I was just watching "It Ain't Sheik" and I loved this exchange:

Benson: You know Kraus, there are moments when you are simply magnificent.
Kraus: Thank you, Benson.
Benson: Moment's over.

What are some of your favorite quotes? Let's get a whole fun thread going here! :D

It'd be cool to get a "best quotes" of each episode going. Of course, that would mean actually *seeing* the show... :-/

Hope it comes back soon. Anyway, I'll see what I can find!

The one line that gets me the most is Benson saying "This is the WORST Luau I have ever been to." when the plumber dies :lol:

From: Episode #43 – Handwriting on the Wall --

Clayton: You know what the problem is, Benson? It’s the system. The government has gotten so complex, it’s almost impossible to do anything. So why do I keep trying? Why am I here?

Benson: Come off it, Clayton. You’re good at what you do. The governor needs you, the state needs you. That’s why you’re here.

Clayton: You’re right, of course. Thank you. [Pause] You know, I’d like to return the compliment, but try as I may, I find it impossible to be insincere.

From: Episode #49 – Sit-In --

Benson: I’ll get to it as soon as I can hear myself think.

Clayton: Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps there’s nothing to hear?

From: Episode #53 – Rainbow’s End --

Clayton: Don’t you people ever get tired of talking behind my back?

Benson: I don’t.

From: Episode #55 – Kraus Falls in Love --

Benson, wanting to get Kraus alone with her beau: Governor, why don’t you finish telling me that story about how three-fingered Jack got his name?

Gene: You mean I never told you that story?

Benson: Not yet.

Gene: It’s the most amazing thing. You know, I don’t usually tell this story, it takes forever.

Benson, giving Kraus a look: You owe me one.

OH yeah--I love this one, from "Let's Get Physical":

Kraus: What's the matter with you? Are you too good to answer the phone?
Clayton: (very matter-of-factly): Yes.

:lol:

my Favorite is Gene you mean I Nervery did tell you that Story

A couple more…

From: Episode #96 -- Who’s Arnold? --

Benson: If you still want me to pretend to be Arnold, I'll do it, but just until she leaves.

Kraus: You would do that for me?

Benson: Of course, I'm your friend.

Kraus: You mean it?

Benson: Temporarily.

****

From: Episode #108 -- The Endicott dynasty --

Benson: Why don’t you just ask for your old job back…

Clayton: I can’t do that. I can’t come crawling back.

Pete: Why not? You’ve crawled before.

Bensaon Why dont you asked for your old Job back

The episode "In The Red", when Pete talks about having woman problems and Clayton says, "Oh, what's the matter? Did someone puncture your date?" :lol:

From: Episode #131 -- Mid-Life Crisis --

(While on a dude ranch, Gene goes missing and a posse is formed)

Benson: Alright, that settles it. I'll need a horse.

Kraus: What about me?

Benson: Good. Saddle her up.
