Ross: Watch. (he takes the laptop) Here, you ehm... You highlight the word you want to change. Go under Tools and the Thesaurus generates... 'gives'... 'gives' a whole list of choices. You can pick the word that sounds smartest.
Ross: Oh well, since I have that whole history with Rachel, I guess Phoebe.
Rachel: All right! Ross, do you think its easy for me to see you with somebody else?
ROSS: [on the phone] Woah, woah, woah australopithicus isn't supposed to be in that display. No. No. No, n, homo-habilus was erect, australopithicus was never fully erect.
Ross: We're here!
Ross: Its worth the pain. (She goes to hug him again.) Yknow what, you know what? Its not.

Monica: Ross, can I?
Ross and Joey: No-no-no-no-no. (They start to turn away, but Phoebe stops them, and turns them back to face her.)
Ross: The head, the head. You gotta...
Ross: 59 seconds. (holds up his watch) Quartz, ha.
Ross: You wanna explain that?
Ross: Thanks. (Gets up and as he does so, the sound returns. Without another word he heads into her bathroom.)
Ross: (Mortified) Hi.
Joey: Oh! Maybe they'll name yours after you! Y'know, they'll call it, The Ross. And then people would be like, "Awww, he's got a Ross."
Ross: Hey.
Tour Guide: Im Rhonda, (motions to her breasts) and these arent real! (Joey and Ross look at each other, shocked)
Ross: (Quietly) hey, fella! How you doing?

Ross: Hey, is Rachel here? Um, I wanted to wish her a happy birthday before I left.
Ross: Okay, so I'm gonna be the only one standing there alone when the ball drops?
Ross: Well maybe he'll get to go soon, like on a class trip or something.
Ross: So, uh, this guy, she used to go out with, is, uh is he still in love with her?
Monica: (To Ross) Cassie needs to stay at your place.
Ross: Hi.
Young Monica: (entering the shot) Ross!!! (starts to wipe up the spill)
Ross: No.
Ross: At the coffeehouse, right.

Ross: (sigh)....I have to go to China.
[Scene: Central Perk, Rachel and Phoebe are on the couch as Ross enters.]
Rachel: Ross, I am telling you that she is using you to get back at me!
Ross: I think it means he freaked out and left!
Ross: (turning towards him) Yes Mr. Lewis, how can I help you?
(Phoebe gets up, holds the picture of Ross up to her face.)
Phoebe: You dont have to do that, Ross and Joey arent here, you can watch the parade if you want.
Ross: Um, in Phoebe's room. You can't go in there.
Ross: No wait, okay, okay, I have an idea. I want you to get on the swing, okay? And you'll see that there's nothing to be afraid of.
Ross: Hi. Im uh, Im Ross. I dont, I dont believe weve met. Im Monicas older brother.
Ross: Still, I can't believe that's sprayed on... I mean, it looks really good. I wonder if I should get one!
[Scene: A train to Poughkeepsie, Ross is asleep against the window.]

Yeah, its right-its right down here! In the biggest library in the university! (They start heading that way, towards a secluded section behind the racks.)
Ross: (seeing her) Rach!
Ross: Oh Rach thats great. Thats great. (They hug and Joey breathes a sigh of relief.)
Ross: Even if the sidecar had a windscreen so your hair wouldnt get messed up?
Ross: I'm just so happy you guys are finally getting a kid.
Ross: What?! Hello! We didnt get married.
Ross: Everyone, this is Julie.
Chandler: Ross, I am not gonna run away again! I just want to get a little fresh air.
Ross: The screaming guy?
