Quote from Norm in The King of Beers

Norm: Hey, Mike. Look, if you don't mind, I'm gonna knock off for lunch, okay?
Mike: Yeah, sure. You had a great first week, Norm.
Norm: [laughs] You don't have to tell me, sir. It was the happiest week of my life.
Mike: Here you go, Norm.
Norm: Huh? What's this?
Mike: It's your pay-check.
Norm: Oh, no, sir, I couldn't. No, no, absolutely not, not for this.
Mike: Go ahead, take it!
Norm: Really?
Mike: You've earned it. You know, you were right about that timer being off on number three tank. That's, uh... That's something our computer should have picked up a long time ago.
Norm: Well, sir, a computer can't love.

Quote from Rebecca

Norm: Going a little bit overboard here, aren't you? After all, it's just a silly little machine.
Rebecca: It's not a silly machine, Norman. It is- It is a metaphor for life. It is. Everybody gets to pull the handle, and sometimes they win, and sometimes they lose. But I always lose. I pull the handle, and I get cherry, lemon, [voice breaking] Bell!
Norm: Rebecca, has it ever occurred to you that maybe the reason you always lose is because you think you're going to lose?
Rebecca: Oh, don't give me that crap! I tried that positive thinking stuff, and I knew it wouldn't work, and sure enough, it didn't!

Quote from Rebecca

Rebecca: If I were you, I would be a nervous wreck. You know, I had a shot at my dream job.
Norm: Yeah?
Rebecca: And I- I did really, really well. And then it came time for me to meet the big boss, and I choked. I went in, and- and I complimented him, and then I realized, "Oh, God, I'm kissing up." So I took back the compliment, and then it looked like I was insulting him. So then I started telling jokes, and they were really bad. And then... And- And then, the next thing I knew, I was singing, "Knick knack paddy whack" song. And I was just singing and singing at the top of my lungs. And I just kept burying myself deeper and deeper. And I lost my dream job. And when I walked out of that House of Pancakes, I felt two inches tall.
Norm: Well, Rebecca, that's about the most depressing thing I've ever heard in my life.
