Quote from Lucille in Whistler's Mother
Michael: Listen. I'm sorry about yesterday. It was a moment of weakness. Now l- I gotta go into this board meeting. I'm just gonna tell them the truth. If this guy Jordan wants to try to get me fired, then maybe I deserve it. Lucille: He's gone. We bought out his shares. Michael: With what? Lucille: With the money you tried to spend on that lemon grove. Michael: You got it back. How? [Lucille hugs Michael and shushes him] You know about what I was saying about how people outlive their usefulness? That was out of line. Lucille: I know. But you made a good point. Maybe I do need something to occupy my time, other than my children. Michael: Well, if you do want to spend it together, it's fine with me. Lucille: I'm so glad to hear that. [Michael kisses his mother on the cheek] All right. Let's get this meeting started. Why have we been spending so much money on whistles?
