Quotes 

• Chandler : I just think its time for you to settle down, you know, make a choice, pick a lane.

  Joey : Who's Elaine?

• Chandler : You're right. I have no excuses. I was totally over the line.

  Joey Tribbiani : Over the line? You... you... you're so far past the line that you can't even see the line! The line is a dot to you!

• [Joey finds out Chandler likes his girlfriend] 

  Joey : Did you sleep with her?

  Chandler : No, we just kissed.

  Joey : That's even worse!

  Chandler : How is that worse?

  Joey : I don't know, but it's the same!

• Chandler : [There is a canoe in the living room]  Come on in, have a seat. Bow or stern?

  Kathy : I don't really have a preference. You?

  Chandler : I like it in the stern... of the boat.

• Dr. Ross Geller : [as Chandler enters the coffee shop]  Hey, Chandler. Saw the new furniture, very nice.

  Monica Geller : Yeah, Joey has the best boyfriend ever!

  Chandler : I kissed Kathy.

  Monica Geller : Oh God, are you serious?

  Phoebe Buffay : Oh my God, does Joey know?

  Chandler : No. Is there any way, any way you think he will understand this?

  Monica Geller : You obviously haven't screwed over a lot of your friends.

  [Sees Chandler's face] 

  Monica Geller : Which we all appreciate.

  Dr. Ross Geller : You know, the sad thing is if you had told him how you felt before you kissed her, knowing Joey he probably just would've stepped aside.

  Chandler : Oh, don't say that. Don't say that. That's not true, is it?

  [Group mutters in agreement] 

  Chandler : Well why didn't you tell me to do that!

  Dr. Ross Geller : Well, I said something to Phoebe...

  Phoebe Buffay : Yeah, no that's right and I thought it was a really good idea.

  [Rest of group agrees] 

  Chandler : [Sitting down]  Oh my God! What am I gonna do?

  Rachel Green : Well, Chandler you're gonna have to tell him.

  Chandler : Why? Why do I have to tell him?

  Rachel Green : Because you do.

  Chandler : Yeah, I know.

  Dr. Ross Geller : [Leans towards Chandler]  Would it be okay if I wrote a song about this?
