Classic TV Quotes: Seinfeld Season Two
Eric Hochberger at .Before Seinfeld was in the news for little more than calling Lady Gaga a jerk, he was the co-creator and star of one of the most critically-acclaimed and popular sitcoms. Now he calls out ridiculous pop stars. How the mighty have fallen.
But there's no need to forget Seinfeld for what made him famous. Ridiculous amounts of TBS reruns and TV Fanatic's collection of Seinfeld quotes should keep you more than busy laughing.
Without further ado, we present to your our favorite quotes from the sophomore season:
Marlene: I can't be with someone if I don't respect what they do.
Jerry: You're a cashier! | permalink
Jerry: A relationship is an organism. You created this thing and then you starved it, so it turned against you. Same thing happened to the Blob. | permalink
Jerry: I didn't know she had a pony. How was I to know she had a pony? Who figures an immigrant's going to have a pony? Do you know what the odds are on that? I mean, in all the pictures I saw of immigrants on boats coming into New York harbor, I never saw one of them sitting on a pony. Why would anybody come here if they had a pony? Who leaves a country packed with ponies to come to a non-pony country? It doesn't make sense.. am I wrong? | permalink
Jerry: I had a leather jacket that got ruined. Now, why does moisture ruin leather? I don't get this. Aren't cows outside most of the time? I don't understand it. When it's raining do cows go up to the farmhouse, "Let us in, we're all wearing leather. Open the door! We're gonna ruin the whole outfit here!" "Is it suede?" "I am suede, the whole thing is suede, I can't have this cleaned. It's all I got!" | permalink
