Quote from George

George: So, what do you think?
Mr. Morgan: A PBS fundraiser? I'm not gonna waste any of the players' time with that, besides the team already does so much promotion for Channel 11.
George: Channel 11? Forgive me for trying to class up this place, for trying to have the Yankees reach another strata of society that might not watch Channel 11.

Mr. Morgan: Uh, what the hell are you doing?
George: I am eating my dessert. How do you eat it, with your hands?
Mr. Morgan: You know, maybe George has something here about PBS.

Quote from Kramer

Kramer: New cards, huh?
Jerry: No, they're old cards from my grandmother.
Kramer: Oh. Well, I'll tell you, a nice greeting card can really lift a person's spirits.
Jerry: Yeah.
Kramer: Ooh, a check.
Jerry: Yeah, she puts ten dollars in every card for my birthday. That's why I save them.
Kramer: Wait. There's a check in all these? Why don't you cash them?
Jerry: I don't know. It's ten dollars.
Kramer: But you got a whole pile here. 1987?
Jerry: Oh, so what?
Kramer: Jerry, your grandmother gave you this gift. She wants you to spend the money, to have the fun that she can't have. Oh, this is tantamount to a slap in the face.
Jerry: Oh, get out of here.
Kramer: Jerry, a gift not enjoyed is like a flower that doesn't blossom.
