• Lamont Sanford : [Trying to convince Fred of his stubbornness]  When's the last time you gave in to somebody?

  Fred G. Sanford : You. You see, Lamont is French for "big mistake."

• Lamont Sanford : [to Fred after he's insulted their Chinese neighbor Ah Chew]  What's the matter with you? Ah Chew is our neighbor. Well, you know what it says in the Bible: "Love thy neighbour."

  Fred G. Sanford : Well, the guy who wrote the Bible didn't live in this neighborhood. If he had, he'd have said, "Love thy neighbour, but locketh thy windows."
