Quotes 

• Bertram Pincus : Listen, our time together, as we both know, has been rather unpleasant. But I will say this: even though you're a vulgar man - boorish, distasteful, uncouth, uneducated, *stupid* - at least...

  [long pause] 

  Frank Herlihy : You gonna finish?

  Bertram Pincus : Done.

  [shrugs] 

• Bertram Pincus : You lied. Why would you do that?

  Frank Herlihy : Because you're a heartless son-of-a-bitch who doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone but himself. She's already had one of those.

• Frank Herlihy : You're a sad little man.

  Bertram Pincus : And you're a lying, bigamist, corpse.

  Frank Herlihy : No, no, I'm not a bigamist. I'm an adulterer. It's a whole different thing.

• Frank Herlihy : [to Bertram about his ability to see ghosts]  Everybody needs something done and you're the only person who can see or hear us.

• Frank Herlihy : What's with the doom and gloom? It's goin' good. You're weaseling your way right in there. This is gonna work.

  Bertram Pincus : This Richard fellow. I just... I think Gwen really loves him. You know, he's a human rights lawyer.

  Frank Herlihy : Hey, when the devil shows up, you think he's gonna have little red horns and carry a pitchfork? No, he's gonna work for Amnesty International, and he's gonna give all his money to the homeless.

  Bertram Pincus : Well, if he did all that, wouldn't he lose the title "the devil"?

  Frank Herlihy : [sighs]  You know what I mean. Pincus, I got better things to do with my time. I wouldn't just be hanging out here.

  Bertram Pincus : What exactly is your problem with Richard?

• [discussing the kind of man they need to romance Gwen] 

  Frank Herlihy : I was thinking he should be rugged... you know?

  Bertram Pincus : No, not rugged... just... approachable...

  Frank Herlihy : Really?

  Bertram Pincus : ...Round-faced, if anything... and sensitive.

  Frank Herlihy : Well, he should at least be tall...

  Bertram Pincus : No, no, no he's not.

  Frank Herlihy : No?

  Bertram Pincus : No, just... average...

  Frank Herlihy : Average.

  Bertram Pincus : ...Bordering on short.

  Frank Herlihy : Hmm...

  [laughing] 

  Frank Herlihy : Good god, you mean *you*!

• Frank Herlihy : [regarding Gwen]  You're in love with her.

  [Dr. Pincus walks away] 

  Frank Herlihy : You are.

  [sighs, slaps his forehead] 

  Frank Herlihy : I knew it. That little Grinch heart of yours actually started beating and now you want to take it back to your cave and crush it with a rock. That's what you wanna do.

  Bertram Pincus : I quit.

  Frank Herlihy : You can't quit. I'll make your life a living hell.

  Bertram Pincus : [stares at Frank]  It already is.

  [Frank walks away] 

• Bertram Pincus : I was dead and now they brought me back. I can... I can...

  Frank Herlihy : The dead have a lot of unfinished business, which is why we're still here.

• [Pincus is about to go talk to Gwen] 

  Frank Herlihy : You should lose the scrubs.

  Bertram Pincus : I'm a dentist - I just came from work. This is what we wear.

  Frank Herlihy : Fine...

  Bertram Pincus : This is how we do it, baby.

• Frank Herlihy : I got to tell you, nobody was more excited than the naked guy.
