Anybody have any favorite Barney Fife (or Andy Griffith Show) quotes?

You mean besides “Nip it in the bud!” ?

None.

Still a killer!

You know what they say: ugly in the cradle, lovely at the table.

A gem Alfreda!

Juanita, Juanita,
Lovely, dear Juanita,
From your head down to your feet,
There’s nothing half so sweet,
As Juanita, Juanita, Juanit.

Oh, there are things of wonder,
Of which men like to sing.
There are pretty sunsets and birds upon the wing,
But of the joys of nature,
None truly can compare,
With Juanita, Juanita, she of beauty beyond compare.
Juanita, Juanita, lovely dear Juanit.

“Why don’t you just run up an alley & say ‘fish’”.

He was a classic. I could sit & watch that show for hours. I loved it when he & Thelma Lou would kiss in the dark & he’d come up with his hair standing on end & lipstick all over his face. Now THAT was comedy!

I’ve got a compellsion. Yes. That’s what it is. A compellsion”

This was my favorite bit;

Anday: Hey, Barn, what if they was to ask you if you could sing a cappella, what would you do?
Barney Fife: Why, I’d do it!
[snapping fingers in rhythm]
Barney Fife: “A cappella, a cappella”... Well, I don’t remember all the words.

Barney Fife: [angry] Oh, you’re just full of fun today, aren’t you? Why don’t we go up to the old people’s home and wax the steps?

@TheLoneMonk I’m going to laugh about that one for days!

@Silhouette once you start thinking of Barney Fife you can’t help but laugh for days…
