Ben: Chi is a cosmic breath ... speaking of cosmic breath, Dad, brush your cosmic teeth.

(about Dr. Katz's credit card) Ben: I have not racked up that much money. Dr. Katz: Well, the day is young.

Harry: You don't do radio (therapy)? Dr. Katz: No I don't. They're in show business. They are often abusive to people who call in. Dr. Katz might be referring to the famous radio personality Dr. Laura. She is known for being blunt and not coddling her callers. However, "abusive" might be a bit strong in describing her.
