Some of
his lines Jerry:
What is that, a Pez dispenser?
Kramer: Want one? Yeah, I just
bought it at the flea market.
George: Hey, what goes on there,
exactly?
Jerry: You don't know?
George: No, I-I-I know... I
know...
Jerry: You think they have fleas
there, don't you?
George: No...!
Jerry: Yes you do, Biff. You've
never been to a flea market, and you think they
have fleas there!
George: Alright, I think they
have fleas there. So what...?
In "The Pez
Dispenser"
George:
I was spotting those raccoons...
Jerry: They were mailboxes, you
idiot! I didn't have the heart to tell you.
In "The
Glasses"
Jerry:
So let me get this straight. You find yourself in
the kitchen, you see an eclair in the receptacle,
and you think to yourself, 'What the hell, I'll
just eat some trash.'
George: No, no, no. It was not
trash!
Jerry: Was it in the trash?
George: Yes.
Jerry: Then it was trash.
George: It wasn't down in. It
was sort of on top.
Jerry: But it was in the
cylinder.
George: Above the rim.
Jerry: Adjacent to refuse is...
refuse.
George: It was on a magazine.
And it still had the doily on.
Jerry: Was it eaten?
George: One little bite.
Jerry: Well, that's garbage.
George: But I know who took the
bite. It was her aunt.
Jerry: Well, you, my friend,
have crossed the line that divides man and bum.
You are now a bum...
In "The
Gymnast"
George:
There's nothing to talk about.
Jerry: Ah, what's there to talk
about?
George: Well, at least you and I
are talking about how there's nothing to talk
about.
Jerry: Why don't you talk with
her about how there's nothing to talk about?
George: She knows there's
nothing to talk about.
Jerry: At least she'll be
talking.
George: Oh, shut up.
In "The
Stand-In"
