Quote from Captain Holt in the episode The Bimbo

Kevin: Fine. Jake is helping me with a burglary here at the university, and I asked him not to tell you.
Captain Holt: Is this about St. Augustine?
Kevin: Yes.
Jake: What's going on?
Captain Holt: He's embarrassed of me. Last Christmas, the classics department threw a holiday party. I had one drink too many and utterly humiliated myself.
[flashback:]
Captain Holt: And that was the point St. Augustine was making in "Consolation of Philosophy."
[present:]
Jake: Yeah, sounds super humiliating, saying something smart.
Captain Holt: Smart? I confused St. Augustine with Boethius. I might as well have stepped on a rake and bonked myself on the forehead.

Quote from the episode Ding Dong

Rosa: [cackles]

Quote from the episode Payback

Amy: Maybe we should talk about deets for the case. Plan our next move. Grab some chow.
Captain Holt: No need. I brought these. Nutrition bricks. I have original no flavor, and whole wheat no flavor.

Quote from the episode The Box

Jake: We have a few more questions for you, doctor.
Captain Holt: Doctor. Huh. It's funny when people call dentists "doctor".
Philip Davidson: We are doctors. We do four years of medical school.
Captain Holt: Yeah, but it's called "dental school".
Philip Davidson: But we learn about the entire body.
Captain Holt: But if you had cancer, you wouldn't call a dentist.
Philip Davidson: You know it's actually harder to get into dental school than medical school.
Captain Holt: Well, because there are fewer dental schools. Because most people want to become actual doctors.
Philip Davidson: That's ridiculous. It's not like we're college professors calling ourselves "doctors".
Captain Holt: Not the same thing, my friend.
Philip Davidson: Well, sure it is. When someone has a heart attack on a plane, do they yell out, "Yo, does anybody here have an Art History PhD?"
Captain Holt: A PhD is a doctorate. It's literally describing a doctor.
Jake: Maybe let's refocus.
Captain Holt: No! The problem here is that medical practitioners have co-opted the word "doctor".
Jake: Okay, Captain-
Captain Holt: I know we live in a world where anything can mean anything, and nobody even cares about etymolo-
[cut to outside, Holt downing a glass of water]
Captain Holt: Apparently that's a trigger for me.
Jake: Yeah, apparently.

Kevin: Oh, who gives a rat's ass about Boethius, Wesley?
Captain Holt: What are you doing, Kevin?
Kevin: I am creating a kerfuffle.
Jake: Oh, damn.
Kevin: Sure, my husband is a hot piece of ass, but he is so much more than just that.

Quote from Jake

Jake: I'm here! I'm here, I'm here. You can start the meeting now.

Jake: Maybe you should just give up and accept me for who I am?
Captain Holt: No, I will break you. Right now.
Jake: Oh.

Jake: What? No, no, no. The copy guy?
