Cliff Quote #331

Quote from Cliff in Never Love a Goalie, Part 2

Cliff: Hey, uh, I don't know if you guys have the same feeling I do, but I think it is just more than a coincidence that Eddie LeBec's, uh, bad run started when he began dating Carla. I say she's a jinx.
Sam: Oh, come on; hey, don't say that. I mean, Carla's finally found someone she really likes.
Norm: But what else could it possibly be, Sam?
Sam: Aw, it's ridiculous. I- I don't believe in that. Yeah, hey, Frasier, come here. Listen, tell these guys, will you, that there's nothing to the idea that Carla might be jinxing Eddie.
Frasier: Well, Sam, technically, there is no such thing as a jinx, unless someone thinks there is. Now, we know that Eddie's very superstitious. If he believes that Carla's a jinx, I'm afraid it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Sam: All right, so Carla's a jinx. What are we going to do about it?
Cliff: Well, I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I am not going to let that woman kiss me.
Norm: Yeah, right. Like there's a real danger of that happening.

Cliff: Hey, I can tell you an interesting thing about slumps, too. Uh, statistics show that they can be grouped into four categories.
Norm: Yeah?
Cliff: Yeah, that's right. Uh, 65 percent physical, yeah, 17 percent emotional, 15 percent psychological and, uh, three percent dental.
Norm: Cliffie, you know something, man? You're a walking encyclopedia.
Cliff: Oh, thank you, Normie.
Norm: Unfortunately, you're also a talking encyclopedia.

Quote from Woody

Woody: Sam, I don't understand. Why does Carla want Eddie to screw up?
Sam: [sighs] Well, you see, if Eddie loses, then Carla wins, because it proves she's no longer a jinx. But if he wins, then Carla loses, 'cause it reinforces the jinx theory.
Woody: Ah, the old "boy loses, girl wins, boy wins, girl loses" jinx reinforcement theory. If I've seen it once, I've seen it...
