Legacy from a Friend - S3-E18

Higgins: Certain past indiscretions...Various incriminating lapses noted in my log...
Magnum: Higgins. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that you can tell Robin that he doesn't already know. That we haven't laughed about together.
Higgins: The potato chip heiress from Buffalo who filled the tidal pool with...
Magnum: A little misunderstanding, Higgins, after it was drained.
Higgins: And then there is the Romanian mime troop who...
Magnum: Y-...you're not going to bring that up, I mean, Higgins, you were there when the paramedics arrived! You know!
Higgins: I will take note of the panic in your voice and those guilt-crazed eyes as a scent to my favor, albeit with the slightest reluctance.
Magnum: Wait a minute! This isn't a favor, this is extortion! And blackmail!
Higgins: I prefer to consider it a gentlemen's agreement, though under the circumstances the term is misused.

The Arrow That Is Not Aimed - S3-E13

Magnum: A - ha! You violated my privacy!
Higgins: Nonsense. I was retrieving Mr. Masters' wide-angle lens which you borrowed three weeks ago and typically neglected to return.
Magnum: That doesn't give you the right to remove my possessions!
Higgins: I consider this contraband and therefore subject to confiscation.
Magnum: As long as there are dogs threatening my life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, I will...No, I must, I MUST protect myself! It is my constitutional right!
Higgins: Very well. I will inform Mr. Masters that you feel within your constitutional rights to use dog repellent on the lads.
Magnum: Hey, hey, hey, Higgins! No sense bothering Robin with a little household problem.

No Need to Know - S1-E5

Magnum: [answers the phone sleepily] Hello.
Rick: Are you all right? You sound like my dog that time she got hit by the pineapple truck.
Magnum: Yeah. No. Who is this?
Rick: What do you mean, "Who is this?" How many people do you know that had a dog that was hit by a pineapple truck?

Birdman of Budapest - S3-E15

Higgins: Magnum, l must say, l'm impressed.
Magnum: With my dictionary?
Higgins: No, with your living quarters. They're actually tidy.
Magnum: Don't act so surprised!
Higgins: Where is all the...usual unpleasantness, the abandoned bits of food and drink, the soiled garments, the sundry unidentifiable artifacts l expect to find when l walk in?
Magnum: A-HA! That is precisely my point. You *expect* to walk in. Higgins...l don't walk in on you, do l?
Higgins: Of course you do. All the time, as a matter of fact. But I look upon it as one of life's little unpleasantries, like a minor rash or an ingrown toenail.

Man Overboard: Part 2 - S6-E6

DI Jack Mooney: My grandfather told me a story once, about these two wolves fighting inside all of us. And one of them is anger, envy, self-pity, regret. The other one is love, truth, faith, hope, that sort of thing.
And I asked him "which one of the wolves would win?" And do you know what he said?
"The one you feed."

Martha Lloyd: I agree. We should kiss.
DI Humphrey Goodman: Do you?
