Cliff Quote #255

Quote from Cliff in Cliffie's Big Score

Cliff: Diane, look, I'm sorry. You don't understand. I don't know what happened to me tonight. The wine must have gone to my head, Diane. Look, you know I hold you in the highest respect and esteem, and I would never, ever do anything to upset you.
Diane: Well, running out of gas? Really!
Cliff: Well, we did run out of gas, Diane.
Diane: Clifford.
Cliff: Well, look, would a sign from God convince you?
Diane: Maybe.
Cliff: All right. Almighty God... please, if I'm telling the truth about this car running out of gas tonight, let it start now, even on an empty tank. [Cliff turns the ignition] Diane, hallelujah! Oh, hallelujah! Diane! [Diane drives off without him] Oh, hey!

Quote from Sam

Woody: [answers phone] Cheers. Yes, ma'am, right away. [to Carla] There's some lady screaming her head off.
Carla: What does she want?
Woody: I don't know. All I could make out was "two-timing."
Carla: Sam, telephone. Woody, listen up and learn something.
Sam: [takes the phone] Sammy here. Oh, hey, I thought you'd like those flowers. Yeah. No, no, that sounds like my note. "Thanks for a wonderful evening, Barbara. I had a great time." Well, of course I know your name's Karen. You know, hey, I see your mistake here. You see, you didn't realize that, to me, Barbara means Karen. Well, because... Because... Because "Barbara" reminds me of Barbra Streisand, and you know that song about people? Well, I am getting to it. You know the line, "First be a person who needs people"? Well, who was the first person? Yeah, all right, but the first female person was Eve. And who's the most famous Eve of all, but Christmas Eve, right? Yeah, well, what do you do on Christmas Eve, but you go caroling. Right? No, I know, your name's not Carolyn. But after you go caroling, what you do is, you Karen the gifts. Karen. Yeah. Well, apology accepted, sweetheart. I'll talk to you later.

Quote from Sam

Sam: Come on. Obviously, it means a lot to him. All he wants to do is be seen with a classy-looking chick.
Diane: Oh, I don't know, Sam. Look at all the people who've fallen hopelessly in love with me, with only the slightest encouragement. You, Frasier...
Sam: Yourself.
