Sam Quote #231
Quote from Sam in Manager Coach
Diane: Sam, this is serious. Everybody knows that there can be a lot of pressure in children's baseball. The parents take it very seriously. Oh, I'm afraid they'll take somebody as gentle and guileless as the Coach and eat him alive.
Sam: You're kidding me. He's been in the big leagues. This is not gonna be pressure for him.
Diane: No, no. Wait a minute. He was working for somebody else. He was never the boss. I'm telling you, I can't get rid of this feeling something's wrong.
Sam: Hey, Diane, you can have your feelings, but this is... This is guy's stuff. I mean, there's a male bond that happens between men that women just don't understand. Hey, sweetheart. Sweetheart. This is part of me that is private and you're gonna have to stay away from. So hands off, no trespassing, end of discussion. Really.
Diane: Very well. And from now on, there's a part of me that's hands off to you.
Sam: Just my luck, it'll be one of the parts I care about.

Quote from Norm
Norm: A loan application?
Cliff: That's right. It's a loan we're talking about, not a hand-out.
Norm: I don't want this kind of humiliation, all right? I mean, I wouldn't be asking for this unless I really needed it.
Cliff: All right, Norm, I gotcha. Just kidding around here.
Norm: This is gonna go a long way to pay a lot of bills. You know, I really should think of something nice for Vera, too.
Cliff: Hey, Norm, how about a candlelit dinner for two?
Norm: Great. Come on. We'll talk about Vera later.
Quote from Carla
Carla: Where do you stand on breast-feeding?
Sam: As I recall, I liked it.
Carla: No. I mean me with my baby in here.
Sam: Well, Carla, I guess it's cheaper than a piano player.
Carla: Look, Sammy, I'm just tired of having to run home to feed her all the time during my shift. I should have done like I did with all my other kids.
Sam: You mean you didn't breast-feed the other four?
Carla: Nah, they went right to raw meat.
Quote from Coach
Sam: How about doing the honors?
Coach: Sure. Fellas, this is Sam Mayday Malone. Probably the greatest relief pitcher baseball ever knew. Then he hit the bottle and he was through in less than a year. Remember that.
