Curb Your Enthusiasm (season 5)
Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000-2024) is an American television sitcom on HBO starring Seinfeld writer & co-creator Larry David. The series is loosely based on David's life as a semi-retired multi-millionaire in the world after Seinfeld. It was inspired by a 1999 one-hour mockumentary titled Larry David: Curb Your Enthusiasm, which David and HBO had envisioned as a one-time project.

- Ted: That sounds awful.
- Larry: What are you talking about?

- Larry: See this thing? It's a mezuzah. Got that? And I need you to put it over the door here. This is like a Jewish thing, you know, we put it over the door so every anti-Semite in the neighborhood will know that we live here in case they want to burn down the house.

- [Larry looks down]
- Ben's daughter: Are you gonna jump?!
- Larry: What are you, fuckin' nuts?
- Larry: You got the huge vagina and you're blaming it on the small penis. You know, it's not really necessary.
- Larry: Oh hey, there was a Mickey Mantle ball, his 500th home run, right over there, and it's missing. Have you seen it?
- Nurse: No, I have not.
- Larry: Hm. It's kinda curious given that nobody has been in the house, save for a few friends. Can a ball worth an excess of $20,000 just disappear into thin air?
- Nurse: You want to tell me what you're driving at?
- Larry: I'll tell you what I'm driving at! I submit that you took that baseball, stashed it in your unusually large vagina, and walked right on out of here!

- Cheryl: What was the name of your band?
- Larry: The Hipsters..Larry David and The Hipsters. And then, I left The Hipsters and I just became Larry David.
- Larry: You know what? Nevermind, alright? I-I'll take my liver out! I'll walk around with a dialysis machine hanging out of me for the rest of my life, no problem!

- Larry: I'm sorry, Song, I'm sorry.
- Song: No, I see you on the-

- Larry: Wow, that may be true with others, I don't think with him though. He wouldn't even loan me a putter, actually.
- Nurse: You're giving him a kidney, he wouldn't loan you his putter?
- Larry: Well, people get very attached to their golf clubs. It's understandable.
- Nurse: You're not attached to your kidney? That's fucked up, man.
- Larry: I have a system..I..I have a..
