Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Excuse me.
Leonard: Oh, please don't.
Sheldon: Uh, uh, I couldn't help but notice that you cut the line.

Raj: He's got him there. The D even stands for department.
Quote from Leonard

Quote from Leonard
Leonard: Buddy, let it go.
Sheldon: No, I can't. This isn't right.

Penny: (Sarcastically to Bernadette) Thank you.
Quote from Penny
Penny: Wow. Okay. Well, um, how about this? Maybe while you're still in town, Leonard and I could have another small ceremony. You know, if you're interested.

Penny: She would find it perfectly acceptable. You guys saw it. We bonded!
Quote from Leonard

Quote from Sheldon
Sheldon: Why don't you want to get your mother from the airport?
Leonard: Well, I can do without the 40-minute car ride where she criticizes every aspect of my life.
Sheldon: She can cover it in a car ride? I could do 40 minutes on your posture alone.
Quote from Leonard
Howard: We've waited in a lot of lines together, havent we?

Raj: Yeah, sleeping under the stars with other fans who love the show as much as we do.
Leonard: Waking up, wondering which one of those fans stole our wallets.
Quote from Beverly Hofstadter
Amy: You know, just when I think we're making progress in our relationship, we revert to our old patterns where thoughts and feelings go unexpressed. I mean, if he didn't want to go shopping with me, why didn't he just say so?
Beverly: Maybe he couldn't get a word in edgewise.
