Quotes 

  • Homer : Lisa, why didn't you warn me? Being a brain has alienated me from all my friends.

    Lisa : Dad, as intelligence goes up, happiness often goes down. In fact I made a graph...

    [wistfully] 

    Lisa : I make a lot of graphs...

  • Moe Szyslak : All right, tell me when I hit the sweet spot.

    Homer : Deeper, you pusillanimous pilsner pusher!

    Moe Szyslak : All right, all right!

    [he hammers the crayon further up Homer's nose] 

    Homer : De-Fense! Woof! Woof! De-Fense! Woof! Woof!

    Moe Szyslak : Eh, that's pretty dumb. But, uh...

    [hammers the crayon up more] 

    Homer : Extended warranty? How can I lose?

    Moe Szyslak : Perfect.

  • [Lisa is missing a crayon; Homer had a crayon removed from his brain making him smarter] 

    Marge : [reassuringly]  Sweetheart, the missing crayon could be anywhere.

    Homer : [crashes through living room window and holds up two fistfuls of tickets]  Who wants lottery tickets?

    Marge : [resigned]  Okay, it's in his brain.

    [leaves] 

  • [removal of the crayon in Homer's brain will either increase his brain power, or possibly kill him] 

    Homer : Increase my killing power, eh?

  • [at a Julia Roberts movie parody] 

    Homer : That wasn't funny.

    Patty Bouvier : Wait a minute! Somebody's not laughing! It's him!

    Homer : Hey, don't blame me! This movie is tired and predictable! You know she's gonna wind up marrying Richard Gere!

    [all gasp] 

    Dr. Hibbert : I thought she'd wind up with that rich snob.

    Sea Captain : Ably played by Bill Paxton.

    Homer : It's Bill Pullman, you fool!

    [gets thrown out] 

    Movie Usher : Go point out your plot holes elsewhere!

  • Lisa Simpson : [learning Homer re-inserted a crayon into his brain]  Dad, how could you? We were connecting in such a meaningful way.

    Homer Simpson : We were what what in the what what?

  • Homer : I'm a Spalding Gray in a Rick Dees world.

  • Scientist #1 : [re: the crayon in Homer's brain]  Mr. Simpson, this could be responsible for your... sub-normal intelligence.

    Homer Simpson : Hey! I came here to be drugged, electrocuted, and probed, not insulted.

  • Homer : I have a great way to settle our money woes. You rent your womb to a rich, childless couple. If you agree, signify by getting indignant.

    Marge : [indignantly]  Are you crazy? I'm not going to be a surrogate mother.

    Homer : Come on, Marge. We're a team. It's uter-US, not uter-YOU.

  • Marge : Oh, Homer, where have you been?

    Homer : I just underwent a procedure to increase my IQ 50 points.

    Marge : Really?

    Homer : And they gave me this spiffy nerd ensemble, too.

    Marge : Do you feel smarter?

    Homer : Is the capital of North Dakota Bismarck?

    Lisa : [the family all looks to her]  It is.

    Bart Simpson : I don't believe it. Say something else smart.

    Homer : Dr. Joyce Brothers may be well-known, but her psychological credentials are highly suspect.

    Lisa : [the family all looks to her again]  It's true!

    Homer : Now, who's up for a trip to the library tomorrow? Notice I no longer say "liberry" or "tomorry".

  • Scientist #2 : First, we'll test this experimental perfume on you.

    Homer : [screaming]  It burns! It burns!

    Scientist #2 : Hmm...

    [to her colleagues] 

    Scientist #2 : We'll call it "Desert Breeze".

  • Lisa : Dad, did you read all these books today?

    Homer : Everything from "Hop on Pop" to "Death Be Not Proud".

    [sadly] 

    Homer : It's so tragic the way they hopped on Pop.

  • Homer : Animation is so great. It's way better than... whatever the alternative is.

  • [pointing at his chest] 

    Homer : There's a crayon in my brain?

  • Homer : Family meeting. Family meeting.

