Denis Leary: Can I give you some advice?
Marge: Of course! You're Denis Leary.

Denis Leary: I should be a lot of things, lady.

Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words
Lisa: BART. San Francisco People Mover!

Lisa: Probably. But a cruciverbalist is a fan of crossword puzzles. Which I am!
Grampa: Me too. I've been doing them since 1958. Back then we called them "alphabet hotels" because every letter gets its own little room.
Lisa: Grampa, everyone knows that the only real test of skill is the New York Times puzzle, edited by Will Shortz.
Grampa: Will and shorts. Two things I'm no longer allowed to change by myself.

Homer: Oh. I can't believe that until I see a fictional TV program espousing your point of view.
Marge: Homer that's very nice of you having Bart's Muslim friend's Muslim family over.
Homer: Here's the plan. You keep them drunk. I'll be listening. And quietly judging.
Marge: You're teaching Bart a terrible lesson of intolerance!

Homer: But we're the more powerful country for a few more years!

Take My Life, Please
Lisa: Dad, just because you won a high school election doesn't mean your whole life would've been better.
Homer: That's exactly what it means! And Dondelinger took that life away from me. And the taking of a life is murder. And the punishment for murder is— well it varies from state to state and by race.

Mrs. Skinner: I've been cleaved!
Chalmers: Lisa, like Captain Kirk I'm not supposed to interfere. But like TJ Hooker I say what is on my mind. If you don't know the answer just guess.
Skinner: Time to do what I've never done as principal. Something!
Groundskeeper Willie: Skinner! Otto! Bullies! The cowabunga kid. And the wee nit wit. It's so good to see you all.

Lisa: Mr. Burns! What are you doing here?
Mr. Burns: Oh I've known about the gem for years. You see, dear girl, I joined the Freemasons before it was trendy. That's my eyeball on the dollar bill. That's also my pyramid.
Marge: Sorry, but I know God would never ask a mother to sacrifice her child for the good of the world. pause Again.

Pilot: Welcome to Ireland. Also known as the Emerald Isle, Potatoville. East Boston. Freckle Bog, the Land of Poetry and the Land of Bad Poetry.

Lisa: I'm sorry Dad, these girls are nice on the surface but it's hard work staying this shallow. I hope you understand.
