Carla Quote #126
Quote from Carla in Personal Business
Diane: Carla, I have two things to say to you. First, don't you ever do anything like that to me again or you will regret it for the rest of your miserable, little life. And second, would this be a bad time to ask you for a favor?
Carla: For you, there's no good time.
Diane: Well then, I would greatly appreciate it if you would switch schedules with me so that I can have next Tuesday off.
Carla: No!
Diane: Oh, Carla, Oriana Fallaci is giving a speech at Harvard. Come on, please. You've gotta change with me.
Carla: I don't have to do nothing. Before I do a favor for you, I would rather be dragged around town by my tongue.

Quote from Diane
Sam: "Dear Sam. Although my tenure here has been one of value and enlightenment, still..."
Diane: Il faut cultiver notre jardin.
Sam: Come on! First of all, nobody resigns from a bar. And second of all, nobody resigns in Latin.
Cliff: It's French, Sammy.
Coach: What does it mean, Cliff?
Cliff: Well, because of the idiomatic peculiarities, it can't really be translated into English.
Diane: "One must cultivate one's own garden."
Cliff: Oh, oh, oh. Well, Diane, you took some liberties with the derogatory tense there, but I think we'll let it slide this time, huh?
Quote from Carla
Cliff: Carla, what's the matter, sweetheart? Are you all right?
Carla: Don't you see? My life hasn't exactly been a bag of roses, you know. My old man used to beat me. I spent half my childhood in reform school. My husband was a rat who left me with four hungry mouths to feed. But this... makes up for all that. I am the happiest woman alive.
Quote from Coach
Sam: You know, what the hell's this about? Is this because I didn't take your side against Carla?
Diane: No, Sam. The problem with Carla is only a symptom. You see, it's abundantly clear to me that our working together is making our lives miserable and it can only get worse.
Coach: Diane, you just can't leave like that. I mean, we should have a party, you know. Some booze, a lot of pretzels, some munchies, get a lot of people together.
Norm: Coach, you mean kind of like this?
Coach: Well, I guess that's goodbye, Diane.
