Listen, when my granddaughter's boyfriend's band plays an under-21 club with my daughter-in-law's brother's gay partner, I show up. That's just how I was raised.

Frank

No, I don't love the dog. I love my couch and the dog was looking at it like it was a giant sausage.

Claire

I always felt bad for people with emotionally distant fathers; it turns out I'm one of them. It's a miracle I didn't end up a stripper.

Phil

He sheds. I made the mistake of letting him sleep with me on the road. Now my sheets look like two bigfoots did it.

Frank

Was that the alarm? Has our perimeter been breached?

Manny

Phil: Dad, what's up?
Frank: Nothing, but these boxers are starting to ride high.
Phil: I'm in no mood for jokes... although that was a good one. You still got it.

Mitchell's new boss: Do you guys surf?
Cameron: Only for bargains on the Web!

You're doing great, Luke, if your goal is to suck!

Basketball Coach

Business partners, mergers and acquisitions. Just kidding, we're gay!

Cameron [on his relationship with Mitchell]

Alex, honey, when you're out shopping, you might want to pick yourself up a training bra. I know you don't need one now but your little boobies are going to come in soon. Mommy loves you, kitten!

Claire

I'm going to have to go talk it over with my bull in a china shop.

Mitchell

A relationship with your father-in-law is tough. You need to prove you can stand up to him, while being respectful. It's like walking a tightrope, which by the way I can do, because I went to trapeze school.

Phil

Modern Family Quotes

You could pretend to get sick at the table. You know cough, stomachache, dealer's choice, I don't care just sell it.

Mitchell

Thank you Uncle Manny!
