Children grow up, they move out! Sometimes to ridiculous places like Cincinnati, or Boise, Idaho! Then you never see them again!
Chorus Leader:
You'd think they'd at least pick up a phone!
Laius:
But is there a growing void in the Weinrib marriage?
Chorus:
We didn't say there was! We're all just speculating on possible motives! Children are serious stuff!
Greek Chorus Leader:
Don't go any further. I know what you're thinking, Lenny, and forget it!
Lenny:
I can't forget it; the thought's been put in my head.
Chorus:
Oh, cursed fate; certain thoughts are better left unthunk.
Lenny Weinrib:
Achilles only had an Achilles heel, I have an entire Achilles body.

Of all human weaknesses, obsession is the most dangerous, and the silliest!

Linda:
The bishop keeps fucking her in the ass. It's a genuine antique and it keeps perfect time.
Linda:
I feel like I owe you a great fuck.
Linda:
You didn't want a blowjob so the least I could do is get you a tie.
Linda:
Okay, so I had one guy fucking me from behind and two guys dressed as cops in my mouth and all I could think was, "I like acting. I wanna study."
Kevin:
I've had 16 fights and I won all of them but 12.
Chorus:
[referring to Oedipus] Look, here's a man who killed his father and slept with his mother.

[(Oedipus' mother)] I hate to tell you what they call my son in Harlem.

Adopt, what. I don't want to adopt. Not with my genes. I have award winning genes.
Max:
Who is the boss between you and mommy?

Lenny:
Oh, no I've already bathed.

It makes my stomach sick to my stomach.

I see disaster. I see catastrophe. Worse, I see lawyers!
Lenny Weinrib:
This guy's gonna put me in 27 separate Mason jars!
Greek Chorus Leader:
Curiosity, that's what kills us. Not muggers or all that bullshit about the ozone layer. It's our own hearts and minds.
Greek Chorus Leader:
The handicapped are always cranky.
Lenny:
You didn't see Schindler's List?
Kevin:
No, no... that was the one with the Jews and the, um... who were the bad guys?
Lenny:
The Nazis. The blond guys were the Nazis.
Lenny:
I'm completely superfluous.
Kevin:
Oh, you don't feel good?
Linda:
You're married, aren't you?
Lenny Weinrib:
How can you tell that?
Linda:
'Cause you got that look.
Lenny Weinrib:
What look is that?
Linda:
That look like it's been a long time since you had a great blowjob.
Chorus:
Lenny, don't be a schmuck!

Oh my God! It's more serious than we thought!
Greek Chorus Leader:
It's very serious! Her marriage to Lenny is in crisis!
Greek Chorus:
With the passage of time, even the strongest bonds become fragile!
Greek Chorus Leader:
Great, fellas, it sounds like a fortune cookie!
Greek Chorus:
Oh, Zeus! Most potent of gods! We implore thee! We need your help! Zeus! Great Zeus! Hear us! Hear us! We call out to thee!
Zeus:
Um, this is Zeus. I'm not home right now, but you can leave a message and I'll get back to you. Please start speaking at the tone.

What's wrong with his dick?