    [the rest of the family runs into the dining room and quickly takes their seats] 

    Homer : Okay, people, let's keep this short. We all want to get home to our families.

    [all laugh] 

    Homer : All right, first item: I lost our life savings in the stock market. Now, let's move on to the real issue: Lisa's hogging of the maple syrup.

    Lisa : Well, maybe if Mom didn't make such dry waffles. There, I said it.

    Marge : Well, maybe if you ate some meat, you'd have a natural lubricant.

    [gasps and turns to Homer] 

    Marge : You lost all our money?

    Homer : Point of order - I didn't lose ALL the money. There was enough left for this cowbell.

    [rings it softly and the bell breaks apart in his hands] 

    Homer : Damn you, eBay!

  • Quoter : [on phone]  For automated stock prices, please state the company name.

    Homer : Animotion.

    Quoter : Animotion, up one and a half.

    Homer : Yahoo!

    Quoter : Yahoo!, up six and a half.

    Homer : Huh? What is this crap?

    Quoter : Fox Broadcasting, down eight.

  • Homer : Hey, Flanders, heading for church? Well, I thought I could save you a little time.

    Ned : Ooh, found a new shortcut?

    Homer : Better. I was working on a flat tax proposal, and I accidentally proved there's no God.

    Ned : We'll just see about that.

    [giving it a once-over] 

    Ned : Uh-oh. Well, maybe he made a mistake. Nope, it's airtight. Can't let this little doozy get out.

    [as he burns it, he sees Homer putting similar flyers on car windshields] 

  • Scientist #1 : That appetite suppressant is amazing.

    Scientist #2 : Homer, you really have no desire to eat that food?

    Homer : Food? I'm blind!

    [he starts screaming] 

    Scientist #1 : Who's gonna buy a pill that makes you blind?

    Scientist #2 : We'll let marketing worry about that.

  • Homer : [his friends are burning him in effigy]  So, you all hate me?

    Lenny : That's right, brainiac. You cost us our jobs, which we need for working.

    Carl : Not to mention driving to.

    Moe Szyslak : And I was a lot happier before I knew Dame Edna was a man. A *lot* happier.

    Lenny : You ain't welcome here no more, smart boy.

    Homer : Hmm. I'm detecting a distinct strain of anti-intellectualism in this tavern...

    [a wood plank hits him on the back of the head] 

    Homer : Ahh!

    Moe Szyslak : Power off, Einstein.

  • Homer : Effigy, eh? Yeah, nothing burns like an effigy.

    [seeing it looks like him] 

    Homer : Hey, that's me! Stop that. The fire inspector would be apalled.

    Inspector : Don't tell me how to feel.

  • Homer : I'd like to withdraw my life savings, please. And hurry!

    Teller : Uh, sir, this is a joint account. Uh, you'll need your wife's signature, too.

    Homer : Oh! Yes, of course. Uh, she's behind that plant. Hello, Marge.

    [going behind the plant and imitating Marge] 

    Homer : Hi, Homie.

    [switching back and forth] 

    Homer : Sign this, please. "You're the boss."

    [imitating Lisa] 

    Homer : Daddy, ask the man for some candy.

    Homer : No, no. No candy for you. "Well, at least get some candy for yourself."

    [to the teller with a chuckle] 

    Homer : Kids.

    Teller : [sighing]  Here's your candy.

    Homer : [running away]  So, long, sucker!

    Teller : Uh, sir, your life savings.

    Homer : Uh, yes, I see that it's in bill form. Excellent.

  • Kent Brockman : Turning to the stock market, Animotion is up an eighth...

    Homer : Yes!

    Kent Brockman : ...after plunging 75 points this morning.

    Homer : [worried]  Oh, I hope "plunging" means up and 75 means 200.

    Kent Brockman : The firm declared super-duper bankruptcy, which is terrible news for the company's only stockholder, Homer Simpson.

    Homer : [groaning]  Ohhh!

  • Mr. Burns : It seems the federales have been tipped off by an anonymous whistleblower.

    Homer : [to himself]  Mm-hmm.

