• George Bynum : [to Brooke, holding an Ancient Greek artifact]  Here's a man who lived 500 years before Christ, who probably didn't even know how to read and write, who never went more than a few miles beyond his village. And yet, he has made something that has outlived Caesar, has outlived Lorenzo De Medici, has outlived Napoleon. And if you don't drop it, it will outlive you and me.

• George Bynum : You know, the more I see of that new girl in the office, the more I think that she's definitely your type.

  Doctor Sam Rice : And what do you think that is?

  George Bynum : Stiff.

• George Bynum : What would you say if I told you that I'd been to bed with your girlfriend? You aren't curious? Anyway, night before last Brooke and I were working late. Everybody else had gone home. And, uh, I don't know why, I guess I just wanted to see what would happen, I reached out and put my hand on the back of her neck. She didn't make a move. She didn't say a word. And I kissed her. And then I started to unbutton her blouse. And I put my hand on her breast. And she didn't make a move to stop me.

• George Bynum : What if, uh, you found out that someone you knew had actually killed somebody and, uh, because her family's rich, um, nobody found out about it? Actually, I'm the only one who knows about it. Except for you. Anyway, uh, what I wanted to know is if somebody'd done something like that before, killed somebody, is it likely that, uh, they would do it again?
