Archie

If a woman don't have no experience, then she should stick to unskilled labor, like being a wife.

Edith: But that don't pay nothing.

Archie: But it ain't supposed to pay nothing, Edith. You're supposed to be satisfied with the, what do you call it, unseen rewards.

Edith: How would you like an unseen dinner?

Archie

DING-DONG, Edith, Ding-Dong!

Archie

Why don't you do what all the men do with their bright ideas? They drop them in the suggestion box.

Irene: Oh, good. Where is the suggestion box?

Archie: You know where the mens' toilet is?

Irene: Yeah.

Archie: There's three of 'em in there.

Archie

Archie

I'll probably live long enough to see them put a man on Mars.

Mike: What if they do that next year?

Archie: What I won't live long enough to see is a Meathead on a payroll.
