Quotes 

• Molly : Do you like cats?

  George : Yeah. I couldn't eat a whole one, though.

  [pause] 

  George : [to himself]  Who am I kidding? Of course I could!

• Annie : [seeing Mitchell arrested]  What's he done?

  George : How far back do you want to go?

• Mitchell : George, you may want a normal family life, but whether you like it or not, you're never gonna be a normal family man. You need someone who gets you. The real you.

  George : Oh, and Lucy gets you, does she? She accepts you for what you are?

  Mitchell : Maybe some day I'll tell her the truth.

  George : Then you're an idiot. Relationships have secrets. No one can know every square inch of somebody else's soul, but it doesn't mean they're doomed to fail.

  Mitchell : No, you're wrong. I had someone like that. Someone who knew everything about me.

  George : Yes, but that was forty years ago.

• George : Hey, are you okay?

  Mitchell : Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?

  George : Uh, well, I don't know. Maybe the storm troopers dragging you out of bed in the middle of the night.

• George : What is THAT?

  Annie : A baby. It's one of mine.

  George : How long have I been gone?

• George : [ticking off his old to-do list]  A job, a wife, and a house full of children.

  Annie : Well, you can still have all that, can't you?

  George : Other people get to do that. We're not other people any more.

• George : New George makes decisions. You know, speaks his mind, grabs life by the nuts, blurts things out...

  Annie : Well, I haven't noticed much blurting yet, New George.

  George : [chuckles]  Yeah, you're right. I'm doing it again.

• George : Did you steal this baby out of a supermarket trolly?

• George : However crap a prospect you think you may be, I am far, far crapper.

• George : You need to move, I need to move. Give me one valid reason why we shouldn't do it.

  Sam : Money.

  George : Two. Give me two valid reasons.

  Sam : We hardly know each other.

  George : No? Okay. My mother's maiden name is Harriet. My internet password is password1. I'm indifferent about all competitive sports. And I prefer lager to beer. I don't understand fishing-What is fishing?-I'm scared of cancer. I voice a bit of a critical objection to drive thru takeaways. And I lost my virginity on a canal boat in Tring.

  Sam : Favorite color?

  George : That would be gamboge. It's kind of orangey-brown.
