Quote from Newman

Jerry: Well, you should have seen the pile of albums this old guy I was visiting today was throwing away: Sinatra, Duke Ellington, Al Jolson, Benny Goodman.
Kramer: Wait, wait, wait, now. He's throwing them out??
Jerry: Yeah, and then I asked him if my friend could have them and he said yeah.
Kramer: Okay.
Newman: [in Kramer's ear] The old coot's sittin' on a mountain of gold!

Quote from George

Jerry: Yeah, I'm going there today. In fact you should see this house keeper he's got. She's from Senegal... Wild, wild, stuff...
George: Senegal?

George: So you don't speak any English at all?
Housekeeper: English? No.

Quote from Jerry

Sid: Hey, what are those bums doing back there?

Sid: It's like watching a couple of hyenas going through the garbage.

Quote from Elaine

Mrs. Oliver: And we would take long automobile trips...
Elaine: Oh, well, that sounds like a lot of fun...
Mrs. Oliver: Staring out the window...
Elaine: Uh-huh.
Mrs. Oliver: You'd see a long view of rolling pastures and...
Elaine: Well, that'll get you going right there.
Mrs. Oliver: Big, roaming cows...
Elaine: Cows, well that's fascinating.
Mrs. Oliver: That's when I began my affair with Mohandas.

Mrs. Oliver: Mohandas.
Elaine: Ghandhi?
Mrs. Oliver: Oh, the passion! The forbidden pleasure!

Mrs. Oliver: He used to dip his bald head in oil and rub it all over my body. Here, look... [shows an old picture]
Elaine: Oh, my God. The Mahatma?

Quote from Newman

Ron: Twenty bucks.
Newman: Twenty bucks?!? Are you out of your mind?
Ron: Well, take it or leave it.
Newman: Take it or leave it!? We got Al Jolson here. Al Jolson!
Ron: Al Jolson? What the hell do I care about Al Jolson. I'd just as soon as hear you sing "Mammy".

Quote from Newman

Kramer: [in Newman's ear] This guy's nothin' but a piece of crap...
Newman: You are nothing but a piece of crap.

Newman: You emit a foul and unpleasant odor.
Ron: Oh, is that right?
Kramer: [in Newman's ear] I loathe you.

Agency Rep: Why were you taking him to the dentist?
Jerry: Um, well, his false teeth got mangled up in the garbage disposal.

Jerry: Well, after he bit my friend.
Agency Rep: Bit your friend?!
