Quotes 

• Fry : So let me get this straight. This planet is completely uninhabited?

  Bender : No, it's inhabited by robots.

  Fry : Oh, kinda like how a warehouse is inhabited by boxes.

• Bender : I like it here. I have wealth, fame, and access to the depths of sleaze that those things bring.

• Fry : [sees Bender addressing a robot mob]  It's him! He's okay.

  Bender : Death to humans!

  Fry : Ah, it's good to hear his voice.

• Bender : Admit it, you all think robots are just machines built by humans to make their lives easier.

  Fry : Well, aren't they?

  Bender : I never made anyone's life easier, and you know it!

• Bender : You humans are afraid of a little robot competition. You would never let a robot on the field.

  Fry : What are you talking about? I see plenty of robots out there.

  Bender : Yeah, doing crap work. Robots are only working as bat boys, ball polishers and sprinkler systems. But how many robot managers are there?

  Fry : Eleven?

  Bender : Zero!

  [Throws a bottle on the ground; a robot cleans it up] 

  Bender : And look who's cleaning up the crap! A human child? I wish!

• Bender : The fact is, humans are completely harmless.

  Blue Elder : We're well aware of that.

  Bender : You are?

  Blue Elder : Of course. But they're useful to us as a scapegoat to distract the public from their real problem.

  Green Elder : Like our crippling lug nut shortage.

  Orange Elder : And a corrupt government of incompetent Robot Elders.

  Yellow Elder : Duh, that's for sure.

  Blue Elder : Quiet, Jimmy.

  Bender : Well, I'm glad we got all that out in the open. We'll just let ourselves out.

• Bender : Your basic human is between three and twenty-five feet tall, and is mostly composed of an oily goo wrapped in a t-shirt.

  Robot : Is it true that they bite you on the neck to drain your transmission fluid, and then you become human yourself?

  Bender : Sure, why not?

• Bender : Oh, sure. Let the robot do all the work.

  Leela : Bender, this is the first actual work you have been asked to do.

  Bender : Well, I can't do it. It so happens tomorrow is a robot holiday.

  Fry : Really? Which one?

  Bender : Only Robanukah, the two holiest weeks in the robot calendar.

  Leela : Last week it was Robamadan, and the week before that, Robanzaa.

  Fry : Man, that one was a blast.

  Bender : I was not just a blast. It was a celebration of the accomplishments of my past prototypes, which just happened to take the form of a drinking contest.
