Seinfeld is known for some very memorable lines. Here is a list of some of the best quotes from Season 1 and Season 2;
The pilot
George: You’re going to be “overdry”.
Jerry: You can’t “overdry”.
George: Why not?
Jerry: Same as “overwet” you can’t. You see, once something gets wet, it’s wet. Same with the dead: it’s like you died a long time ago, right? Let’s say you fall dead and I shoot you: you’re not going to die again, you’re already dead. You can’t “overdie”, you can’t “overdry”.
