I couldn't find a clip, but this is a special moment; 'Penny: Do you think quitting my job was a mistake?
Sheldon: Do you see me drinking lemonade?
Penny: No. I’m serious.
Sheldon: Why do you ask?
Penny: Because Leonard just pissed me off. Am I being an idiot or not?
Sheldon: No, I don’t think you are.
Penny: Really?
Sheldon: The best way to achieve a goal is to devote 100% of your time and energy to it. When I decided I was going to be a physicist, I didn’t take some other job in case it didn’t work out. Which wasn’t easy because there was a lot of pressure from Ms. Pearson for me to be chalk monitor that year.
Penny: Thank you. I needed to hear that. Why can’t Leonard understand it?
Sheldon: Because he’s not like us, Penny. We’re dreamers'(S7e13). I only saw that recently, but it does show another connection between them, they understand and empathise(again Sheldon shows Human side), they are both dreamers, who know what they're both capable of, but reality is conspiring against them. Particularly in the form of A and L, who don't want them to achieve their dreams, partly because they believe they'd escape, and also they'd look bad. A and L are dream crushers!
