Best Howard Wolowitz Quotes!

Good morning, how is everyone? Doing well I hope. It feels like this week has passed by in a blur and the days have just melded together, as you wouldn’t believe it but quite a bit has happened. Firstly) My nan is out of the hospital and back in her own home (which she is incredibly happy about). Secondly) Isaac, my little nephew ended up at the hospital late Sunday night where he was diagnosed with Croup – an infection of the upper airway, which obstructs breathing and causes a characteristic barking cough. He seems to be doing better now, thankfully, from what my sister has told us, but sending them all a lot of love and get well soon wishes! Thirdly) There have been a few phone calls between my parents (mostly my mum) and some people to do with adapted housing, regarding my wheelchair measurements in order to make our next property easily accessible for me as that hasn’t been the case in the past few years. Those are only a few things that have happened this past week, there have been some other things but I’ve rambled on enough.

On with today’s post which if you haven’t already guessed is the third installment of the best character quotes from The Big Bang Theory … and this week is the turn of an aerospace engineer and former NASA astronaut Howard Wolowitz. Before falling in love and marrying Bernadette, he was a self-proclaimed “horny engineer.” He couldn’t always get the woman he was after but that didn’t stop him from trying. Thankfully, over the course of 12 seasons, we’ve seen Howard grow into a family man; someone who’s entirely dedicated to his wife and children. But that doesn’t mean he lost his sense of humor. Here are some of his best/funniest quotes.

Bernadette: “I’m sorry. That must be really painful for you.”

Howard: “For God’s Sake, Ma, I’m 27 years old. And it’s not even a school night.” (2×1 – The Bad Fish Paradigm)

“We are … see spoons for more.”
Bernadette: “What could it be? “We are Groot?” “We are the champions?” “We are family, I got all my sisters with me?”
Howard: “Are you serious?”
Bernadette: “Yeah.”
Howard: “Are you sure?”
Bernadette: “Pretty positive. That’s a joke because the pregnancy test says-“
Howard: “Oh, my God. This is incredible.
We’re gonna be parents.
We’re gonna get to board planes first.
We’re finally gonna get to see what’s in that family bathroom at the mall.” (9×16 – The Positive Negative Reaction)

Howard: “I need to talk to Bernadette.”
Penny: “Well, I don’t think she wants to talk to anyone right now.”
Howard: “All right, well, could you at least give her a message?”
Penny: “Yeah, sure, I guess.”
Howard: “Tell her I’m really sorry, and if she doesn’t want to marry me, I get it. But what I really want her to know is the guy that she’s disgusted by, is the guy that I’m disgusted by, too. But that guy doesn’t exist anymore, he’s gone, and the reason is because of her. So, if this relationship is over, let her know that she made me a better man, and tell her thank you.” (5×22 – The Stag Convergence)

Baggage Clerk Woman: “I, I wish I was telling you that. Um, but the passenger could’ve gotten on an international flight.”
Howard: “Oh, okay, great. So, your entire job is to find lost luggage, and you’ve narrowed down the location of my mother to the planet Earth!”
Baggage Clerk Woman: “I’m sorry. W-would 500 frequent-flyer miles help? That could get you to Sacramento.” (8×16 – The Intimacy Acceleration)

Howard: [singing to quarantined Bernadette, the other five backing him up]
“If I didn’t have you,
Life would be blue,
I’d be Doctor Who without the TARDIS;
A candle without a wick,
A Watson without a Crick,
I’d be one of my outfits without a dicky.
I’d be cheese without the mac,
Jobs without the Wozniak,
I’d be solving exponential equations that use bases not found on your calculator making them much harder to crack;
I’d be an atom without a bomb,
A dot without the com,
And I’d probably still live with my mom.”
Friends: “And he’d probably still live with his mom.”
Howard: “Ever since I met you, you turned my world around,
You supported all my dreams and all my hopes,
You’re like uranium-235, and I’m uranium-238;
Almost inseparable isotopes,
I couldn’t have imagined how good my life would get,
From the moment that I met you, Bernadette.”
Bernadette: [choked up] “Oh, Howie!”
Howard: “If I didn’t have you,
Life would be dreary,
I’d be string theory without any string,
I’d be binary code without a one,
A cathode-ray tube without an electron gun,
I’d be Firefly, Buffy, and Avengers without Joss Whedon,
I’d speak a lot more Klingon.
Heghlu’meH QaQ jajvam [Klingon for “Today is a good day to die.”]“
Friends: “And he’d definitely still live with his mom.”
Howard: “Ever since I met you, you turned my world around,
You’re my best friend and my lover,
We’re like changing electric and magnetic fields;
You can’t have one without the other,
I couldn’t have imagined how good my life would get,
From the moment that I met you, Bernadette.”
Everyone: “Oh, we couldn’t have imagined how good our lives would get.
From the moment that we met you, Bernadette.” (7×6 – The Romance Resonance)
