David Hyde Pierce: Dr. Niles Crane

Quotes 

• [Martin pretends to be Niles's boyfriend to fend off a gay man's advances] 

  Frasier : I have never been so embarrassed in my life.

  Niles : You're embarrassed? They think the best I can do is an old man with a cane.

• Niles : May your opera box be full of cellophane crinklers and a stage swarming with stand-bys.

• [Martin is pretending to be gay] 

  Frasier : So, Niles, actually, you missed a splendid evening at the opera.

  Niles : Well, maybe I can catch it this weekend with Mel.

  Martin : Oh, and who's Mel?

  Niles : Damn you and your jealous questions! You don't own me.

• [Niles cancels his night at the opera with Frasier to spend the evening with Mel] 

  Frasier : I am surprised by your gall! At the last moment, you not only bail on me, you expect me to give up my own ticket?

  Niles : Please, Frasier, put yourself in my shoes. I have to do something for Mel. Every restaurant in town has been booked for weeks. I ran into Archie Wilfong today. He told me he had to settle for two seats at the counter at The Salad Experience! What would you suggest I do?

  Frasier : Bring your own wine and order the Spicy Caesar!