    Mr. Burns : Now, while the plant is brought up to code, there will be massive layoffs. That is to say, total layoffs. Toodles!

    Lenny : Way to put us out of work, genius.

    Carl : I can't feed my family with a codpiece.

    Homer : Wait, you can't hate me. I'm your better. Your better!

  • Scientist #1 : [watching one of Homer's test experiments]  Where did that rat come from?

    Scientist #2 : He must have brought it in with him.

    Homer : Hmm...

    [the rat beats him to a buzzer that lights up] 

    Homer : Damn it!

    Scientist #1 : Man, is he dumb. Where do they get these subjects?

    Scientist #2 : He's a little too well-fed to be a wino.

    [spotting something on Homer's x-ray] 

    Scientist #2 : Hey, what's that?

  • Homer : [at a school assembly]  I am here to give hope to the least of you, because we all have a crayon up our nose. Maybe it's not a crayon made of wax. Maybe it's a crayon made of prejudice.

    Nelson Muntz : Question.

    Homer : Yes, Nelson.

    Nelson Muntz : [quietly]  A moron says what?

    Homer : Not being a moron, I wouldn't know. However...

    [he mumbles unintelligbly] 

    Nelson Muntz : What?

    Homer : Ladies and gentlemen, I give you your moron.

  • Homer : [learning of the crayon in his brain]  I've had thousands of head x-rays. How come no one ever noticed it before?

    Dr. Hibbert : Oh, I can answer that. You see, whenever, I pick up an x-ray, I always hold it like this. My thumb must have covered up the crayon every time.

    [chortling] 

    Dr. Hibbert : I'll show myself out.

    Scientist #2 : Do you have any idea how this might have happened?

    Homer : Well, I'm not sure, but it might have happened when I was six.

    [flashback to six-year-old Homer putting crayons up his nose] 

    Homer : Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen! Who-hoo!

    [feeling woozy] 

    Homer : Oh, I don't feel so good.

    [as he sneezes, the crayons come out of his nose] 

    Homer : Uh, I think that's all of 'em.

  • Lenny : Whatcha mailing, Homer?

    Homer Simpson : I've compiled a thorough safety report on this plant.

    Carl : How come you're not giving it to Mr. Burns?

    Homer Simpson : I've decided to disintermediate the local authorities and send it straight to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

    Lenny : Yeah, and just in time. Every day, there's more skin on my pillow.

    Carl : Yeah, it's nice to have someone with brains in this nuclear plant. Homer's the guy who rigged up my pants with this special codpiece.

    Homer Simpson : Comfy, isn't it?

    Carl : Oh, yeah. It provides the freedom and protection I so sorely need.

  • Homer : I'd like to buy 500 shares of Animotion Incorporated.

    Teller : Okay. Uh, now before I execute this order, are you sure you understand the risks of stock ownership?

    Homer : Absolutely.

    [in his mind, he line-dances to "We're in the Money"] 

    Homer : You heard the monkey. Make the trade.

  • Barney : You know, Homer, I got a great way to make money. I'm a human guinea pig.

    Homer : You mean, like, medical testing?

    Barney : Yeah. Medical, military, chewing stuff.

    Moe Szyslak : Chewing stuff?

    Barney : Yeah. Like, you chew on a telephone wire 'til you get a shock.

    Moe Szyslak : Oh, oh, right. Okay.

    Homer : Yeah, but aren't those experiments dangerous?

    Barney : [opening his shirt to reveal extra ears on his chest]  Ah, you get a few side effects.

    Moe Szyslak : Are those ears?

    Barney : [closing his shirt again]  Ow! Not so loud!

  • Homer : Change me back to the blissful boob I was.

    Scientist #1 : I'm sorry, we don't play God here.

    Homer : That's ridiculous. You do nothing but play God. And I think your octoparrot would agree.

    Polly : [squawking]  Polly shouldn't be.

  • Homer : [in bed with his stock certificate]  Sleep tight, my beloved. You're my ticket out of this hellhole.

    Marge : Homer!

    Homer : Sorry. *Our* ticket out of this hellhole.
