- That means taxonomists created the entire category of lesser ape...
- Just to single out the poor gibbon as the weird kid on the playground.
- Now, there's a hairy little fella with a genuine beef.
- But the gibbon doesn't know what it's categorized as.
- It doesn't even know it's called a gibbon.
- True.
- Sorry, kid. You got it worse than a gibbon.

Bernadette: [noticing Emily's tattoo] That's a neat tattoo.
Emily: Oh, thanks. It's Sally from "Nightmare Before Christmas".
Bernadette: Aw, that movie's so cute.
Howard: Do you like her because you both have red hair?
Emily: A little, but more that she's covered with scars and can pull her own limbs off and sew them back on.
Bernadette: [awkward pause] I like "Cinderella".
Emily: Did you know in the original book the sisters cut their toes off with knives in order to fit in the glass slipper?
Bernadette: [looking uneasy] I like "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo".

Sheldon: His name is Alfred, and yes he does.

Amy: [Picks up a red dress] And what is this?

Bernadette: You still have it? I thought it would be balled up in the corner of a barn somewhere.
Penny: What kind of teenager did you think I was?

Stuart: What are you talking about? There's nothing weird going on between me and your mother.
Debbie: Stewie! Your bath is getting cold!
Stuart: Sorry, gotta go.

Stuart: So, I met Jeanie at your Aunt Gladys's. She passed me the Manischewitz, so I took one look at this punim and almost plotzed on the kugel.

Amy: Sheldon, are you all right?
Sheldon: Not really. I seem to be having a panic attack, according to this chatgroup I found. SoccerMom09 had the same symptoms. Although to be fair, the twins were being terrible that day.

Howard: He's gonna bring my mom. Why did you even invite him?
Bernadette: Because he's our friend, and you two need to get along. And why can't he take your mom? You took her to your prom.

Howard: Stuart, we have to talk. This thing with you and my mom, I-I hate it. It's making me crazy. You and I were friends for years, and now you're bringing my mother to a party I'm going to? What the hell?
Stuart: I'm not bringing your mother, I have a date.
Howard: Oh, so now you're cheating on my mother?

- Say cousin.

- Hang on. Heh. Sorry.
- Hey, Debbie.
- Uh, yeah, I'm here with jeanie.

- Yeah. I gotta go.

Howard: There are lots of people who wear matching pajamas who aren't dating.
Raj: Oh, really? Like who?
Howard: You and your dog.
Leonard: Don't rule out the dating.

Amy: Sheldon, there's something else I've been wanting to say. But before I do, just... I want you to know you don't have to say it back. I know you're not ready, and I don't want you to say it just because social convention dictates...
Sheldon: I love you too.
Amy: You said it.
Sheldon: There's no denying I have feelings for you that can't be explained in any other way. I briefly considered I had a brain parasite, but that seems even more far-fetched. The only conclusion was love.
[Amy starts hyperventilating]
Sheldon: I know what that is. You're having a panic attack. SoccerMom09 says to lie down on your back.
Amy: Thank you.
[runs over to Sheldon's bed]
Sheldon: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Just because I love you doesn't mean that girls are allowed in my room.

Sheldon: You think you got it bad, consider the gibbon. The gibbon is the only member of the ape family who isn't classified as a great ape. All the non-human members of the ape family are great apes except him, so taxologists made up the classification of lesser ape just to single him out as the weird kid in the playground.
Leonard: A gibbon doesn't care how he's classified. He doesn't even know he's called a gibbon.
Sheldon: That's true.
[to Howard]
Sheldon: Sorry, kid. You've got it worse than a gibbon.

- I know that at this age, your hormones are raging...
- But just because all your friends are having sex doesn't mean you have to.
- Why would you say that?
- You know, because a lot of people lose their virginity on prom night.
- Penny implied the same thing. Is this true?
- Just relax, it's a joke.
- You don't have hormones.

Sheldon: There's no denying that I have feelings for you that can't be explained in any other way. I briefly considered that I had a brain parasite, but that seems even more far-fetched. The only conclusion was love.

Sheldon: Pretending to be an alien is a valuable coping mechanism I've used many times. I did it the first time I went to see you in a play. You had no idea that Commander Umfrumf of Ceti Alpha 3 was in the audience. Oh, don't worry. He gave you seven thumbs up.
