TV show quotes
[Barney recalls hating Gary Blauman because he ate four of Barney's French fries at MacLaren's, one of which being...]
You don't take a man's accidental curly!
You take a man's wife before you take his accidental curly!
If you wanted curly fries so bad, why not just order them in the first place? [scoffed at by the guys]
Yeah, that's what you want? All curly fries?
Regular cut, with a few accidental curlies, that's what you want!
That's the dream!
He is right. That is the dream.
[Future Ted reflects on Gary Blauman coming back to the wedding after being told off by the gang]
You will be shocked, kids, when you discover how easy it is in life to part ways with people forever. That's why when you find someone you want to keep around, you do something about it.
[to Mother] So I guess... goodnight.
Goodnight. [shares long kiss with Ted] Unless, do you want to walk around some more? It's still early.
Sure.
[Walks off ahead, but sees Ted looking at her] What are you doing?
[pauses] Remembering this.
[smiles and offers hand] Come on. [they walk off]
[Robin calls Ted on letting Barney take credit for finding her locket, and thinks she should go to Chicago with Ted]
Stop, stop! You're saying this because you're scared! I am not your future. Barney is.
Shouldn't I be with a guy who finds me my locket? The guy who steals me the blue French horn? I mean look me in the eye and tell me why shouldn't I be with that guy?
Because I'm not that guy anymore.
Then why did you work so hard to find me my locket?
It was a wedding gift.
Ted stop it, okay? I've known you better than that. This is more than a wedding gift.
Maybe it started out that way. Maybe some part of me thought—
—that you still loved me.
Maybe, but the truth is…I don't love you like that anymore, and you don't love me. You love Barney, and if you think I would ever be part of screwing that up, then maybe you don't know me at all, Robin.
Oh, I can't shake it, I can't shake this feeling that nothing about me and Barney makes any sense!
But love doesn't make sense! I mean, you can't logic your way in or out of it. Love is totally nonsensical. But we have to keep doing it, or else we're lost, and love is dead, and humanity should just pack it in. Because love is the best thing we do. Look, I know that sounds cheesy, but it's just true. You love Barney, and he loves you. And that doesn't have to make sense…to make sense.
[Having failed to help Barney write his vows, Marshall and Lily go to the church for their own updated vows]
I vow to keep at least 80% of these vows.
That seems high.
And I vow to keep them updated as we go, because one set of vows can't cover a lifetime of growing and changing with you, of raising children with you. Falling more and more in love with you every day, Lily Aldrin, which is what I vow to do for the rest of my life.
[tears] Crap, I already broke my crying vow.
I'll forgive you. [kisses Lily]
