Lilith Quote #212

Quote from Lilith in Rat Girl

Lilith: Frasier. Frasier, I owe you an apology. I haven't been myself the past couple of days.
Frasier: No, darling. l, I trivialized your grief. A husband should be supportive. But, please help me. Help me. Meet me halfway. Why were you carrying a moribund rodent in your evening bag?
Lilith: I wasn't going to take him on our date. But I knew if I left him at the lab, they'd have given him to the undergraduates to dissect. I couldn't let that happen to Whitey. I just wanted to give him a decent burial.
Frasier: I'm, I'm so sorry. How could I have been so insensitive?
Lilith: Of course, I overreacted. But I think I know why. I was confronted for the first time with the death of someone close to me.
Frasier: I understand, dear. It's what we call a crisis.
Lilith: I know what we call it, Frasier. The upshot is I've never been more acutely aware of how precious and fragile life is for each of us.

Quote from Lilith

Frasier: Carla, please! Lilith is mourning the loss of a close friend.
Carla: What's the big deal? You go find another rat to hook up to your electrodes.
Lilith: My research never harmed Whitey in any way. In fact, he had everything a rat could want. If he needed it, I gave it to him. That rat was the envy of others.
Frasier: You know, that's true, but I got over it.
Lilith: I miss him so much. [brief, spluttering sobs]
Frasier: Let it out, darling.
Lilith: I am.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Well, darling, I think everyone would agree that existence is tenuous at best. Therefore, all we can do is embrace life. And you and l, we're so fortunate. We, we have a baby, the very symbol of life reborn.
Lilith: Frasier, he's no longer a baby. He'll be going to school in September.
Frasier: Oh, yes, if we can successfully negotiate a preschool interview without slipping into a scene from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? But, darling, you're right. Frederick is getting older. You know there is a way we could renew ourselves yet again.
Lilith: How would we do that?
Frasier: We could have another child.
Lilith: We could, couldn't we? That's a wonderful idea. Oh, Frasier, suddenly, I'm filled with a glow. Let's start right now.
Frasier: It's all so strange. A seemingly insignificant creature lives and dies... a marriage is threatened... a child's education is almost destroyed... yet, somehow, someway, I'm getting some action out of it.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: You know, I'm just a bit stressed today. Lilith and I have been looking for a preschool for Frederick. Tomorrow we've got an interview with the administrators of the Magic Hours Learning Center.
Sam: You know, I don't get that. Now, this is your kid, your money-- why aren't you interviewing them?
Frasier: Well, the beauty of private education, Sam, is that they're able to weed out the unacceptable lowlifes. I just pray I'm not one of them.
Cliff: Wa-wa-wa-wa-wait a second here. Uh, what's the matter with public school? I went to public school.
Frasier: [smiles] I love you, Cliff. Don't ever change.
