Here are some quotes from each episode of The Partridge Family :

"THE PARTRIDGE PAPERS"

Shirley: What could be in a diary that would be embarrassing? What could be in a diary that would be so embarrassing?

Laurie: Lots of things.

Shirley: Like.

Laurie: Like,when I was 12,and you took me to Hanley's Department Store... You know,when we went to the lingerie department... The time that I got my first...

(Shirley Laughing): There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Every girl that age gets one!

Laurie: I know,but sometimes in a diary,you exaggerate things a little.

Shirley: What did you say?

Laurie: D!

"ANATOMY OF A TONSIL"

Punky: Hi,Danny.

Danny:(Hoarsely) Hi,Punky. Guess what? I'm going to the doctors to get my tonsils out.

Punky: I know. Your mom told me.

Danny: Did she tell you how brave I was when I found out?

Punky: She didn't mention it.

Danny: Oh. Well,the doctor leveled with me. He said "Danny,old chap,this is a very extremely dangerous operation. Can you handle it?",and I said "Dr. Millstead,I can handle anything you can dish out at me,just give me a bullet to bite on." And then I laughed "Ha,Ha!" Do you know why I laughed?

Punky: You were laughing at the face of danger.

Danny: Yeah,right.

Are there any other quotes yo remember that are the best? Let me know!

I would have to say,from "What?And Get Out Of Showbusiness?"
when the family is rehearsing "Let The Good Times In":

Laurie: You know,I've been thinking about these lyrics.

Keith: What about them?

Laurie: Well,do you think that they're really relevant?

Keith: Relevant?!! One lousy stand-in,and suddenly she's Joan Baez.

Laurie: Don't put me down because I have a social concience. I simply can't reply to anything isn't exactly relevant!

Danny: Well,this song is very relevant.

Laurie: To What?

Danny: To eating:The right promotion of this record will make a million.

Are there any other lines that you think is :

Those are all great, and I love the ones from The Partridge Papers.

Quotes from The Partridge Papers would be some of my favorites.

How about these...

From "I Can Get It For You Retail":
Keith: "It all started when I lost my pickle!"

From several episodes:
Chris and/or Tracy: "Whoooo?"

From "Did You Hear The One About Danny Partridge?":
Danny (after crawling out from behind the amplifier onstage): "Mom, I can't find my thing"
Shirley (in shock): "WHAT?!?"

A PARTRIDGE UP A PEAR TREE -- Keith's hard-up for money trying to keep his old junker Hudson running, and is hitting up everyone in the family --
Keith: "Chris, old buddy, how'd you like to go for a ride in my car?"
Chris: "I'd love to go for a ride in your car Keith, but I'm not giving you any money!"

and later at the dinner table --
Chris: "So if you didn't have a car or Carol, you'd have lots of money."
Keith: "Yeah, but who could live without a car or a girlfriend?"
Chris: "I could. I do it all the time!"

A PARTRIDGE BY ANY OTHER NAME -- the kids are trying to convince Danny he's not adopted, and show him and old photograph --
Keith: "We all looked at it and agree it's you."
Danny: "Looks like a basketball"
Chris: "That's your head! Don't you even recognize your own head?"

BUT THE MEMORY LINGERS ON -- the family has just taken baths, mistakenly thinking they've eliminated the skunk smell --
Chris: "You know it's weird, but I can still smell that stuff."
Keith: "Well it's probably just your imagination."
Chris: "I sure have a pretty powerful imagination!"

THE RED WOODLOE STORY -- Shirley thinks the singer at a church service is an famous folk singer--
Shirley: "Listen to him. That's Red Woodloe."
Reuben: "Couldn't be. He's been dead for years."
Tracy (whispering to Chris): "He's dead!"
Chris (swallowing hard): "Don't worry, he looks friendly enough....for a ghost."
