Fans celebrate George's iconic line from The Hot Tub about becoming "Lord of the Idiots," debating the exact wording and praising the comedic timing with the surrounding scene.
George says his best line ever in the early episode with Michael Chiklis (The Commish) in it.
"I just gave up a lifetime of guilt-free sex and free tickets to every major sporting event in Madison Square Garden. So all hail, for I am COSTANZA, LORD...OF THE IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Don't forget, right after that line the woman screams out the window "You're all winners"(to the people running the marathon) and George says "suddenly a new contender emerges" Hilarious.
don't it go "so please, show some respect, for i am Costanza, Lord of the idiots!!!!!" ?

Yes it recently aired (again) in OZ and it does say that.
For I am Costanza, Lord of the idiots.
Then Roxanne (Elaine's friend whose apartment they're at to watch the marathon) pipes up in the background "You're all winners" in reference to the runners.
And then George says (which is the funniest part of all IMHO), "And suddenly a new contender emerges."
This episode cracked me up when I first saw it because it had so many crossing story lines and that's what I love about Seinfeld.
But what about:
"Do you ever get down on your knees and thank God that you have access to my mind and its dementia?" (from "The Switch")
Or:
"The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man sending back a bowl of soup." (from the episode in which George plays a marine biologist)
I'd say these are heavy contenders.
Small correction: "The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli." One of George's best lines.
George's best line: When he and his parents are going to meet Susan's parents: "ALright, alright, let's not get into PANIC MODE!!!'
And in the Pigman episode--"Perhaps he baby would like to see the spot!"
--Tracy
Another good line, (approx): "I've lived my life in shame. Why should I die with dignity."
Also, talking about converting to the Orthodox Latvian (?) Church: "Sure, I'll convert - what the hell do I care..."

I hereby suggest, "Do you ever just get down on your knees and thank God that you know me and have access to my dementia?", after revealing the plan to Jerry in "The Switch". Running a close second, after Susan was manifestly uninterested in his idea to have full-length doors on the stalls in Yankee Stadium in "The Postponement", he told Jerry (approximately, "She said to change the subject. Toilets were the subject. We don't even share the same interests."
My all-time favorite George line is "tippy toe, lemon tree!"
"I'd like to dip my baldhead and rub it all over your body..."
Or when breaking up with Susan the second time by..picking his nose..
"When she came back..I WAS UP TO MY WRIST!!!"
t
HAPPY, PAPPY?
Dip my bald head IN OIL and rub it all over your body...
am I correct... gotta have the oil for effect

That might be the best George line ever, however this conversation between George and Kramer is close: George: "Kramer, should I call Susan?" Kramer: " Now what does the little man inside you say? See you gotta listen to the little man." G: "My little man doesn't know." K: "The little man knows all." G: "My little man's an idiot."
IMHO, Jason Alexander is by far the most talented actor on the show, perhaps the best comedic actor on tv.
When George is describing Jerry to Cheryl Fong, the lawyer who thinks Jerry is depressed and disturbed:
"His whole life revolves around Superman and cereal"

This one is a classic, where George and Susan are playing trivial "persuit" with the bubble boy.
George: Who invaded spain in the "14th" century Bubble boy: That's easy, the "Moors" George: Oh nooooo, i'm sorry it's the "Moops" ........ I'm not sure about the spelling of the words in "", but I think it's about right.

Gotta go with George's line to Jerry after "the Roommate Switch" serendipitously backfires: "Do you ever get down on your knees and thank God that you know me and have access to my dementia?"

Elaine's boss: I've heard some rumors that you've been having sex with the cleaning lady in your office. George: Who said that? Elaine's boss: The cleaning lady. [pause] George: Was that wrong?

This overlooked exchange in what I think was "The Move" or maybe "The Mechanic":
Woman: What are you doing? George: Pleasuring you. W: Well, stop!
The least you could do is look up the word "Moops" to see if you spelled it right.
ANYTIME George says "Baby ....." it's a great line!
I'm trying to get a page devoted to George on the web, and I need some help...I'm trying to get all the jobs he has had, the one's he's pretended to have, and the one's he'sl almost had...
Suggestions? Mail me at: [email]
My inbox for this address is messed up!! so use the one listed just above this line!
Thanks...

I think George gets upset because his therapist couldn't tell what kind of white discolouration he had under the nose, there was nothing like that he shows her script and she didn't find that funny.

Well, it's more of a monologue, but the one where he's telling Jerry about how he'll confront the woman who poured syrup all over his red shirt when they get to the baby shower is great!
It's classic when he ends up not doing it, and one of the women there says practically the same thing to Jerry for snubbing her after a date.

I love that monologue when George said, "You see, there's relationship george and independent george. " and "a george divided against itself, can not stand". That's the same episode when Kramer was FILK. That was probably my favorite seinfeld episode
I'm with you, this scene cracks me up. I love the lines just before this, when he is about to read the final question:
BB: "This is it. The last question. How you doing over there? Not TOO good!"
George: "OK, Bubble Boy..."
The way he says "Bubble Boy" is classic!

I think the cleaning lady is the same girl as Lupe the chamber maid in the motel California, She eventually tucked in the bed sheets. And asked the suspect's opinion about tipping the chamber maid.
