Matthew Gray Gubler: Dr. Spencer Reid

Quotes 

• Dr. Spencer Reid : Braden certainly would be vulnerable. Unlike classic autism, language ability is intact in people with Asperger's. They appear to lack empathy and have trouble reading social cues. Albert Einstein supposedly had it, as do some well-known Silicon Valley types.

  Alex Blake : Well, how about you?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : What's that?

• Alex Blake : You know, by the way, no offense earlier when I suggested you had Asperger's.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : None taken. When did you do that?

  Alex Blake : Ah... , and that's what I love about you. You're not overly sensitive like some people. I mean, think about how much time we'd save if everyone just got straight to the point.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Yeah. Cut out all the handshakes and how-do-you-dos.

  Alex Blake : Yeah.

• Dr. Spencer Reid : This place brings back memories. When I was a kid, I made a model of the universe out of salt.

  Alex Blake : Was it for a school project?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : No, it was a birthday present for Carl Sagan, but I don't think he ever got it.

• Alex Blake : Was this house remodeled?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : It's a Tudor revival house, which means it was built in the 1940s. But I see hardware fixtures from the 1980s, composite window moldings from 2000...

  Alex Blake : That would be yes.

• Owner Ravenwood Camp : Do you know what the biggest problem in America is today?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : We're losing the war against antibiotics resistance!

  Owner Ravenwood Camp : Smartphones! I saw this family in a restaurant the other day and no one was talking to each other. And they were all on their phones, texting, tweeting, emailing, what have you
