Dick Quote #1060

Quote from Dick in Paranoid Dick

Dick: Funny thing. I was thinking about what you and Chancellor Stevens were discussing this morning. You know about the, um, the, uh... What were you talking about again?
Judith: I'm sorry. That was a private conversation.
Dick: Yeah, of course it was. [Judith puts a document away] I- I understand. By the by, Jude - and I call you Jude because we're so close - Mary and I have had a falling out. We're over. And I'd like to get a good plot going against her. Got anything on that?
Judith: Dick, I have a class.
Dick: No, you don't.
Judith: Okay, just leave.
Dick: Tell me what's going on between you and the chancellor and I will never set foot in your office again.
Judith: Fine. You know Chancellor Stevens' annual Badger Day address?
Dick: [chuckles] Oh, that insipid yawn fest?
Judith: I write them for him.
Dick: Last year's was tremendous. You might want to trim about an hour out of it this time. Oh, hey, Jude. Gotta go. I'll see you later.

Quote from Mary

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.

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.
