    Memorable Quotes from Pushing Daisies

    "A hug is like an emotional Heimlich: they put their arms around you and give you a squeeze and all your fear and anxiety goes shooting out of your mouth like a big wet wad and you can breathe again."

    Ned: "This is pushing your luck."
    Chuck: "Yeah, well, luck pushed me first."

    [holding up an identical ID badge to Emerson] "I gave the security guard a hug goodbye. My upper body distracted him while these things I call 'hands' took this off his belt."

    Ned: "Are you a drug mule?"
    Chuck: "No! I’m a … monkey mule."

    [to Ned] "You love secrets. You want to marry secrets and have little half-secret, half-human babies."

    Chuck: "I’ve been ruminating – and by ruminating, I mean pondering, not chewing cud – how about we solve my murder and collect the reward? Wouldn’t that be poetic? Certainly an anecdote."
    Ned: "I thought you didn’t want the reward."
    Chuck: "No, I wanted you not to want the reward. $50,000: that’s a lot of money. Three-way split, 30-30-40? It’s only fair I get more: I did die for it."

    "Which birthday do I celebrate? I’ve got two of them now: First day I was alive and first day I was alive again."

    Ned: "It’s for your own safety."
    Chuck: "You sound like my dad."
    Ned: "If my hand brushes yours, you’d be dead."
    Chuck: "He didn’t say that."

    Chuck: "Are you stuck?"
    Emerson: "No!"
    Chuck: "Yes, you are, you’re like Winnie the Pooh! Give me your paws, Pooh."

    Ned: "I liked that you said 'us' ".
    Chuck: "Well, we are an 'us', aren’t we? We’re just an "us" with special circumstances."

    Ned: "Quasimodo would’ve been a lot better off if he’d stayed in his bell tower where it was safe and comfortable and he had his bell." Chuck: "I’m not sure Quasimodo would agree with that: Quasi wanted adventure, Quasi wanted to see the world, Quasi wanted cup-pies!"

    Narrator: "This was clearly a case of … "
    Chuck: " ... Death by scratch ‘n sniff?"

    Ned: "There are no such thing as monsters."
    Chuck: "What about C.H.U.D.? ... Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers." [whispering fearfully] "They feed on the homeless and helpless passer-bys! I hear they’re pack hunters!"

    Chuck & Olive: "Don’t mess with The Pie Ho’s!"
