This isn't one of my sermons. I expect you to listen.

No wonder they execute people at dawn. Who wants to live at six A.M.?

I thought this stuff was supposed to make you feel good.

No; it's supposed to make you feel nothing.

I'm not so think as you drunk I am...

Please excuse these two, they're themselves today.

ANY TAKERS?

"How do you spell that, 'Honkey'?'

"Uh, 'Y,T'!"

" 'Y,T'?"

"Yeah! Say it again!"

"Y,T, Y,T'..."

"Whitey!"

"You said that two of them held you, and one of them beat you. What about the fourth man?"

"That's the one that yelled 'Get him.'"

"Watch it, sucka."

"The fungus is among us!"

"You can say that again!"

"Who you calling ugly, sucka?"

"I'm calling you ugly, I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies."[/b]

"Come on and hear, come on and hear, Alexander's Ragtime Band!"

"I want my Daddy's records."

"Come on-eat a table, run through a tree, do something!"

"The wrath of God will strike you down!"

"This Louisville Slugger will knock you out!"

"You fish-eyed heathen!"

Here's how some of the quotes went....

"How do you spell that, 'Honkey'?'

"Uh, 'Y,T'!"

" 'Y,T'?"

"Yeah! Say it again!"

"Y,T, Y,T'..."

"Whitey!"

Fred giving a police report to Officer Swanson, "Swanny", who was Caucasian, and

extremely straight-lace and un-hip.

"You said that two of them held you, and one of them beat you. What about the fourth man?"

"That's the one that yelled 'Get him.'"

Fred claimed Lamont's fragile new collection was STOLEN rather than admit he broke it.

So, he invented an entire police report to give them.

Swanny was getting all the details down.

"Watch it, sucka."

Aunt Esther said this a LOT.

"The fungus is among us!"

"You can say that again!"

From the episode Fred tried to do a tax scam by declaring his house/business a church,

but discovered the overseeing body was a scam....

"Who you calling ugly, sucka?"

"I'm calling you ugly. I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies."

Fred and Aunt Esther.

(IRL, Redd Foxx and LaWanda Page were good friends, and he recommended her for

this part.)

"Come on and hear, come on and hear, Alexander's Ragtime Band!"

When Fred tried to break the world's record for staying awake, Bubba was one of his helpers.

Bubba would sing to jostle him. Bubba only knew one song. So he kept singing this line

all through the episode.

"I want my Daddy's records."

Fred donated some vinyl records to a library, then discovered they were collectibles,

especially some "Blind Mellow Jelly" records.

Bubba posed as one performer's son, and they tried to scam the library into

handing them over. Bubba's only line was this one.

"Come on-eat a table, run through a tree, do something!"

Grady met a martial arts black belt, and the guy just stood there, so Grady wanted to

see some parlor trick. (Some of what the guy said made sense, but when he showed

what a martial artist would do in a fight, he stopped for several seconds to warm up,

which is just ridiculous.)

"The wrath of God will strike you down!"

"This Louisville Slugger will knock you out!"

My favourite exchange between Aunt Esther and Fred G. Sanford.

"You fish-eyed heathen!"

Yes, Aunt Esther had several things she'd call Fred-this was the most common.

"Fish-eyed fool" was another.

========

Redd Foxx was a stage-name for an actor- his birth-name was Fred Sanford Junior.

He was nicknamed "Little Red" once for his hair.

The actor had an unusual death. He had a heart attack in front of friends.

They were so used to him faking heart attacks it took several seconds to realize

he was having a real heart attack.

Go, George!

"You know, here's a discussion: Why is it that we remember the past and not the future? "

"That's a tough one, Larry."

"Look, it's my first date in over thirty-five years; I would like memorable instead of low-key."

"Low-key and memorable aren't mutually exclusive. You know what my favorite date ever was? Pepperoni pizza at a laundromat."

"Yes, which explains the conspicuous absence of grandchildren. So, Wednesday, 7:30. Bring a date?"

"So what does all your behavioral science training tell you about a grown man who still lives with his mother?"

"Probably about the same as two brothers still mooching meals at their dad's house three nights a week."

"You know that it's considered unsolvable?"

"Well, certainly people who have failed to solve it might think that."

"What are you doing here?"

"Hey. Well, I'm ready to party like it's 1899."

If you've seen the show, this should giv it away.

"I guess I was inspired by Mr. Heisenberg, just like Charlie here suggested."

"Heisenberg? What do you mean, the physicist?"

"Yeah."

"Oh. Your brother goes into a dangerous confrontation with heavily armed felons, and you prepare him with a lecture on the movement of subatomic particles?"

"Yep. It worked, didn't it?"

"You know that it's considered unsolvable?"

"Well, certainly people who have failed to solve it might think that."

Allrighty, then....

Maybe this will be clearer.

"Everything is numbers ."

"I guess I was inspired by Mr. Heisenberg, just like Charlie here suggested."

"Heisenberg? What do you mean, the physicist?"

"Yeah."

"Oh. Your brother goes into a dangerous confrontation with heavily armed felons, and you prepare him with a lecture on the movement of subatomic particles?"

I'll give it another shot...

"I thought Alex had better taste in men than to go out with you."

"Well, obviously, she doesn't."

"Helen, you're the symphony; I'm a tractor pull. You're the ballet; I'm ...another tractor pull."

"This is the dumbest thing Brian's ever done, and he once painted me blue."

"If you'll excuse me, I've got to get ready for the big night."

"Oh, that's right, you're about to romance a woman. You'll want to shower, shave, buy chloroform..."

"This song I learned in Italy. For awhile it was the only English I knew... My goat knows the bowling score, halleluiah..."

"It's 'Michael, row the boat ashore'."

"No!"

"I thought Alex had better taste in men than to go out with you."
