Charlie: They watch girls' softball?
Bartlet: When that's what's on, that's what they watch. It's that, or a cricket match betweeen Scotland and Bermuda. Now, I am an educated man, Charlie, but when somebody tries to explain cricket to me, all I want to do is hit them in the head with a teapot.

Danny: I have covered the White House for eight years and I've done it with the New York Times, The Washington Post, Time Magazine, and The Dallas Morning News, and I'm telling you, you can't mess me around like this!
C.J.: Danny, I got to tell you that was, seriously, that was a turn-on when you said that, though, I don't know why you decided to be most haughty on "The Dallas Morning News" in that sentence.
Mrs. Landingham: You need to be in the car ten minutes ago, Mr. President.
