The Cosby Show quotes

Cliff

[after Denise and Clair tell Theo what the real world is like] Your mother and your sister are absolutely correct. You see, we´re your family. We love you. We let you borrow money even you´re not qualified to pay it back. If you get out in the real world, it´s going to be different.

Theo

But when I get in the real world, I´m doing just fine, ´cause I´m gonna have a lot of money.

Cliff

I hope you´re not waiting for me to die.

Theo

No, I´m gonna earn it.

Cliff

How?

Theo

I´m going to be a model.

Rudy

[seriously talks about Theo´s debt to her] I want my quarter now!

Theo

Dad, can I have an advance on my allowance?

Cliff

I'm sorry son, you're already backed up to your 50th birthday.

Clair

[as Amanda] Welcome to Amanda's Furniture City! Where money talks and nobody walks. If you like it you touch it, if you break it you buy it. If you don't see it we don't have it but we will get it. Now what can I do for you?

Clair

You are in luck! Because here at Furniture City, we accept all major credit cards.

Theo

I don't have any of those.

You are in luck! Because here at Furniture City, we accept personal checks.

Theo

I don't have any personal checks.

Then you are about to leave Furniture City!

Theo

Mom!

Cockroach

That's Amanda!

Theo

Cockroach!

Cockroach

That's Mr. Dansbury to you!

Denise

[as Ms. Firestone] Do you have any experience?

Theo

No, but I look good!

My father said no matter how dumb the dealer looks, always cut the cards.

You know, Russell, this reminds of the days when we used to go down to the baseball diamond.

Russell

Yeah, I remember those days..but, sometimes it would rain and we'd have to stay in the clubhouse.

You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna lead with clubs!

Russell

Good play!

You had the Ace?

Russell

Dr. Foster, if you'll throw your card, I can collect this trick!

That may be difficult to do, Mr. Huxtable Senior...since you threw your Ace in my face, I may have to bump your rump with my trump!

Clair

Cliff, do you want to be 19 again?

Cliff

Only if you'll be 19 with me.

Clair

Sure.

Cliff

And the kids can be 49.

Cliff

Only if you'll be 19 with me.

Clair

Sure.

Cliff

Cliff

Yes, the University of Life. I understand some of its graduates have gone on to move back home with their parents!

Denise

I don't know, Grandpa. Hillman is so far away from home.

Russell

I know, but after you've been there awhile, it IS home.
