How I Met Your Mother2005

Robin Scherbatsky:
You okay?

Ted Mosby:
What if I don't think of the books? Excuse me? There's this famous architecture story about an architect who designed this library. It was perfect. But every year, the whole thing would sink a couple inches into the ground. Eventually, the building was condemned. He forgot to account for the weight of the books. This company it's just me. What if I don't think of the books?

Robin Scherbatsky:
Okay first of all, nobody goes to libraries anymore, so who cares about that guy? Secondly, you need to get on the phone and start calling clients.

Ted Mosby:
The longer I put off starting my own firm, the longer it can remain a dream and not something I screwed up at. I mean, it's like I'm giving up before I even started.

Robin Scherbatsky:
You want to talk about giving up? I used to describe my ideal guy as "funny, smart, passionate, challenging". And now, apparently, I will settle for "in my apartment".
