Cliff Quote #811

Quote from Cliff in Sunday Dinner

Norm: Cliff, you've got to tell them.
Cliff: It's not my fault the guy took 50 years to tell his kids he loved them. I mean, what kind of father is that anyway? All right, so there was one moment in the whole thing. Big whoops. I mean, you know, with all the drinking and yelling, nobody's gonna remember anything.
Marine: [enters] Grandma! Grandpa! I flew 34 hours in a marine cargo plane to get here. But it's worth it all just to say, "Happy Anniversary, I love you!" [gasping, applause]
Grandma: Oh, Terry, my baby boy!
Peter: Thank God we're getting this on tape!
Norm: [sotto voce] Yeah, thank God.
Grandpa: My God, Terry. They wouldn't tell us if you were alive or dead.
Marine: There's one thing that kept me alive. I was thinking about coming home to you.
Grandma: Oh!
Norm: All right, Cliff, come on. What are we gonna do here? You got to tell them. All right, look, look everybody. My boss here has an announcement to make.
Cliff: Uh, yeah, everybody. I've got to go on my break. My assistant will take over.
Norm: All right, now, let's, uh, squeeze in tight everybody.

Quote from Woody

[on answering machine:]
Woody: Hi, this is Cheers. Well, it isn't actually Cheers, it's Woody Boyd. Cheers is actually the bar, and as such, it couldn't be expected to talk.
Sam: Woody, start again.
Woody: Why? I'm doing fine. Anyway, uh, there's no one here to take your call right now. Well, actually, if you called right now, we could take your call, but if you call when you're...
Sam: Woody, would you cut it out? It's sounding stupid.
Woody: I am not. W-W-Why do you always treat me like I don't know what I'm doing?
Sam: It sounds stupid, Woody.
Woody: It does not. [machine beeps]
Woody: Hi, Sam, this is Woody. Uh, I guess you were right. It does sound stupid. I'll change it tomorrow.
