• Aunt Bee Taylor : According to you, the Lord made two sexes: men and blabbermouths.

  Andy Taylor : That was well put, Aunt Bee. Well put.

• Emma Brand : I suppose you're not capable of gossiping.

  Andy Taylor : Oh, oh, I guess we're capable all right, but somehow or another it just don't come as natural to us as it does to you all.

• Barney Fife : Somebody just called to say I'm dead!

  Andy Taylor : What?

  Barney Fife : That call! They said Barney Fife shot himself in the chest!

  Andy Taylor : You did?

  Barney Fife : You think I'd know it if I shot myself in the chest, wouldn't you? That'd smart!

• Aunt Bee Taylor : Oh, for lands sakes! How did such a story get out anyway?

  Andy Taylor : When I come in the drugstore this mornin' to get some sulphur powder for Barney's finger, there was just three women present. There was you two and Clara Lindsey. Now, you was the only ones that heard me say about Barney having a small cut.

  Aunt Bee Taylor : So?

  Andy Taylor : So, from a small cut, it took you all exactly three and a half hours to get him killed off!

• Andy Taylor : Mornin', ladies! My goodness, don't you look happy! Must be cuttin' somebody up pretty good.!
