Quotes

Raj Koothrappali : Do you know what he did? He watched me work for ten minutes, and then started to design a simple piece of software that could replace me.
Leonard Hofstadter : Is that even possible?
Raj Koothrappali : As it turns out, yes.

Penny : Oh, hey guys, what's up?
Howard Wolowitz : We need a hot fifteen year old Asian girl with a thing for smart guys.
Penny : What?
Leonard Hofstadter : Howard, that's racist. Any fifteen year old girl will do the trick.
[Penny slams door]
Raj Koothrappali : It's possible she may have misunderstood us.

Raj Koothrappali : Hey, look at that. It's Dennis Kim.

Howard Wolowitz : Yeah, let's go with that.
-
Leonard Hofstadter : Okay, so we now have a socially awkward genius in a room full of attractive, age-appropriate women.
Howard Wolowitz : All he has to do now is hook up with one of them.
Leonard Hofstadter : Anyone else see the flaw in this plan?
Raj Koothrappali : We need a social catalyst.
Leonard Hofstadter : Like what? We can't get fifteen year old girls drunk.
Howard Wolowitz : Or can we...?
Leonard Hofstadter : No, we can't!
-
Howard Wolowitz : Unbelievable. Components I built are on the International Space Station and I get a ticket for launching a model rocket in the park.
Leonard Hofstadter : I don't know if the ticket was so much for the launch as it was for you telling the policewoman "You have to frisk me. I have another rocket in my pants."
-
Leonard Hofstadter : The kid got a girl.
Raj Koothrappali : Unbelievable.
Howard Wolowitz : Did anyone see how he did it?

Dennis Kim : [notices award certificate on wall of Sheldon's office] Wow! You won a Stevenson Award?
Sheldon Cooper : Yes! In fact, I am the youngest person ever to win it.
Dennis Kim : Really! How old?
Sheldon Cooper : Fourteen and a half.
Dennis Kim : Hm - you *were* the youngest person ever to win it.

Dr. Eric Gablehauser : Gentlemen, I'd like you to meet Dennis Kim. Dennis is a *highly* sought-after doctoral candidate, and we're hoping to have him do his graduate work here.
Leonard Hofstadter : Graduate work? Very impressive.
Dr. Eric Gablehauser : And he's only 15 years old.

Leonard Hofstadter : [to Sheldon] Advantage: Kim.

[first lines]
Sheldon Cooper : Here's the problem with teleportation.
Leonard Hofstadter : Lay it on me.
Sheldon Cooper : Assuming a device could be invented, which would identify the quantum state of matter of an individual in one location and transmit that pattern to a distant location for reassembly, you would not have actually transported the individual; you would have destroyed him in one location and recreated him in another.
Leonard Hofstadter : How about that.
Sheldon Cooper : Personally, I would never use a transporter, because the original Sheldon would have to be disintegrated in order to create a new Sheldon.
Leonard Hofstadter : Would the new Sheldon be in any way an improvement on the old Sheldon?
Sheldon Cooper : No, he would be exactly the same.
Leonard Hofstadter : That is a problem.

Sheldon Cooper : 15 years old. Dennis Kim is 15 years old, and he's already correcting my work. Today, I went from being Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, to... You know, that other guy.
Howard Wolowitz : Antonio Salieri?
Sheldon Cooper : Oh God, now even you are smarter than me.
Howard Wolowitz : You know, you don't have so many friends that you can afford to start insulting them.
Leonard Hofstadter : Just eat, Sheldon, you'll feel better.
Sheldon Cooper : Why waste food? In Texas, when a cow goes dry, they don't keep feeding it, they just... take her out and shoot her between the eyes.
Penny : I'm confused. Did Sheldon stop giving milk?
