• Ruchi : Are you sure you're okay with this?

  Raj Koothrappali : Honestly, Ruchi, I don't have a lot of experience with casual relationships. I have some experience with serious relationships and a ton of experience with no relationships.

• Ruchi : What people call "love" is actually a series of biochemical reactions in the brain that fade over time.

  Raj Koothrappali : Yes. Like the old song, "When a man has a biochemical reaction for a woman."

  Ruchi : Raj, we're scientists. We don't need to feel threatened just because we understand the mechanisms that give rise to romantic feelings.

  Raj Koothrappali : It doesn't take anything away from the experience. Yes, it does. Actually, it takes everything away from it. Love isn't just science. It's-it's spiritual. It's an acknowledgment of a mystery that's greater than ourselves. It's what makes people write songs and poems, and what has kept "The Bachelor" on TV for 21 magical seasons.

  Ruchi : Don't you think the fact that love is given away as a prize on a game show slightly undermines your argument?

  Raj Koothrappali : Uh, yes. But I've never missed an episode, and I dare science to explain that.
