Quotes 

• Fry : Wait, I'm having one of those things... like a headache, with pictures.

  Leela : An idea?

  Fry : [Nodding, a slight painful whimper in his voice]  MmmHmm...

• Dr. Zoidberg : I wonder what the shroud of Turin tastes like.

• Fry : They sure hate Zoidberg.

  Bender : Posers! I was hating Zoidberg before it was cool.

• Richard Nixon's Head : Let's storm the place... without my prior knowledge.

• Fry : So what is Freedom Day? Sounds like some kind of feminine hygiene product.

  Dr. Zoidberg : No. It's a fabulous, crabulous day!

  Amy Wong : If you wanna do something, you do it, and to splick with the consequences.

  Bender : You know, like how I live every day.

  [trips up Hermes] 

  Hermes Conrad : Happy Freedom Day! Ow, I think I broke my wrist.

• Captain Zapp Brannigan : You can't be too careful with these codes. Rumor has it a double agent is aboard this very ship.

  [Stares at Kif] 

  Captain Zapp Brannigan : I'm watching you. You, ensign. What's your name?

  Hugh Man : [Clearly a Decapodian in disguise]  Hugh Man, sir.

  Captain Zapp Brannigan : Hugh Man? Now that's a name you can trust. Run down to the central battle computer and enter these codes. Chop, chop!

  [Gives the codes to "Hugh", who scuttles out of the bridge] 

  Kif Kroker : Um, sir, there's something about that ensign that's...

  Captain Zapp Brannigan : You're damn right there is. That strapping young lad is gunning for your job, and he just might get it.

  ["Hugh" is seen out the window on a shuttle flying to the Decapodian ship] 

• Leela : Cool your jowls, Nixon. You may not like it that Dr. Zoidberg desecrated a flag. You might even find the image of it festering in his bowels somehow offensive. But the right to Freedom of Expression is guaranteed by the Earth Constitution!

  Richard Nixon : Is that so? Well, I happen to know a place where the Constitution doesn't mean squat!

  [Scene changes to the U.S. Supreme Court] 

• Fry : Wow! Nude hot-tubbing - that's all I need to hear about Freedom Day!

  Dr. Zoidberg : Then consider the following lecture a bonus.

• Captain Zapp Brannigan : Happy Freedom Day, ladies! Come on, show me something. Anything. Seriously, I'd take an armpit.

• Richard Nixon's Head : My fellow Earthicans, we enjoy so much freedom, it's almost sickening. We're free to chose which hand our sex-monitoring chip is implanted in. And if we don't want to pay our taxes, why, we're free to spend a week with the Pain Monster.

  The Pain Monster : See you April 15th, folks!

• [On the run from Earth authorities after eating the flag] 

  Dr. Zoidberg : My planet's embassy? Why, they'd pay to not kill me!

• Dr. Zoidberg : Is it possible that all this slavery and oppression is smutzing up our freedom lesson?

  Ambassador Moivin : Ah, take a pill, Zoidberg!

• Leela : Dr. Zodberg - how can you claim to love freedom and then enslave humanity?

  Dr. Zoidberg : Bah! Your planet doesn't deserve freedom until it learns what it is not to have freedom. It's a lesson, I say!

• Dr. Zoidberg : I'm swelling with patriotic mucus.

• Dr. Zoidberg : I wonder what the Shroud of Turin tastes like.

• Dr. Zoidberg : Ambassador Moivin, you killed my lawyer.

  Ambassador Moivin : You're welcome.

  Dr. Zoidberg : He defended my freedom when no-one else would. He was a good and honorable man.

• Leela : Dr. Zoidberg - how can you claim to love freedom and then enslave humanity?

  Dr. Zoidberg : Bah! Your planet doesn't deserve freedom until it learns what it is not to have freedom. It's a lesson, I say!

• Dr. Zoidberg : Deny my freedom, will you? Well we'll do to you what we did to the Squash Men of the Squash Planet! Squish them!

  [He laughs]
