Quote from George

George: Boy, she is nice. I like her. I like her, Jerry. She's got substance. She oozes substance.
Jerry: Well, go in there and talk to her. She's not going to put them on glass.
George: You mean the walk back in? That's the toughest move in the business. You're sending me out to no-man's-land, and if I get shot down I have to crawl all the way back. Well, I can't do it! I can't do it, I tell you!
Jerry: Pull yourself together. You're going in there, soldier! That's an order! Get in there.

Quote from Kramer

Kramer: Listen, I need you to do me a favor.
Jerry: What?
Kramer: Well, I need you to help me move my refrigerator.
Jerry: Why?
Kramer: 'cause I'm getting rid of it.

Quote from Jerry

Kramer: Oh boy, that looks great. I can't believe you're giving him this.
Kenny Bania: I don't even want anything for it.
Kramer: He's very generous, isn't he?
Jerry: Yes, yes, he is.
Kenny Bania: I'll tell you what. You can take me out to dinner sometime.
Jerry: Dinner?
Kenny Bania: Yeah, you buy me a meal. You can't get a better deal than that.
Kramer: No, you'll never get a better deal than that.

Quote from Jerry

Kramer: All right. Ooh, look at that Armani. Yeah.
Jerry: Yeah, that's a deal. That's a horrible deal. I don't want to go out to dinner with him. I'd rather make my own suit.

Quote from Elaine

Elaine: So the trip was good?
Simon: Yes. Apart from that, dreadful airline food. It tends to reek havoc with my stomach.
Elaine: You know I, I have to say, I've never admitted this to anyone, but um, I kind of like airline food.
Simon: That's probably because of... [muttering]
Elaine: What?
Simon: What?
Elaine: Yeah, what?
Simon: [sighs]
Elaine: What?
Simon: Where I come from, we don't say "What?". It's proper to say "Pardon?"
Elaine: Huh. [muttering]
Simon: Pardon?
Elaine: Nothing.

Quote from George

Jerry: So you just pretended it didn't bother you?
George: What is that, boyfriend? I don't understand that. What- What does she think I asked her out for?
Jerry: Boy, It's the way they just slip that in there too.
George: Yeah, like it's just part of the conversation. “Oh, my boyfriend really likes watches. He's a real watch freak.” Well, that's fabulous.
Jerry: Well, let me ask you this. What exactly did you say when you asked her out?
George: I said, “would you like to go for a walk or something.”
Jerry: Oh, a walk. Well...
George: Or something. I said, "Or something."
Jerry: Or something. Yeah, that's a date.
George: [snaps finger] There you go.

Quote from George

Jerry: And it was around this point that she mentioned the boyfriend?
George: Yeah. Oh, you think because of what I said about the manure. I wa- I was just saying how it takes a negative thing, and puts it on a positive spin on it.
Jerry: I'm just saying there's a chance she may not have been enamored with your thoughts and feelings on manure.
George: So you don't think she really has a boyfriend?
Jerry: My honest opinion, I think she made it up.
George: Well, then she's just a liar, isn't she?

Quote from Kramer

Kramer: And I got a date with that waitress that works at Reggie's.
Jerry: Boy, if i could meet a hostess, we could open up our own place.
Kramer: Yeah, well, I'll tell you, she's a full-figured gal.
Jerry: Is she?
Kramer: Oh, you better believe it buddy.

Quote from Jerry

Jerry: [answers phone] Hello?
Kenny Bania: Hi, Jerry. It's Kenny.
Jerry: Oh, hi.
Kenny Bania: You know, I was thinking if you're not busy, maybe I could get my meal today?
Jerry: [long pause] Yeah, you wanna get that meal, don't you?
Kenny Bania: How about Mendy's? Ooh, ever been there?
Jerry: No, I haven't.
Kenny Bania: Ah, you'll love it. I'll meet you there around 7:00.
Jerry: All right. [hangs up the phone] Yeah, I really needed that suit.

Quote from Elaine

Simon: Elaine, do you have any cash on you?
Elaine: Um, yeah in my purse.
Simon: No. There was only six dollars.
Jerry: Well, I have some money. What do you need?
Simon: Well, 20 should cover me. Thanks, mate.
Elaine: Where you going?
Simon: Just visiting.
Elaine: Oh, okay. See you later.
Simon: I won't be back for dinner. [walks away]
Elaine: [British accent] Pardon?
