If you haven't seen any episodes of Louie yet, check them out; they're on Netflix. Trust, you'll be glad you did. Like Seinfeld, but slightly more crass, Louie has bits of Louis C.K.'s stand-up scattered throughout an episode of wonderfully crafted storylines. As writer, director, editor, producer, and star, Louis C.K. is being dubbed as the first real auteur of television. And, lucky you, you get to catch the newest season on FX on May 5, with 14 back-to-back episodes over the following seven weeks.

The show, loosely based on Louis C.K.'s own life, is peppered with the best stand-up comedians in New York City, insightful and deep dialogue, and serious laugh-out-loud comedy. And, in honor of that, we've made a list of some of the best lines from Louie to spread throughout your conversations. You won't regret it—you know, unless the penis jokes make your mom cry or something.
