**Marge** Well you should at least _try_ to (blah, blah blah…)

**Homer** Hmmp! I don’t know Marge, _trying_ sounds like the first step towards failure.

“Hello, Marge? I can’t go to the ballet because I’m stuck in two vending machines.”

Burns: “Get off my property, or I’ll…”  
Homer: “Or you’ll what? Or you’ll release the hounds, or the bees, or the hounds with bees in their mouths and when they bark they shoot bees at you?”

“Marge, you can’t become a cop, because if you do, then you’ll be the man, which means I’ll be the woman, which means that I’ll have to wear the sexy underwear, which, as we discussed, is strictly for comfort purposes.”

Scully: Mr. Simpson, it’s a felony to lie to the FBI.

The thing about Homer is that his wisdom is funny. Stupidity is always funny. I’m surprised there hasn’t been a licensed book of Homer Simpson quotes yet- it would sell. “The Wit and Wisdom of Homer Simpson” or something like that. I know _I’d_ buy it.

These are all paraphrases, but I believe they still keep the original intent of the quotes:

You stole something? Didn’t you listen to those sermons at church by that guy- Captain whathisname? And why do you think I took you to all those _Police Academy_ movies? For fun? Well, I didn’t hear anybody laughing, did you? Except at that guy who made sound effects. Where was I? Oh yeah- stay out of my booze!

When I heard Marge was joining the police academy, I thought it would be fun and exciting like that movie _Spaceballs_. It turns out it’s dull and repetitive like that movie _Police Academy_.

I saw this in a movie about a bus that was **speed** ing around a city, and it had to keep its **speed** up, because if its **speed** went under 55, it would explode. I think it was called “The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down.”

Homer: I’m really into these Hardy Boys books. This one’s about smugglers.  
Bart: Dad, they’re _all_ about smugglers.  
Homer: Not this one- _The Smugglers of Pirate’s Cove._ It’s about pirates.

Symbols of love…a postcard to Marge from the Duff Brewery (written in drunken handwriting):  
Maybe it’s the beer talking Marge, but yours is a butt that won’t quit. They’ve got these giant pretzels here and _-_–\_---- five bucks? Get outta here!

Symbols of ex-love…the perfect way to break up with someone in letter form, according to Homer:  
Three simple words: I am gay!

The essential Homerisms. Homer at his happiest:  
Mmm…beer.  
Mmm…donuts.  
(or whatever he’s craving)  
Homer at his luckiest:  
Woo-hoo!  
And of course, Homer at his angriest:  
D’oh!

Homer: Everybody into the pool!  
Amish fellow: That’s a fine looking barn you’ve got there. But it’s no pool.  
Homer: D’oheth!

And both of you were beaten by post 2.

As for _our_ Homer’s reading habits, he follows the three R’s: reading _TV Guide_, writing to _TV Guide_, and, um…renewing _TV Guide_.

Maaax Power, he’s the man  
With the name you’d love to touch!  
But you musn’t tooooouch!

His name sounds good in your ear,  
But when you hear it, you musn’t fear!  
Cuz his name can be said by anyone!"

Same ep:

Some guy: “Great name, by the way”  
Homer/Max Power: “Thanks, I got it from my wife’s hair dryer”

I always love the aftermath of Homer’s talk about the birds and the bees.

So I says top the guy “Oh yeah? you want your money… well come an get it 'cause I don’t have it ya baloney! You make me wanna wretch!” (passes out)  
Or his love letter to Marge

Dear Marge,

There’s no air in space.  
Homer: There’s an air ‘n’ space museum.

The one I work into conversation at least once a day: He did it because he’s stupid. That’s the only reason anybody does anything.
