Quotes11

  • George Costanza: I don't get these birds; they're breakin' the deal! It's like the pigeons decided to ignore me.
  • Jerry Seinfeld: So they're like everyone else.
  • Elaine Benes: I was sittin' there, making Cup-a-Soup, singing that song from The Lion King.
  • Jerry Seinfeld: "Hakuna Matata"?
  • Elaine Benes: [ashamedly] I thought I was alone.
  • Jerry Seinfeld: That doesn't make it right.
  • George Costanza: Miranda thinks I'm a butcher, but - it's not my fault, is it? Don't we have a deal with the pigeons?
  • Jerry Seinfeld: Of course we have a deal: They get out of the way of our cars; we look the other way on the statue defecations.
  • Jerry Seinfeld: See, to me, the "Hakuna Matata" is not nearly as embarrassing as the Cup-a-Soup.
  • Elaine Benes: Would you just... let it go?
  • Jerry Seinfeld: Tic Tacs worked?
  • Elaine Benes: He's a human maraca.
  • Cosmo Kramer: Jerry, this is the set from the old Merv Griffin show. They must be throwing it out. This stuff belongs in the Smithsonian.

  • Newman: Are you married right now?
  • [Kramer slaps Newman]
  • Jerry Seinfeld: Actually she doesn't even know about the toys. I gave her the wrong kind of medicine and I guess she passed out.

  • Jerry Seinfeld: [to George] She's even got that old Mattel football game that we love.
  • George Costanza: Ah come on! You got to get me over there!
