Quotes12

  • Kirby: It's true love, my friend.
  • Kevin: Love, love, you know what love is? Love is an illusion created by lawyer types like yourself to perpetuate another illusion called marriage to create the reality of divorce and then the illusionary need for divorce lawyers.
  • Kirby: She is the only evidence of God I have seen with the exception of the mysterious force that removes one sock from the dryer every time I do my laundry.
  • Kirby: I always thought we'd be friends forever.
  • Kevin: Yeah, well forever got a lot shorter all of a sudden.
  • Dale: Kirby! How are you?
  • Kirby: I'm obsessed thank you very much.
  • Kirby: There are several quintessential moments in a man's life: losing his virginity, getting married, becoming a father, and having the right girl smile at you.
  • Kirby: [Handing a blowtorch to Alec after Alec has dangled Kevin off the fire escape] Here you go!
  • Kevin: Do NOT give that man a blow torch!
  • Kirby: You are just pissed off and bitter because you have not had sex in... how long? What is it... a year... maybe two? Refresh my memory please, Kevin. Haven't you heard of the sexual revolution?
  • Kevin: Who won, huh? Nobody. Used to be sex was the only free thing, No longer. Alimony... palimony... it's all financial. Love is an illusion.
  • Kirby: It's the only illusion that counts, my friend.
  • Kevin: Says who?
  • Kirby: Anyone who's been in love.
  • Kevin: Love sucks.
  • Kirby: So does your attitude.
  • Kirby: I understand the fold, but what's fluff?
  • Kevin: Fluff's what I write for the paper.
  • Kirby: Why do they put ice in the urinals?
  • Kevin: It tastes better
  • Kirby: Bah Dum bum ching.
  • Kirby: Fluff and fold, buddy. Soon as I make it really big, I'm going fluff and fold.
  • Jules: You could order a nice Napa Valley chardonnay. Or if she's worth it, get an import to impress her.
  • Kirby Keger: Well, money's no object.
  • Jules: Really? Then Montrachet or Meursault. And make sure you smell the cork.
  • Alec Newbary: I wanna meet the woman who's turning Kirbo Keager into a doctor.
  • Kirby Keger: Hey, I've been an amateur gynecologist for years.
