Lilith Quote #62

Quote from Lilith in I Kid You Not

Lilith: Frasier, I just had a delicious idea. Why don't we buy an extra ticket and take young Lud to the opera with us?
Lilith: Oh, wow, great! But I have to ask my mom. Mommy, Dr. Crane and his wife invited me to go to the opera with them.
Carla: Well, you don't have to be polite. Just tell them to bug off.
Ludlow: But, Mom, I want to go. Please?
Lilith: Carla, may I have a word with you?
Carla: Yeah. Sammy, entertain the kid.
Lilith: Carla, you'd be doing us all a favor. Allowing Frasier and me to spend some time with your son might help us to formulate a decision that's been under much discussion as of late. You see, the two of us are considering whether or not we wish to reproduce.
Carla: You're thinking of having a baby, huh? So, tell me, how long does it take one of your pods to hatch, anyway? Listen, you want to baby-sit Lud, be my guest.

Quote from Cliff

Cliff: Carla's got herself a real Poindexter there, huh? Yeah. It's sad to say that kids not accepted by their peers really never learn how to get along with people in the big grown-up world.
Norm: Why is that, Cliff? 'Cause they keep boring everyone and driving them crazy with long speeches filled with meaningless statistics?
Cliff: Yep, yeah. 63% of them live lives of quiet desperation.
Norm: And how about those who sit next to them?

Quote from Carla

Lilith: So, Carla, tell, tell. Have you bedded any other Rhodes scholars?
Carla: Uh... no. But one egghead, long-distance, phone-in father is enough for this baby factory.
Frasier: In spite of the fact that Dr. Ludlow's work takes him out of the country, I'm sure he's a marvelous parent.
Carla: No, a good parent is someone who's there. Who's there to help them out with their homework. There when they wake up in the middle of the night crying their eyes out. He's there with the bottle of Bactine when they give themselves a bad tattoo. Well, I've been there. I raised eight kids on a waitress's salary, and I want you to know they're all good kids, and not one of them has had a conviction that stood up on appeal.

Quote from Carla

Norm: Carla, look, I know you love your kids and everything... I mean, like your kids. I mean, I know you have kids... But I have never seen you this concerned before.
Carla: Well, Lud's special.
Norm: Yeah?
Carla: Yeah. I mean, whenever I come home at night, he always brings me a pan of hot water for my feet. He actually asks me how my day went. I don't know if I ever told anybody this before... I love him.
Norm: You don't have to be shy about saying that you love your kids.
Carla: Oh, why don't you just take out an ad in the Yellow Pages?
