TV Quote of the Day (‘Seinfeld,’ In Which George Connects Hopelessness With Attractiveness)

George Costanza: “I mean it's gotten to the point where I'm flirting with operators on the phone. I almost made a date with one.”

Jerry Seinfeld: “Oh, so there's still hope.”

George: “I don't want hope. Hope is killing me. My dream is to become hopeless. When you're hopeless, you don't care, and when you don't care, that indifference makes you attractive.”

Jerry: “Oh, so hopelessness is the key.”

George: “It's my only hope.”— Seinfeld, Season 3, Episode 16, “The Fix Up,” original air date Feb. 5, 1992, teleplay by Elaine Pope and Larry Charles, directed by Tom Cherones
