Sam Quote #413
Quote from Sam in King of the Hill
Sam: What's your problem?
Diane: Well, I'm trying to share something very painful. And you keep cutting me off.
Sam: I was talking about my dad.
Diane: Well, I was going to tell you about the time I stayed home from the prom.
Sam: You interrupted my dad's story for that?
Diane: Well, what more was there? He didn't like your toast.
Sam: Fine, fine. Tell me all about your little dance story. This doesn't have have anything to do with mice and glass slippers, does it?
Diane: I assure you the details of my prom story would make your dad story look like self-pitying tripe.
Sam: Okay, all right. Right now I'm going to admit that I'm a very competitive person. But you know something that just occurred to me? You know why our relationship never worked? Because you always had to have the last say. You always had to be on top and you're still doing it. You know, you are just as competitive as I am.
Diane: Me? [scoffs] I'm not competitive. I'm intense. And strong-willed. But I think that mindless games and contests are very destructive and diminish the human spirit.

Quote from Coach
Lenny: Hi. Is Sam Malone here?
Coach: No, he isn't. What can I buy from you? What am I saying? What can I get you?
Lenny: Well, I'll have a beer. Say, my name is Lenny Barnes. I'm the publicist for the Chamber of Commerce charity softball game this Saturday. I'm looking for Sam Malone.
Coach: No, I can tell you right now, Lenny. He wouldn't be interested in that kind of thing. I mean, nobody with any dignity wants to get into those sideshow carnival things, where everybody's made to look stupid. Nobody.
Lenny: Hey, aren't you Ernie Pantusso?

Lenny: Yeah, the old memories come back?
Coach: No, I keep getting the wrong bus. I must have an old schedule.
Lenny: Wow, I guess those stories about you are true.
Coach: That they are, Lenny. That they are.
Quote from Norm
Steve: Hey, Norm, your car's unlocked. Someone might steal your laundry.
Norm: What laundry?
Steve: That big, lumpy bundle on the front seat of your car.
Norm: Oh, that's my mother-in-law. She had kind of a rough flight and she nodded out the second she hit the upholstery.
Diane: And you left her out there in an unattended automobile?
Norm: I threw a blanket over her and I left her a note in case she comes to.
Diane: She's lucky to have you as a son-in-law, Norman.
Norm: Yeah. I give her the red-carpet treatment, I guess. [hands bar nuts to a passing man] Hey, pal. Could you do me a favor and toss these in the blue Civic out in front?
