Quotes 

• Sheldon Cooper : [furious that Leslie wrote on his board]  I don't come in to your house and touch your board!

  Leslie Winkle : There are no incorrect equations on my board.

  Sheldon Cooper : Oh, that is so... so...

  Leslie Winkle : I'm sorry, I gotta run. If you come up with an adjective, text me.

  Sheldon Cooper : [after Leslie leaves and a brief pause]  Inconsiderate. THAT is the adjective! Inconsiderate.

• Leslie : Just so we're clear, you understand that me hanging back to practice with you is a pretext for letting you know that I'm sexually available.

• Leslie : I admire your fingering.

  Leonard : Thank you.

  Leslie : Maybe sometime you can try that on my instrument.

• Leonard : Why are you smashing a flash-frozen banana?

  Leslie : 'Cause I got a bowl of Cheerios and I couldn't find a knife.

• Leonard Hofstadter : Leslie and I do research together at the university.

  Penny : Oh, wow! A girl scientist.

  Leslie Winkle : Yup, come for the breasts, stay for the brains.

• Leonard : Penny? What about her?

  Leslie : Well, I thought I saw your pupils dilate when you looked at her, which, unless you're a heroin addict, points to sexual attraction.

• Leslie : [Penny and Sheldon are listening in to Leonard's room through the door] 

  [monotone] 

  Leslie : Oh Leonard, you magnificent beast.

• Leslie : Listen, neither of us are neuroscientists, but we both understand the biochemistry of sex. I mean, dopamine in our brains is released across synapses, causing pleasure. You stick electrodes in a rat's brain, give him an orgasm button, he'll push that thing until he starves to death.

  Leonard : Well, who wouldn't?

  Leslie : Well, the only difference between us and the rat is that you can't stick an electrode in our hypothalamus. That's where you come in.

  Leonard : Yeah, well, I'm just glad to be a part of it. So what happens now?

  Leslie : I don't know about your sex drive, but I'm probably good till New Year's.

• Leonard : I thought you weren't interested in me.

  Leslie : That was before I saw you handling that beautiful piece of wood between your legs.

  Leonard : You mean my cello?

  Leslie : No, I mean the obvious crude double entendre,

• Leslie Winkle : We rehearse on Tuesday's at your place.

  Leonard : Why at my place?

  Leslie Winkle : Yeah, the Department of Energy said our regular space is kind of a hot zone.

• Leslie : The Physics department string quartet needs a new cellist.

  Leonard : What happened to Elliot Wong?

  Leslie : He switched over to high-energy radiation research, had a little mishap, and now the other guys are uncomfortable sitting next to him.
