Great Quotes Great Quotes Brought to you by SeinfeldQuotes.net Jerry: House in the Hamptons? George: Well, you know, I've been lying about my income for a few years; I figured I could afford a fake house in the Hamptons. -from “The Wizard” Kramer: Newman and I are reversing the peepholes on our door so you can see in. Elaine: Why? Newman: To prevent an ambush. Kramer: Yeah, so now I can peek to see if anyone is waiting to jack me with a sock full of pennies. Jerry: But then anyone can just look in and see you. Kramer: Our policy is, we're comfortable with our bodies. You know, if someone wants to help themselves to an eyeful, well, we say "Enjoy the show." -from “The Reverse Peephole” Jerry: His name is Joel Horneck. He lived, like, three houses down from me when I grew up. He had a Ping Pong table. We were friends. Should I suffer the rest of my life because I like to play Ping Pong? I was ten! I would've been friends with Stalin if he had a Ping Pong table! -from “Male Unbonding” Kramer: ¿Como se dice.. waterbed? -from “The Busboy” Kramer: Jerry, I'm sorry… You have insurance, right? Jerry: No. Kramer: How could you not have insurance? Jerry: Because I spent my money on the Klapco D29! It's the most impenetrable lock in the market today! It has only one design flaw. The door… must be closed! -from “The Robbery” Elaine: Ya know, its not fair people are seated first-come-first-serve. It should be based on who's hungriest… -from “The Chinese Restaurant” Elaine: Why can't you do it? Man: I can't. Elaine: No, see that's not a reason you can't. You just don't want to. Man: That's right. Elaine: But why? Why don't you want to? Man: I don't know. Elaine: But wouldn't you get any satisfaction out of helping someone out? Man: No, I wouldn't. -from “The Parking Garage” Kramer: I must have been out of my mind. Look at you… Why don't you do something with your life? Sit around here all day, you contribute nothing to society. You're just taking up space. How could I be with someone like you? Couldn't respect myself. -Kramer in “The Dog” Jerry: She had Man hands. -from “The Bizarro Jerry” Jerry: I think Superman probably has a very good sense of humor. George: I never heard him say anything really funny. Jerry: But it's common sense. He's got super strength, super speed.. I'm sure he's got super humor. George: You would think that, but either you're born with a sense of humor, or you're not. It's not going to change even if you go from the red sun of Krypton all the way to the yellow sun of the Earth. Jerry: Why? Why would that one area of his mind not be affected by the yellow sun of Earth? George: I don't know but he ain't funny. -from “The Stock Tip” Newman: (peering at bottle label) What is this 'MI, ten cents'? Kramer: That's Michigan. In Michigan you get ten cents. Newman: Ten cents!? Kramer: Yeah. Newman: Wait a minute. You mean you get five cents here, and ten cents there. You could round up bottles here and run 'em out to Michigan for the difference. Kramer: No, it doesn't work. Newman: What d'you mean it doesn't work? You get enough bottles together... Kramer: Yeah, you overload your inventory and you blow your margins on gasoline. Trust me, it doesn't work. -from “The Bottle Deposit, part 1” .

  • ELA 10 Academic Lit and Comp
    PLANNED COURSE OF STUDY Course Title English Literature and Composition - Academic Grade Level Tenth Grade Credits One Content Area / Dept. English Language Arts Length of Course One semester Author(s) J. McCaslin, K. Ward, G. Woehlcke Course Description: Literature and Composition (Academic), a diverse, thematically structured course, expands upon the writing process and the development of literary analysis skills. Students write a series of analytical and reader response essays and read from a variety of literary genres. Instruction focuses on analyzing literary elements, analyzing author’s purpose, and writing with precision and focus. Additionally, students learn and practice research skills and processes. Grammar usage within the context of students’ reading and writing is an integral component. Students also continue their study of vocabulary through close analysis of literary passages. Though many years of English education can have a bearing on their results, students take the Literature Keystone Exam in grade 10 in addition to their final exams. Course Rationale: The works in the tenth-grade curriculum compel all of us to examine who we are as storytellers. As students progress through the course, they engage in conversations about how we communicate our identities through the observations, insights, and stories we tell. To this end, students closely examine the obvious ways in which we communicate tone through language, movement, and the nature of our conflicts. These conversations yield valuable dialogue and allow multiple openings to evaluate how an author forms a literary identity. Equally important, students have the opportunity to self-reflect on their own identity. Ultimately, students can see how conflict shapes identity and produces insight and growth.

