Jim Parsons: Sheldon Cooper

Quotes 

• Sheldon : Sleep didn't come easy that night, knowing that at any moment, I could be decapitated. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the bed in my room had a dust ruffle, which to my young mind, only meant one thing: there was dust. But eventually I did drift off, haunted by the memory, the three of us gathered around the piano singing hippie folk music.

  [over Flora and Elliot singing "The Mighty Quinn"] 

  Sheldon : "You'll not see nothin." Shame on whoever wrote that.

• Meemaw : He's gonna come home every Friday night.

  Mary : I didn't think I'd have to deal with this 'till he went to college.

  Meemaw : You should thank your lucky stars he's not in college now.

  Meemaw : I'm still not sure that this is the right thing to do.

  Meemaw : Are you worried that he won't like it, or are you worried that he will?

  Mary : You're not helping.

  Meemaw : Well, that's not my job. I think of myself as a speaker of truth.

  Mary : If you're not gonna make me feel better, go away.

  Meemaw : I'm sorry, but you are stuck with me.

  Sheldon : [narrating as an adult]  As you can see, even as a small child, people cherished having me around and wept over my absence.
