Mary Quote #166

Quote from Mary in Paranoid Dick

Mary: I'd never been in trouble until he came along. But he has this way of talking, see, when you know he's crazy, but you just can't help but listen to him. And all of a sudden, you find yourself doing things you never thought you'd do. Bad things, stupid things. And where is he now? Free as a bird. While I'm in here taking the fall.
Lorraine: We know how you feel.
Ginger: Yeah. You need a new pimp.
Mary: Pimp? I'm not a hooker. I'm a professor.
Ginger: Hmm. Too bad. You could make a nice living.
Mary: Thank you.

Quote from Dick

Mary: The chancellor. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear he was avoiding me.
Dick: Why would he be avoiding you? You're the Dean. And you've done an exemplary job.
Mary: You think so?
Dick: Yes. You've done nothing offensive. You haven't caused a single ripple on the pond. No controversial proposals, no expensive cutting-edge teachers, no "innovative" ideas to shake up the status quo. You've been almost invisible.
Mary: Well, I did institute those slanted parking spaces in the faculty lot.
Dick: Yeah, and no one cared. Oh, come on, Mary, you've lasted six months in a job that none thought you could keep and even fewer thought you deserved.

Quote from Dick

Dick: Oh, what a couple of fools we've been, Mary.
Mary: Oh, no, Dick, I was the bigger fool. If I'd just had more confidence in myself, I wouldn't have gotten into this jam.
Dick: No, Mary, I was the bigger fool. If I hadn't been so suspicious of everyone, things would never have gotten this crazy.
Mary: No, Dick, I was the bigger fool. I got caught.
Dick: No, Mary, I was the bigger- No, wait. You were the bigger fool.
Mary: Promise me one thing, Dick. The next time the world gets all topsy-turvy and I start acting crazy again, do me a favor, will you? Slap some sense into me? [Dick slaps Mary] I said next time.
