Laverne: I like bringin' my own... that way I know what I'm gettin'.

[After Lenny and Squiggy ask Laverne and Shirley out on a date]

Shirley: No, thank you. We're going to a formal society dinner.
Lenny: [Sarcastically] Whoa, pardon me ladies...
Squiggy: Yeah, I would've worn my tuxedo, but my polo pony ate it.

Laverne: A Society gentleman would only go out with you for one reason - to have a good time, a few laughs, and a little vo-dee-oh-doh-doh.
Shirley: I don't vo-dee-oh-doh-doh!
Laverne: You vo-dee-oh-doh-doh.
Shirley: I don't vo-dee-oh-doh-doh!
Laverne: You vo-dee-OH...
Shirley: Once, and I was going steady a whole year...

Shirley: It's different for you. You don't have a reputation to protect.
Squiggy: What are you talking about, Shirley? For the first time in my life, I got a reputation!

Laverne: It just doesn't seem fair. A guy with a reputation is a hero. A girl with a reputation is a bimbo It just doesn't seem fair.

Lenny: That's poor oral hygiene, Shirl. You're gonna wear them right down to the nub.

Squiggy: Go ahead and laugh. Just like they laughed at Columbus right before he discovered Ohio.

Laverne: Yeah we do! Yeah we do!

Laverne: Do you remember Alan Steckler??
Shirley: Please don't do this.
Laverne: Alan Steckler, a guy who chewed his socks? Do you know what it's like kissing a guy who chews his socks? It's like making out with a hamper.

Squiggy: [Crying] Hello!

The Road to Burbank [6.8][edit]


Lenny: Ahhhh, sleep. Nature's way of saying... lie down.

Laverne: Oh, Shirl, this is a dream come true. An entire night with Lenny in a dark, sleazy motel room.

Rhonda: I have to get ready for my dates.
Shirley: Dates?
Rhonda: You know, a man picks you up, spends money on you? You must have seen this on television…

Lenny: Well, Laverne Kosnowski. I guess tonight’s the night we finally constipate our marriage… in the biblical sense.

Hotel Manager: If you don’t pay up in one week… [snaps cob of corn in half]
Squiggy: You'll break our corn??

Lenny: You’ve seen Laverne peddling around this apartment in her Frederick’s of Hollywood negligence!

Squiggy: If that ain’t the whole truth… then may Edna’s coffee be poisoned!

Squiggy: Champagne? Why that’s the devil’s vodka!

Lenny: Hey girls - how about a little TV and Bosco before we retire?

Born Too Late [6.9][edit]


Lenny: I really wish we’d lived back when nobody talked. We’d never run out of things to say.

Edna: [Referring to ribs] Just the way the customers like them… lean and greasy.
Squiggy: Hello!

Shirley: You mean to tell me that the ball in a ball game is made from a pony?!?

Shirley: I'll go to this ball game... but I'll be rooting for the ball!

Squiggy: Of course, a silent movie! That’s why we’s never heard of them!

Lenny: Here. Sorry I broke your lettuce.
