Lilith: I suggest that your behavior indicates an unacceptable level of sexual frustration. You strike me as a man who needs professional help. Or a girlfriend.
Frasier: And you strike me as a woman who could use a good cuffing. edit »
Frasier: Believe it or not, Sam. It's actually possible to have hostile feelings towards someone without being in love with them.
Sam: You mean I can actually hate Diane without having it mean anything more than I hate her.

Frasier: Yes, like that...! edit »
