Chandler: I thought tonight was your big anniversary dinner.
Ross: Yeah, there's been a little change of plans. We're breaking up instead.

Ross: Is Rach in her room?
Monica: Oh, no. She's still at work, but she told me to tell you to call her.
Ross: What? Is she gonna cancel on me again? How could she do this? Doesn't she know it's our anniversary?
Monica: Alright, Ross? This is the extent of my knowledge on the subject: Call Rachel.

Joey: So what are you gonna do?
Ross: What can I do? One person wants to break up, you break up.
Chandler: Hey, no way! Come on, this is you guys. Call her and work it out.
Ross: Oh come on. We just had this huge fight, all right? Don't I have to wait a while?
Chandler: Hey, this isn't like swimming after you eat, pick up the phone!! (Ross goes to call her)
Chandler: You know that whole swimming thing is a myth.
Joey: Yeah, Tell that to my Uncle Lenny.
Chandler: Why? What happened to him?
Joey: Nothing, he just really believes in that.

Ross: (About Rachel attending a lecture with Mark) Well, I'm sorry, but, ah, look if you're not working with him anymore, why do you have to still do stuff with him?
Rachel: Because, he's my friend.
Ross: Okay, but do you really need another friend? I mean...
Rachel: Okay, well if I stop playing with Joey and Chandler, can I play with Mark?
Ross: Is that funny? Am I supposed to be laughing?
Ross: I don't know, you thought "See you Saturday" was funny.

Rachel: I've got some bad news.
Ross: What?
Rachel: I can get a quick bite to eat, but then I have to come back up here.
Ross: Come on sweetie! You've had to work late every night for the past two weeks, what is it this time?
Mark: Actually, it's kinda my fault. I, I quit today.
Ross: (To Rachel) But work comes first!

Ross: A hundred million people went to see a movie about what I do. I wonder how many people would go see a movie called Jurassic Parka.
Rachel: Oh, that is so--
Ross: No, no, no, a bunch of out-of-control jackets take over an island! (Ross gasps and throws off his jacket).

Ross: When do you think you're going to get off tonight?
Rachel: Oh I don't know honey. It's gonna be really late.
Ross: Oh come on, not again.
Rachel: I know. I'm sorry. Look, I'll make a deal with you all right? Okay?
Ross: Hm.
Rachel: For every night that you're asleep before I get home from work...
Ross: Yeah.
Rachel: I will wake you up in a way that's proved very popular in the past.
Ross: Now, if you need to stay late, I want to be supportive of that.

Joey: Since when do you roller blade?
Phoebe: Oh! Since tomorrow. I met this really cute guy in the park and he like, you know, jogs, and blades, and swims, and so, you know, we made a deal that's he's going to teach me all sorts of jock stuff.
Ross: And what are you going to do for him?
Phoebe: I'm going to let him.

Joey: Amy just burned Jo's manuscript. I don't see how he could ever forgive her!
Ross: Uh, Jo's a girl, it's short for Josephine.
Joey: But Jo's got a crush on Laurie. Oh, you mean it's like a a girl-girl thing? Cause that's the one thing missing from The Shining!
Chandler: No actually Laurie's a boy.
Joey: No wonder Rachel had to read this so many times!

Ross: She's having lunch with him. She's having lunch with him! And you should of seen the hug she gave him when she got the job. And, and, and, he's really good looking. What am I gonna do?
Chandler: Don't do anything. Keep it inside. Learn how to hide your feelings! Don't cry out loud.

Mark: (Answering the phone) Rachel Green's line, how may I help you?
Ross: Hi, is Rachel there?
Mark: And who may I say is calling?
Ross: This is Ross.
Mark: Ross of...?
Ross: Of Ross and Rachel.

Ross: I'm sorry, I was an idiot.
Rachel: A big idiot.
Ross: A big idiot. Just you have to realize is, this whole Mark thing is kinda hard for me.
Rachel: Honey, why is it hard, I mean we've been together for almost a year now?
Ross: Well, I was with Carol for like eight years and I lost her. And now if it's possible I think I love you even more. So, it's hard for me to believe that I'm not gonna, well that someone else is not going to take you away.
Gunther: (Eavesdropping) Let it be me! Let it be me!