Savage 1 “Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint ─it’s delicious!” While this may sound like your typical television commercial, you can thank Jerry Seinfeld and his butter fingers for what is actually one of the most renowned lines in television history. As part of a 1993 episode of Seinfeld , subsequently known as “The Junior Mint,” these infamous words have certainly gained a bit more attention than the show’s writers had originally bargained for. In fact, those of you who were annoyed by last year’s focus on a McDonald’s McFlurry on NBC’s 30 Rock may want to take up your beef with Seinfeld’s producers for supposedly showing marketers the way to the future ("Brand Practice: Product Integration Is as Old as Hollywood Itself").

  • Which Seinfeld Character Are You?
    EPISODE 181: THE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MEETING WHICHWHICH SEINFELDSEINFELD CHARACTERCHARACTER AREARE YOU?YOU? In our business dealings, we are often guilty of just not listening. We come to the table with an agenda—a new product, a new service—and wait while a prospect or existing client tells us what’s going on with his or her business. At some point, that person will pause—and we pounce with our spiel. This approach rarely works - successful business development requires some level of rapport and relationship building. As in all aspects of life, this can mean dealing with those who may not share your views or approach. In order to adapt quickly and improvise in these instances, it’s helpful to understand people’s communication and personality styles. There are a number of tests that can help us understand the personality and communication styles of others, including the popular DISC model. This model has four quadrants: dominance, influence, steadiness, and conscientiousness. Influence and steadiness are on the right side of the brain, and dominance and conscientiousness are on the left side. Understanding someone’s dominant quadrant can help you find a way to work more effectively with them. UNDERSTANDING WHAT SEINFELD YOUR SITCOM CAST Now that you understand where you fall QUADRANT ARE YOU? within the quadrants, you can begin to think about how to work and respond to any cast of characters you may come I’ll let you in on an interesting tidbit, successful sitcoms often across. Friction will naturally arise include a character from each of the following quadrants, because these are people with opposite because the resulting friction tends to be funny.

  • The Magician by Kate Simon
    The Magician By Kate Simon Chapter One “God, I hate Mondays.” Anna ran her fingers through her long auburn hair. She may have gotten Dad’s long chin, button nose and the monster tush, but at least she had his great hair. Thick curls fell softly to her shoulders. Ok, so she had to touch up the few strands of gray, but at the ripe old age of forty-nine, a few strands weren’t too bad. She punched at the keys of her computer, looking for the right file. The new guy was coming, and she couldn’t find the damn client files. New Guy was replacing Fred Sterling, a tubby, nasty little man who rumor had it once pissed off Mother Teresa, not to mention important clients. His two martini lunches were the stuff of legend. That was until Anna discovered the last straw, heavily padded expense accounts. Fred had been submitting three figure lunch tabs from the same Tribecca restaurant for months. Hand written receipts were unusual in this day of computers, but not unheard of. Something still didn’t feel right. She’d pulled several weeks reports. The receipts in question were written by the same hand. They were also sequential. Fred never was the brightest bulb in the box. A quick call to the restaurant confirmed they ran all receipts through the cash register. It was one thing to tick off clients, but stealing money from the boss’s pocket was a mortal The Magician 2 By Kate Simon sin at Barrow. Freddy boy was left to concentrate all his efforts on his martinis, without those pesky clients to get in the way.
