Happy birthday, Judy Sheindlin! The TV judge turns 74 on October 21, 2016.
Since the debut of her Emmy-winning courtroom show in 1996, Judge Judy has amused fans—though maybe not the people she cuts down to size in court—with her acerbic, no-nonsense quips and comebacks.
Here are some of Judge Judy’s funniest one-liners on honesty, stupidity, and being the boss.
1. “Beauty fades. Dumb is forever.”
2. “I don’t want you, or anybody else, to think I’m stupid. Old, maybe; stupid, never.”
3. “Don’t get too comfortable. This case is not going to take long.”

7. “That’s going to be the most expensive curse word you ever said!”
8. “Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining.”
9. “I am not going to ask you to leave. But, the next time you come into my courtroom, dress more appropriately. You are not going to a beach party.”
10. “I’m the boss, Applesauce.”
