- Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love.
Linus van Pelt
- There's no problem so big you can't run away from it.
- I love humanity - it's people I can't stand.
- I know there is a lesson to be learned here somewhere, but I don't know what it is.
- Lights. (insert Linus' meaning of Christmas speech) That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
Lucy van Pelt
- No matter how hard you try, you can't build a rainman.
- (To Schroeder:) What happens if you practice the piano for 20 years and then end up not being rich and famous?
Schroeder
- (To Lucy:) The joy is in the playing.
Snoopy
- Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There's so little hope for advancement.
