I like in the episode 'The Art of Dick' when Dick and Harry are talking about Harry's painting of the 'thing that came out of that guys stomach':

'And we hit it and we hit it and it just wouldnt die!'

my favorite quote is when mary albright decides to make a documentary about the solomon's and they were afraid of getting exposed. so that is why sally asked harry to start a fire. i don't remember the exact conversation but here is what sally told harry
starting a fire alarm without a fire? harry that is illegal

I liked the part in The Art of Dick where someone says Harry's still life painting looks like rotting garbage and Harry says something like "Yes, I need to learn to paint faster."

Mary (to Nina): "Exactly when does puberty end for a man?" Nina: "Six months after death."

Dick: "I think it's because we're friends." Harry (singing): "So. No. One. Told You. It. Was gonna be that way." (the Solomons do a handclap.)

Big Giant head: "well done Lieutenant, I like the cut of your jib."
Sally: "Thank you Sir, I've been working on my jib."

There's so many excellent lines. which one to choose???:lol:

Dick: Oh my God! I'm Gorgeous!

Dick: "I think it's because we're friends."
Harry (singing): "So, no one told you it was gonna be that way." (the Solomons do a hand clap.)

:lol:

Dick: 8am In The Morning?

Mary: Does everything have to involve you?
Dick: In a perfect world. Yes!

Dick: "What's the point of having a democracy if everybody's going to vote wrong?"

Sally: "Isn't there a place where people can have mindless sex with different partners?" Mary: "Yeah! It's called the 70s."

Sally (to The Big Giant Head): "So how was your trip, sir?" TBGH: "Horrifying! at first. I looked out the window...and...I saw something on the wing of the plane."
Dick: "The same thing happened to me!"

this is a good thread

Dick: Sally, I want you to observe her, find out what women on this planet do.
Sally: Why can't Harry do it?
Dick: Because you're the woman.
Sally: That brings up a very good question: why am I the woman?
Dick: Because you lost.

Harry: "Women... You can't live with 'em, and yet they're everywhere."

Tommy: Sally, they want you to appear on Good Afternoon, Rutherford.
Harry: That's my second-favorite show!
Dick: What's your first-favorite?
Harry: Good Morning, Rutherford.

Dick: "Why are you listening to a serpent? Don't eat the fruit..."

Mary: "I think somebody has an admirer."
Sally: "Great; now can we talk about me?"

Harry: "When do I get to touch her breasts?"
Sally: "Right before you die."
Harry: "Fair enough."

Harry: "Orange juice... nontoxic."

Nina: "Tonight's the night I get my eyes gouged out."

Dick: "Knowledge is the only chance this planet has for survival!"

Nina: "See, Sally, there's just no dealing with the opposite sex."

Sally: "I'm supposed to be this way. I'm a woman."

Evil Dick: Watch the destruction my little device wreaks on the world you love so well.
Dick: [outraged] What have you done to our toaster?

Nina: "I had a boyfriend who used to burn up on reentry. He walks with a limp now."

Mary: (to Dick) "For future reference, I have a red Volvo."
Dick: "Please! Dr. Albright... We barely know each other."

Dick: "I have a plaan."
Sally: "Remember we're not allowed to liquefy humans."
Dick: (pause) "Okay, I have another plaan."

Tommy: You work at the university.
Evil Dick: [smugly] Ah, so I run the university.
Tommy: Well, not so much run as teach a physics class.
Evil Dick: I'm a teacher? Were all the janitor's jobs taken?

Harry: "Ohhh, yeah."

Dick: Sally, I want you to observe her, find out what women on this planet do.
Sally: Why can't Harry do it?
Dick: Because you're the woman.
Sally: That brings up a very good question: why am I the woman?
Dick: Because you lost.

Roy Albright: (to Tommy)"Cut your hair, you look like a girl."

Tommy: "I feel like Tommy Longstocking!"

Dick Solomon:
Who needs Christmas anyway? I say "Bug Humbar".

(First line of the series.)
Radio Show Host: "All right; we're still taking calls about those UFO sightings..."

Harry: "I have three holes in my face..."

Dick: (v.o.)"Our home for this mission is Earth, a third rate planet."

Dick: "On this planet, size matters."

Leon: "Cleveland is an eternity away."

Dick: "I'm in command."
Tommy: "Yeah, well, I'm in puberty, pal."
Dick: "I don't care what you say, it can't be that bad."
Tommy: "I could pop at any minute."
Dick: "Aren't you exaggerating, just a little?"
Tommy: "Here. Give me your mind for just a second."
Dick: "Oh, please."
Tommy: "Come on! Just give me your mind."
(Dick reads Tommy's mind for a few seconds.)
Dick: "Oh! That's disgusting! You think like that?"
Tommy: "All the time."

Dr. Mary Albright:
For future reference: I have a red Volvo.

Dr. Dick Solomon:
Please, Dr. Albright, we barely know each other.

Dr. Mary Albright:
For future reference: I have a red Volvo.

Dr. Dick Solomon:
Please, Dr. Albright, we barely know each other.

Dick: "I don't understand. What power does this letter have?"
Mary: "The power to waste your time."

Harry: "Still tryin' to make up for the Museum of Miniatures, huh?"
Tommy: "Yep."

Don: "The pretty boy of hockey."

Mary: "Sorry we're late... My carburetor caught on fire!"

Tommy: "How am I supposed to compete with guys like that?"

Dick: "...I was too busy yanking on Dubcek's ears."

Harry Solomon:
You know, one thing I learned - television always goes better with food.

Dick: "Like fake father, like fake son."

Dick: (to Harry)"You don't want me to be your dad anymore?"
Harry: "No."
Dick: "Good. (holds up thumb and forefinger a quarter of an inch apart)Because I was this close to DROP-KICKING YOUR SORRY BUTT FROM HERE TO THE OUTLET MALL!!!"

Dick: "Well, I can make a fat cat laugh... I can even make him vomit."

August: (to Tommy)"So you think dumb people are funny?"

Man: "If it's his coat, how come I'm wearing it?"
Sally: "Good point."
(She punches him.)

Sally: "That's how they work."

Dick: "High commanders are forbidden to kill; they're considered upper management."

Dick: "We didn't make a lot of mistakes."

Harry Solomon:
Hey, I've seen this before. This is stain-resistant carpet, watch.

[Harry pours the entire contents of a coke can on the carpet and wipes it with his foot, but nothing happens]

Harry Solomon:
That's a good place for a chair.
