Cliff Quote #173

Quote from Cliff in The Mail Goes to Jail

Norm: Get him out of here, Sam. Out of this bar, out of my life for ever.
Cliff: Okay, all right, Normie, look, I'll go. But I want you to remember one thing. I took a chance for you. I confessed and got you out of jail.
Norm: I wouldn't have been in jail if it wasn't for you!
Cliff: All right, I'm sorry about that, Normie. I'm really sorry, but try and understand. Your job's just a job, but being a mailman's my whole identity. I risked my whole world, my entire life, to buy your freedom, because I love you, Norm.
Sam: Oh, come on, Norm, isn't there something Cliff can do?
Diane: [o.s.] Norman, he's right. [Sam points a confused Norm towards the vent] What is your heart telling you?
Sam: Never mind. It's a long story.
Cliff: Goodbye, Norm.

Sam: Yeah, what's wrong with that?

Sam: Coach, can I have my flashlight, please?
Diane: You know, Sam I can't help but noticing that Bambi wasn't the same little deer that you left here with on Friday.
Sam: No, I got rid of Cindy. We weren't compatible.
Diane: Really? What was the problem there?
Sam: Dumb as a post.
Diane: Oh, with so much in common, I can't imagine why you two went awry.
Sam: No, I'm serious. I mean, she just wasn't my intellectual equal.
Diane: You should have said you're looking for an intellectual equal. I could introduce you to something that's growing on my shower curtain.

Quote from Cliff

Norm: How many letters you got left?
Cliff: I don't know. Seven or eight. [eats soup] Boy, this tastes good.
Norm: Hey, these are all on my way home. Let me drop these off for you, Cliffie. I've got to go home anyway.
Cliff: No, Norm, you're not trained. You're not qualified.
Norm: What qualified? You drop them in a slot. A chimp could do it.
Cliff: A chimp? No way. They did a study at the University of Michigan. Chimps were 32% slower. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, they were better with customer relations and everything, but...
