Murray Burns: If things aren't funny then they're exactly what they are; and then they're like a long dental appointment.
Nick: My simple child reaction of what you did is that you are not funny. Funnier than you is even Stuart Schlossmen, who is my friend, and is eleven, and puts walnuts in his mouth and makes noises. What is not funny is to call us names, and what is mostly not funny is how sad you are, and I'd feel sorry for you if it wasn't for how dull you are. And those are the worst-tasting potato chips that I've ever tasted. And that's my opinion from the blue, blue sky.
Nick: I can imitate the voice of Alexander Hamilton. I do Alexander Hamilton, and Murray does a terrific Thomas Jefferson. We got the voices just right. Speaking in normal tones: (Robards Jr.,Jason@Murray)to Nick: Hi, Alex, how're you doing?
Nick: Fine. Say, Tom, you should have been in Congress today.
Leo: This is ridiculous! You can't do an imitation of Alexander Hamilton, nobody knows what he sounds like.
Nick: That's the funny part.
Murray Burns: You missed the funny part, Leo.
Albert Amundson: You are not a person, Mr. Burns. You are an experience!
Murray Burns: Yes. I'll have a hamburger. And a flashlight.
Leo: There's the little guy. I've got a Chuckles statue for you.
Nick: Thank you, Mr. Herman, imagine how pleased I am to receive it.
Murray Burns: Better go to your room.
Nick: This is a one room apartment.
Murray Burns: OK, then go to your alcove.
