uniform] What is this?
Tartabull: What is what?
George: This uniform. What's it made from?
Tartabull: I don't know, cotton?
George: No. This is not cotton. Here, lemme see. [Tartabull resists as George tries to take a peek at his label] Will you stop it? Oh. Of course. Polyester!
Tartabull: So?
George: I can't believe you're not playing in cotton.
Tartabull: Well, this is what they give us.
George: You know they used to make leisure suits out of this fabric?
Tartabull: You really think cotton's better?
George: Of course! All right, maybe I'll say something to Buck.
Tartabull: Yeah, good idea. Catch you later. [exits]
George: Hey, don't embarrass me today. I got some friends in the stands.

Quote from Elaine
Mrs. Landis: Of course, Jackie O. was a great lady. Those are going to be some tough shoes to fill. Everyone loved her. She had such... grace.
Elaine: Yes. Grace.
Mrs. Landis: Not many people have grace.
Elaine: Well, you know, grace is a tough one. I like to think I have a little grace. Not as much as Jackie.
Mrs. Landis: You can't have "a little grace." You either have grace, or you... don't.
Elaine: Okay, fine, I have... no grace.
Mrs. Landis: And you can't acquire grace.
Elaine: Well, I have no intention of "getting" grace.
Mrs. Landis: Grace isn't something you can pick up at the market.
Elaine: All right, all right, look. I don't have grace, I don't want grace... I don't even say grace, okay?
Mrs. Landis: Thank you for coming in.
Elaine: Yeah, yeah, right.
Mrs. Landis: We'll make our choice in a few days, and we'll let you know.
Elaine: [stands up] I have no chance, do I?
Mrs. Landis: No. [they shake hands]
Quote from Jerry
[stand-up:]
Jerry: I've always wondered why baseball is so associated with sex. "He's playing the field," "Ho, he scored," "Oh, he didn't get to first base." "I struck out." "Why?" "She wanted a diamond." It's always baseball. Always baseball. As far as baseball goes, I prefer the fat umpires. I feel if you're on the field and you're not in the game, you should be in the worst physical condition a human being could possibly be in. They should be allowed to eat during the game. We're a little too into sports in this country. I think we gotta throttle back. You know what I mean? People come home from these games, "We won! We won!" No, they won, you watched.
Quote from Elaine
Woman: [over intercom] Justin Pitt to see you.
Elaine: Justin Pitt?
Mrs. Landis: He was a very close friend of Mrs. Onassis's.
Elaine: "Mrs. Onassis's"? That's hard to pronounce.
Mrs. Landis: Excuse me?
Elaine: Nothing.
[Mr. Pitt enters the office with a stack of papers]
Mr. Pitt: Mrs. Landis, there's something wrong with this copying machine, it's all coming out slanted. Now, I don't know if this is your department or not.
Mr. Pitt: Justin Pitt, this is Elaine Benes.
[Elaine has wrapped a scarf around her hair and put black glasses on. Mr. Pitt is taken aback by her resemblance to Jackie O.]
Mr. Pitt: Charmed.
Elaine: I was a great admirer of Mrs. Onass-sis-sis-sis...
