Fry is the main character in Futurama. He was accidentally frozen on December 31, 1999, and came to life a thousand years later. Character wise, to say Fry was an underachiever is an understatement...

Lyrics- "To The Moon And Back" by Savage Garden
(This was originally for the Leela page, but I figured this could easily be from Fry's point of view *about* Leela.)She's taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles
and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about
the bitter one
They're saying "Mamma never loved her much"
And "Daddy never keeps in touch
That's why she shies away from human affection"
But somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And now she's waiting for the right
kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
I would fly to the moon and back if
you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world were we belong
So would you be my baby?
She can't remember a time when
she felt needed
If love was red then she was color blind
All her friends they've been tried for treasons
And crimes that were never defined
She's saying, "Love is like a barren place,
And reaching out for a human faith
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for"
So baby's gonna take a dive and
Push the shift to overdrive
Send a signal that she's hanging
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
I would fly to the moon and back if
you'll be...
If you'll be my baby
Got a ticket for a world were we belong
so would you be my baby?~ Writin'Chica2K
Favorite quotes:
"Hello? Pizza delivery for...I.C. Weiner? Crud, I always thought by this point in my life I'd be the one making the crank calls."
Fry: This is awesome! Are we gonna fly through space fighting monsters and teaching alien women to love?
Prof. Farnsworth: If by that you mean transporting cargo? Then yes!Fry: I betch Leela's holding out for a nice guy with one eye.
Bender: That'll take forever. What she oughta do is find a nice guy with two eyes then poke one out.
Fry: Yeah, that'd be a time saver.Leela: Fry, you're wasting your whole life sitting in front of that tv. You need to get out and see the world.
Fry: But this is HDTV. It's got better resolution than the real world.Fry: Well, you guys might both be losers, but I just made out with that radiator woman from the radiator planet.
Leela: Fry, that's a radiator.
Fry: Oh... Is ther a burn ward within ten feet of here?Prof. Farnsworth: And lad, all you need is a brain.
Scarecrow Fry: Why does everyone keep saying that?"My god...it's the future! My parents...my co-workers...my girlfriend...I'll never see any of them again...Yahoo!!"
"It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched tv. But then the winter came and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. And also, he got a race car! Is any of this getting through to you?"
"That was the saltiest thing I ever tasted, and I once ate a big heaping bowl of salt!"
Fry: I wanna cry, but I'm just too macho."
Bender: I'll make you cry, buddy. You're a pimple on society's ass and you'll never amount to anything!
Fry: Whaddaya mean? I was emperor of a whole planet.
Bender: Good point....but here's a disturbing reminder! Everyone you knew or loved in the 20th century is dead!
Fry: These things happen.
Bender: Grr...ok, Fry. Grab a kleenex for this one, cause there's no God and your idiotic human ideals are laughable!
Fry: Phew! That's a load off my mind.Fry: You know what I like best about you, Umbriel? You find me fascinating even when I'm not claiming to be a jewel thief or a lion tamer.
Umbriel: Lions? There are sea lions on the land?
Fry: Yep. We call them land sea lions. I tame them."There were plenty of times in my century when I was gonna give up, but I never did. Never! Hey, are you even listening to me? Oh, I give up."
Fry: Hey, you have no right to criticize the 20th century. We gave the world the light bulb, the steamboat, and the cotton gin.
Leela: Those things are all from the 19th century.
Fry: Yeah, well, they probably just copied us."Wait a second! I'm getting an idea! No, false alarm. No, yeah, no, yeah, no, wait, no, yeah, yeah, no, no...yes!"
"Poor Bender, you're seeing things. You've been drinking too much, or too little, I forget how it works with you. Anyway, you haven't drunk exactly the right amount."

Here are some of my favorite quotes of Fry from the episode "Insane In The Mainframe":
Fry: (after being threatened by Roberto in court) "I refuse to testify on the grounds that my organs will be chopped up into a meat patty."
Judge Whitey: "Ah, the 67th Amendment..."Fry: (inside the box with Bender) "Ow, my head! Ow, my feet! Ow, my head! Oh, my feet!"
Prof. Farnsworth: "Keep your chin up!"
Fry: "Ow, my chin!"Nurse Ratchet: "Fry, let me tell you about your roommate... His name is Malfunctioning Eddie."
Fry: "The car dealer?? Wow, I guess his prices really WERE insane.""I do other human stuff... I age!"
Bender: "Whoa, somebody didn't get enough sleep last night..."
Fry: "My roommate exploded in front of me! Oh, you've got to help me, Bender. How can I prove to them that I'm a human?"
Bender: "You can drop dead; that'll show 'em."
Fry: "I don't wanna!""But I'm not a robot like you! I hate having disks crammed into me! Unless they're Oreos...and they're only in my mouth! Don't you get it? I'm going to die here!"
"You guys gotta help me out... I would've starved to death if not for that sick vending-machine robot!"
Doctor Percepticon: "You are being released."
Fry: "Finally! Sweet justice! Sweet, juicy justice!"
Doctor Percepticon: "Not you... (points to Malfunctioning Eddie) Him.""I'm not a robot! I'M NOT A ROBOT!!! WAAAAAUUUUGGGHH!!!"
Fry: (acting like a robot) "Oh, you poor sad human!"
(Fry throws Hermes' calculator into the incinerator.)
Hermes: "Sacred hog of Prague! That was my anniversary gift from LaBarbara!"
Fry: "Fear not, for I shall assist ye."
Hermes: "Robots don't say 'ye'!"
Fry: "Relax, mammal. My high-functioning software will meet your calculatory needs. (looks at Hermes' paper) What is the meaning of this symbol?"
Hermes: (takes the paper away from Fry) "That's a plus sign, you pointy-haired looney! Now quit thinking you're a robot!"
Fry: (slyly) "I'll show ye..."Fry: "Halt, fellow robot!"
Roberto: "Hey, Red... You're just in time to join the hostage situation! Which side you wanna be on??"
Fry: "The side that kicks your twisted, metal *ss!"~ Casey Decker
Favorite scenes:
[{Anthology of Interest II-"Wizzin' "}]
(Leela walks down the road and passes a scarecrow in a field that looks like Fry. A crow lands on some corn.)
Fry: Okay crow, prepare to be scared! (He gets out Stephen King's Christine and starts reading.) And then, "Honk honk"! The car honked its own horn!
Leela: Wow, a talking scarecrow! Wanna come with us to see the Professor? He might be able to give you a brain.
Fry: Hey, that's not a nice thing to say!
[{When Aliens Attack}]
(Back in 1999, Fry is making a delivery to a TV station.)
Fry: Pizza delivery! Wow, so this is a real TV station, huh?
TV Guy: Well, it's a FOX affiliate.
Fry: What are you showing right now?
TV Guy: "Single Female Lawyer". It's the season finale. You wanna watch?
Fry: Aww, I dunno. That's a chick show. I prefer programs of the genre"World's Blankiest Blanks".
TV Guy: She is wearing the world's shortiest skirt.
Fry: I'm in!
(While watching, Fry knocks a can of beer on to the controls and everything gets messed up.)
TV Guy: Oh my God! You knocked FOX off the air!
Fry: Pfft, like anyone on earth cares.~ Dramagirl 1990
