  Episode Quotes  
Jerry: It reminds me of like this pathetic friend that everbody had when they were a little kid who would let you borrow any of his stuff if you would just be his friend. That's what the library is. A government funded, pathetic friend.
 
Kramer: Bookman. The library cop's name is Bookman. That's like an ice cream man being named cone!
 
(while talking about wedgies)
Elaine: Boys are sick.
Jerry: What do girls do?
Elaine: We just tease someone 'til they develop an eating disorder.

Marion the librarian mentions that Lt. Bookman has been at the library for 25 years. However, Lt. Bookman later states that he's been on the job since 1971 which would amount to 20 years, not 25.
