Quotes 

  • Barry : Vincent Van Gogh. Everyone said to him, "You can't be a great painter, you only have one ear." And you know what he said? "I can't hear you."

  • Barry : In the words of John Lennon, "you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not."

    Tim : ...the only one.

    Barry : The only what?

    Tim : No, that's the lyric: "You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."

    Barry : Oh, OK Tim.

  • Barry : So dare to dream. Dream your wildest dreams. You can climb the highest mountain. You can drown in a teacup, if you find a big enough teacup. And if somebody tells you that you can't do something, you say, 'Yes, I can. 'Cause I'm doing it right now!'

  • Barry : [Whilst holding a picture of Nelson Mandela]  He's friends with Morgan Freeman!

  • Darla : [seductively]  I'm a naughty little schoolgirl...

    Barry : You look a little old to be a schoolgirl.

    Darla : I need to be punished. I cheated in class. Don't you want to be my school teacher?

    Barry : I'm really not qualified I work for the IRS.

    Darla : [winks]  Not tonight...

    Barry : No, all the time. I work...

    Darla : Ok, ok! You work for the IRS and I have been very, very bad. I haven't paid my taxes and I need to be spanked, NOW!

    Barry : Well, that's really not the way it works, you probably just have to pay the difference, plus interest...

  • Barry : When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Unless you don't have any water or sugar. And then you just eat the lemons, and the rind will give you diarrhea.

  • Barry : Well, these people invited us here to make fun of us. This is a contest for the biggest idiot...

    [holding up trophy] 

    Barry : which I nailed!

  • Barry : Well, I try to look at the bright side. I guess you could say I'm an eternal optometrist.

  • Therman : Now tell us, Barry, why did your wife leave? Spit it out of your mouth. Say it. Say it, boy.

    Barry : I lost her clitoris!

    Robin : You lost her clitoris?

    Barry : She got mad because I couldn't find it, and I said 'It's probably in your purse,' because nine times out of 10 when she loses something, that's where they end up.

    Robin : Barry, do you even know what that is?

    Barry : I don't know what half the stuff in her purse is.

    Therman : Don't worry Barry. I found it. It was in her purse. It was in her naughty purse.

    Robin : Wow. Well thank God somebody found it, right?

    Barry : I thought I found it under the couch. Turns out it was just an old piece of chewing gum.

  • Tim : [yelling in pain]  My back! My back! My back!

    Barry : Is it your back?

  • Barry : OK, may I give you some advice too? Do not wear fishnets on New Year's Eve. It's too cold. When the wind blows, you gotta go with the hose.

  • Barry : SWITZERLAND. I LOVE SWITZERLAND. And your cheese, Does the cheese come out of the cow with the holes?

  • Barry : I know everything! I have laid eggs... *inside of your brain*!

    Therman : Get them out of my head!

    Barry : You are no longer in control of me! I control you,and you are under my power!

    [whispering] 

    Barry : I know everything. And I release you!

  • Barry : [having just been struck by his car]  Is that a Porsche?

    Tim : Yeah.

    Barry : [taking a picture]  I have been hit by a Datsun before. Never a Porsche.

  • Barry : He slept with Martha at my house! I was under the bed the whole time. What an idiot!

  • Darla : I'm a naughty schoolgirl!

    Barry : You look a little old to be a schoolgirl.

  • Kieran : Have you ever just spent five months living with a herd of goats, as one of them?

    Barry : No.

    Kieran : No? That surprises me. The thing about a goat is, it never denies itself what it's hungry for.

    Barry : A goat will eat anything. A goat could probably eat a bike.

    Kieran : A goat could eat itself, if it was driven to it. I'm just a goat... who's halfway through eating itself.

    Barry : Just to be clear, what exactly are we talking about?

    Kieran : Everything.

  • Tim : Julie.

    Müeller : I thought this was Julie.

    Julie : Nope. I'm Julie.

    Barry : They are both Julie. Julie and Julie.

    Julie : Susana thought you were gonna lose your promotion if I didn't show up today. Look at your. You had a replacement all lined up.

    Darla : Yeah.

    Tim : No, no, no. This is a huge misunderstanding.

    Barry : Let me explain. This is Darla. She's a naughty schoolgirl who cheats on her taxes. I didn't know whether you were gonna come today, so I brought Darla to keep things running smoothly. Very important potential client.

    Julie : That clears that up. Yeah. Thank you.

    Darla : Darling, you're embarrassing yourself.

    [pulls up engagement ring] 

    Darla : It's over.

    Julie : She's really quite a catch, Tim. Congratulations.

    Tim : No! Julie...

    Julie : [shakes hands]  Nice to have met you. He's very crafty.

  • Barry : I'm gonna fix your back.

    Tim : [in pain]  Barry, stop!

    Barry : I am a trained taxidermist.

    Tim : And I am alive!
