Quotes

Amy Farrah Fowler : Sheldon, when I was a little girl, I used to dream about my wedding. But, eventually, I stopped, because I thought that day would never come. And then I met you. From the first moment in that coffee shop, I knew that there was something special between us, even though I did work on a study that disproved love at first sight.
Sheldon Cooper : I loved that study the moment I read it. Ironic, huh?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Clearly, it was wrong. Because I felt something that day, and those feelings have only gotten stronger with time. I can't imagine loving you more than I do right now. But I felt that way yesterday and the day before yesterday and the day before that.
Sheldon Cooper : Is that growth linear or accelerating?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Accelerating.
Sheldon Cooper : Oh, maybe we could graph it out.
Leonard Hofstadter : Save something for the honeymoon.
Sheldon Cooper : Smart.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Sheldon, I don't know what the future holds, but I know that I've never been happier than I am in this moment marrying you.
Mark Hamill : [choking up] Well, that was unexpectedly beautiful. I might need a minute.

Amy Farrah Fowler : I-I think it's more like, uh, "Lord of the Rings", and you're the Fellowship. Uh, someone's got to go to Gondor, someone's got to go to Mordor, someone's got to hold off the demon of shadow and flame.
Leonard Hofstadter : You mean the Balrog?
Amy Farrah Fowler : I mean my mother.
Sheldon Cooper : That is a perfect metaphor, Amy.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Thank you.
Sheldon Cooper : Because it also involves a ring that binds me in servitude forever.
Amy Farrah Fowler : [to Penny, touched] Aw, he said "forever."
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : So, are you feeling okay? No wedding jitters?
Sheldon Cooper : No. There is nothing in the world that would stop me from marrying you tomorrow, even me from the future coming back to prevent the wedding and the subsequent birth of a child who will destroy humanity.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Because if you came from the future, that would mean you already went through with the wedding because you believe that time travel is on a closed loop.
Sheldon Cooper : I love you so damn much.
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : [seeing Mark Hamill] I thought Wil was marrying us.
Sheldon Cooper : Wolowitz got us an upgrade.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Another sci-fi guy with a beard. Seems lateral, but okay.
-
Sheldon Cooper : So if I make slightly asymmetric knots with sheets in four dimensions, then I can bootstrap the whole idea to a large asymmetry in eleven dimensions.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Well, maybe even at the initial moment of creation, the fundamental forces lacked symmetry.
Leonard Hofstadter : [entering] Everyone's waiting. What are you guys doing?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Super asymmetry.
Leonard Hofstadter : Super asymmetry? Is that a thing?
Sheldon Cooper : We're inventing it right now.
Leonard Hofstadter : Don't you think this can wait until...
[seeing the equations, he grabs a chair and sits down]
Leonard Hofstadter : Hold on. This is interesting.
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : Why do you keep tying and untying that bow tie?
Sheldon Cooper : I can't seem to get it even.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Well, I don't think it's supposed to be even. Sometimes a little asymmetry looks good. In the Renaissance, they called it "sprezzatura."
Sheldon Cooper : The Renaissance? Amy, you know I'm more of an Enlightenment person. At some point, we have to decide how we want to raise the children.
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : So, you're Sheldon's big brother.
George Cooper, Jr. : Uh, yeah. He got the brains. I got the bod. And the face and the hair.
Amy Farrah Fowler : I like your accent. Sheldon, did you used to sound like that? Can you still?
Sheldon Cooper : I can. I will not.
-
Sheldon Cooper : I'm so glad you made it, Missy. This is my fiancée, Amy. Amy, this is my sister. If I ever need a kidney, this is where you get it.
Amy Farrah Fowler : [hugging her] It's so nice to meet you.
Missy : Aw.
Amy Farrah Fowler : I've always wanted a sister.
Sheldon Cooper : Really? Why?
Missy : I love you too, Shelly.
Leonard Hofstadter : Really? Why?
-
Penny Hofstadter : [Walking in past everyone, exasperated] Oh my God!
Mrs. Fowler : [Entering behind her] There's mama's girl.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Hi, mom.
Mrs. Fowler : [hugging her] Oh! Oh, Larry, look at her! Can you believe our little lamb is finally getting married?
[before he can speak]
Mrs. Fowler : He can't believe it. And neither can I.
Amy Farrah Fowler : [they hug again] Hi, dad. How you doing?
[behind his wife's back, Mr. Fowler pantomimes hanging himself and stops quickly when she turns around]
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : Sheldon, you're awfully quiet. Are you okay?
Sheldon Cooper : Oh! Oh, I'm sorry. I was thinking about string theory. Catch me up. What'd I miss?
Mrs. Fowler : Are you seeing this, Larry? These are the people I'm gonna have to live with after you're dead.
-
Sheldon Cooper : There's something I need to tell you.
[seeing Amy in her wedding dress]
Sheldon Cooper : Wow! You look amazing! That's not what I need to tell you. But you do!
Amy Farrah Fowler : What's wrong?
Sheldon Cooper : Something incredible just happened. Remember when you were telling me about my bow tie and how a little asymmetry is good?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Yeah?
Sheldon Cooper : My equations have been trying to describe an imperfect world, and the only way to do that is to introduce imperfection into the underlying theory.
Amy Farrah Fowler : So, instead of supersymmetry, it would be super asymmetry?
Sheldon Cooper : [gasp] Super asymmetry. That's it!
[looking around for a moment]
Sheldon Cooper : Give me your lipstick.
Amy Farrah Fowler : What?
Sheldon Cooper : Just give it to me, you beautiful thing! We have work to do!
-
Leonard Hofstadter : According to Google, there are zero papers that mention super asymmetry. This is brand-new. No one's thought of it.
Penny Hofstadter : [entering] What are you lunatics doing?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Sheldon had a breakthrough.
Sheldon Cooper : Well, actually, Amy and I had a breakthrough.
Penny Hofstadter : [sarcastic] Oh, science? Shocking!
Leonard Hofstadter : You don't understand. This could be really big.
Sheldon Cooper : No, Penny's right. We have our whole lives to do science together.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Let's get married.
Penny Hofstadter : [Excited] Alright! It's go time! I am *PUMPED*!
-
Sheldon Cooper : Amy, you said something about my bow tie that I can't stop thinking about.
Amy Farrah Fowler : Don't you mean...
[trying to sound like a Texan]
Amy Farrah Fowler : "Y'all said something 'bout my bow tie." Go on, say it.
[urging him]
Amy Farrah Fowler : No. Say it.
-
Penny Hofstadter : All right, Saturday is the big day. A lot of people thought this would never come. I may have been one of those people.
Amy Farrah Fowler : I may have been one of those people.
Sheldon Cooper : Wait, wait. Are we talking about the wedding?
Amy Farrah Fowler : Yes.
Sheldon Cooper : Oh, yeah, I was definitely one of those people.
-
Amy Farrah Fowler : That was Wil Wheaton. He's really excited about tomorrow.
Sheldon Cooper : As am I. If you'd have told me as a child that an actor from "Star Trek" would be officiating my wedding, I would've said, "Ooh, William Shatner?" And, if you'd have said, "No, Wil Wheaton", I'd have said "Well, did you even try William Shatner?" And, if you'd have said, "Yes, but he costs too much money", I'd have said "Ah, well, Wil Wheaton's good, too."
