George Jefferson : Listen, I wear the pants in this family...
Louise Jefferson : And when you zip them up, include your mouth!

Louise Jefferson : George, why do we have to fight so much? If we have a problem, why can't we just talk it through like Tom and Helen? They don't fight.
George Jefferson : They don't fight, 'cause they're scared to fight.
Helen Willis : What's that supposed to mean?
George Jefferson : You know damn well what it means! If you two ever really started going at each other, inside of five minutes, he'd be calling you...
Helen Willis : Don't say it!
George Jefferson : Nigger!
Helen Willis : He said it!

Tom Willis : Now, you listen to me! We've had lots of fights, and it's never happened!
George Jefferson : Oh, and don't tell me it's never crossed your mind!
Helen Willis : No more than it's ever crossed my mind to say the word "honky" to Tom.
George Jefferson : Ha! Well, how come you said it just then?
