Quotes 

• Marshall : [after telling Lily how he wants to provide them with the 'life ideal' of home, school for the children, et al]  I know that you don't need it, but I love you and I want to give it to you anyway. I want to give you the package.

  Lily : The package? You've already given me the package. You've got a great package, Marshall. I love your package.

  Marshall : Lily, you're the most incredible woman I know, and you deserve a big package.

  Lily : Your package has always been big enough. You may not realize this Marshall Eriksen, but you've got a hugh package.

  [walks off] 

  Marshall : [another woman who overheard the conversation smiles curiously as Marshall follows Lily]  Yeah.

• Lily : Look, you know, whatever anthropology you do at work is your business, but please don't act like that around here.

  Marshall : Lily, when Dr. Aurelia Birnholz-...

  Lily : No, when Dr. Australia Birdbath-Vaseline came home from the gorillas, she didn't run around picking nits out of people's hair and throwing feces!

• Marshall : [after Barney tells him to fit in at work he must change his entire personality]  Okay, at first, I was appalled, but then I realized it's just like Dr. Aurelia Birnholz-Vasquez in Life Among the Gorillas. I have to gain the acceptance of the herd by behaving exactly like one of them. It's an anthropological study. Isn't that cool?

  Lily : It sounds kinda like peer pressure.

  Marshall : No, no, no. It's totally anthropological and it's cool and I'm doing it.

  Lily : Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's peer pressure. We have an assembly every year.

  Marshall : I'm *portraying* someone who succumbs to peer pressure.

  Lily : All right, but if those guys try to pressure you to smoke, what do you say?

  Marshall : Only when I'm drunk.

• Lily : Screw them, we're adorable!
