Quote from Adult Sheldon

Adult Sheldon: Somehow, my parents didn't find out about me partying heartily. But I did pay a price for burning the candle at both ends. I made a mistake on a math test. In my exhaustion, I did all the calculations in my head, and, like a common zoo animal, forgot to show my work.

Quote from Adult Sheldon

Adult Sheldon: Extricating myself from this situation was not going to be easy. My father was counting on me, Meemaw was counting on me, the school was counting on me. After much thought, I decided to employ the one strategic maneuver I knew I could count on. I tattled.

Quote from Mary

George: You think Sheldon's right?
Mary: About what?

Mary: I should think so. He's been doing our taxes since he's six years old. We never been audited.
George: That's true.
Mary: He even got us that nice refund last year.

Quote from Meemaw

Meemaw: Is it your dentist? The little guy with the glasses? You can tell me.

Quote from Adult Sheldon

Adult Sheldon: Many years later, my brother would use this same argument in front of a judge. He was still convicted for urinating in a phone booth.
