- "You think this is hard? Try filling your own cavity, that's hard!" (Episode 1: Pilot)
- Sue: "See, now what you're doing here is called blurring the lines. High school is a caste system and kids fall into certain slots. Now, you have your jocks and your popular kids up in the penthouse. Your invisibles and kids playing online trolls and creatures, bottom floor." Will: "So where do the Glee kids lie?" Sue: "Sub-basement." (Episode 1: Pilot)
- "Lady Justice wept today." (Episode 2: Showmance)

- "It is my strong suggestion these two students be hobbled." (Episode 2: Showmance)

- Will: "Are you threatening me?" Sue: "Threatening you? Oh no, no, no, no. Giving you a chance to compromise yourself? You betcha! Let's break it down. You want to be creative, you want to be in the spotlight. Face it. You want to be me! So here's the deal. You do with your depressing little group of kids what I did with my wealthy, elderly mother. Euthanize it! It's time, and I'll be happy to offer you a job as my second assistant on Cheerios. You can fetch me Gatorade, launder my soiled delicates. It'd be very rewarding work for you." (Episode 2: Showmance)
- "This is what we call a total disaster, ladies. I'm going to have to ask you to smell your arm pits... That's the smell of failure. And it's stinking up my office!" (Episode 3: Acafellas)

- "I'll often yell at homeless people: 'Hey, how is that homelessness working out for you? Try not being homeless for once.'" (Episode 4: Preggers)
- "God, it feels good to finally pop that zit known as Will Schuester."
- "Oh, I know the Dutch are famous for being a cold people but that’s no excuse for treating you like some half-priced hooker in Amsterdam’s famous red-light district."
- "Are these your droopy white granny panties, Jacob? Are you an Eve who was born a Steve? Because if you are, I think there’s a special school that would better address your needs. And I think that school is in Thailand."
- "Schuester! Yeah? I'll need to see that set list for Sectionals after all, and I want it on my desk, warm from the laminator at 5:00 p.m. And if it is one minute late, I will go to the animal shelter and get you a kitty cat. I will let you fall in love with that kitty cat, and then, on some dark, cold night, I will steal away into your home and punch you in the face." Episode 8: Mash-Up
- "If I have a pregnant girl doing a handspring into a double layout, the judges aren't going to admire her impeccable form, they're going to be wondering if the centrifugal force is going to make the baby's head start crowning." Episode 9: Wheels
- “If there’s anything on that list that involves demeaning, fruity hair tossing, I’m cutting it!” Episode 10: Hairography
- "Never let anything distract you from winning. Ever." Episode 10: Hairography
