Jim Parsons, the star of the People's Choice Award winning show "The Big Bang Theory", will turn 42 on 24 March, Tuesday. Parsons is most famous for his role in the CBS sitcom as Sheldon Cooper, a theoretical physicist.

The Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor is doing press runs for his upcoming animated movie "Home", and while Parsons may be too busy to celebrate his birthday, fans can do so by reliving his character Sheldon's best quotes. Being a former child genius, with utter lack of social skills and an inability to understand irony and sarcasm, Sheldon usually gets to say the best lines in "The Big Bang Theory".

Here are some of the best quotes of Sheldon Cooper from all the eight seasons of "The Big Bang Theory".

Leonard: You'll never guess what just happened.
Sheldon: You went out in the hallway, stumbled into an inter-dimensional portal, which brought you 5,000 years into the future, where you took advantage of the advanced technology to build a time machine, and now you're back, to bring us all with you to the year 7010, where we are transported to work at the think-a-torium by telepathically controlled flying dolphins?
Leonard: No. Penny kissed me.
Sheldon: Who would ever guess that?

The Justice League Recombination (Season 4 Episode 11)

The Russian Rocket Reaction (Season 5 Episode 5)

Howard: Someone has to go up with the telescope as a payload specialist and guess who that someone is.

The Decoupling Fluctuation (Season 6 Episode 2)

Sheldon: If you're going to replace Wolowitz, I need to know a little bit more about you.

All right.

I went to art school.
Sheldon:
Equally ridiculous. Let's go.

The Hofstadter Insufficiency (Season 7 Episode 1)

The Expedition Approximation (Season 8 Episode 6)

Raj: Sheldon, you busy?
Sheldon: I'm always busy. This mind is capable of advanced multi-tasking. Currently, I'm attempting to solve the Penrose Conjecture, I'm composing my Nobel acceptance speech for when I've solved the Penrose Conjecture, and I'm wondering how mermaids have babies.
