Sarah: She's 10 years old. She should be playing with dolls or wanting a pony. Not wanting to be some fallen teen pop star.
Rebecca: My mom used to let me dress as Madonna and she didn't care. I raided her closet.
Sarah: You think I'm going to take parenting tips from your mama?

Ever since I got here, I've been coddled like some half-wit or straight-out insulted ... I'm a crack shot, but clearly that's not enough to impress you. It's not enough that I wear button-downs ... and eat red meat ... and smoke the occasional cigar. You can't see past your own bias to see I ... Kicked ... Your ... Ass!

Kevin

Scotty: Are you looking for something?
Justin: Yeah, er... (he looks around) yeah. My trumpet. Here it is.
Scotty: Oh you play?
Justin: Er no.
Scotty: Oh you played growing up?
Justin: No.

Justin: (handing over Kevin's pills) Here.
Kevin: Where's the other one? There's two.
Justin: I just saw the one in the kitchen.
Kevin: Well this is the antibiotic. I need the painkillers.
Justin: Alright, this one will keep you from going septic. Unless you want to go back in the house then man-up. I'm not going back in there.

Sarah: (talking on the phone to Kevin about Justin) Does he seem OK to you?
Kevin: Yeah, a little crabby maybe. Why?
Sarah: He had a disastrous morning. He was painted a total loser by a class of first graders.
Kevin: I wish that seemed weirder.

Sarah: Look Justin, there's nothing wrong with not having that long-term plan per se.
Tommy: But playing Super Mario Brothers all day long probably shouldn't be your life goal.

Kevin: Oh my god, look Scotty I can explain everything.
Scotty: Great. How about explaining to me what part of in sickness and in health means leaving me at home with your mother.

Rebecca: How do you do it? How do you just pretend like he doesn't exist?
Holly: I know he exists. I'm just glad he doesn't exist here.

Sarah: Everybody grab a chair and assume your usual positions. Oh, except for Justin. We decided to let you sit at the big person's table this year.
Justin: Yes, I made it. (hugs Saul) Uncle Saul, I made it.

Sarah: You know, everybody in this building is on some kind of drug, and we can't even drink. That's not fair.
Robert: And that's not sparkling cider.

Kitty: Every thanksgiving, when mom asks Kevin if he would like a piece of pie, Kevin always says the same thing and then he proceeds to eat half of the pie all by himself. So here's to Kevin, who this year, gave new meaning to the phrase, "Oh, just a sliver."
Kevin: That is the worst, most tasteless toast I have ever heard.

Justin: Look, you gotta put a good face on this, right? Just act like this'll be fun. You know, it's you and mom hanging out on thanksgiving, you know, a couple single girls, ladies' night, you know? That way she won't freak out on us.
Sarah: I hope you all get salmonella and die.

Brothers & Sisters Quotes

No, no. No 'Buts'. You're not allowed to give up. You're not allowed to give up because you believe in your gut that this is right. And besides, we've all inherited this absurd drive to make things that, that yes, they seem complicated and they're messy, but we can turn them into something great.
