• Garfield : [scratching the arm rest of a chair he's sitting in]  Oh boy, am I bored.

  [sighs] 

  Garfield : I guess I miss Odie. It's hard to believe I could miss someone who stares and slobbers all the same time. Someone who has to turn around three times before lying down. Someone who drinks out of a toilet.

  [stops scratching] 

  Garfield : I remember when Odie and I were just puppy and kitten.

• Jon Arbuckle : What would you like for breakfast, Garfield?

  Garfield : Oh, a cup of coffee, Danish, morning paper.

  Jon Arbuckle : You got fleas or something?

  Garfield : [grabs Jon's face]  What we have here is a failure to communicate.

• Garfield : I'm bored. Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored, bored. I'm bored... that's it! I'm going down to the City Pound, and I'm gonna break Odie outta there! Look out, Pound, here comes Garfield!

• Garfield : [playing with the food]  No sweat, 'Sarge, I'll take that machine gun nest out with my trusty bazooka here!
