Cliff Quote #261

Quote from Cliff in The Peterson Principle

Norm: You guys all think that this is a bad idea for me to use this information?
Diane: Of course we do.
Cliff: Not everybody. You know, Norm, this Morrison is an adulterer and shouldn't be allowed to prosper by it. Now, if we let this type of un-American activity go unchecked, before you know it, our leaders will be in chains, our women will be learning how to shot put, and all we vital American males will be force-fed borscht along with generous helpings of Das Kapital.
Woody: That's not those fish eggs, is it?
Cliff: No, but it smells as bad.
Woody: Well, then you tell them Woody Boyd says nyet.
Cliff: Attaboy, Woody.

Norm: [on the phone] Hi, Vera. Listen, honey, no point beating around the bush here. I didn't get the promotion. In fact, I just got so mad at the guy, I just went ahead and quit. Yeah. Yes. Yes, they did, they gave me a reason, hon. They said that... Well, what they said was, I'm just not the right man for the job, you know. You just face it, honey, I'm a loser. I don't know why you just don't go just pack up your bags and leave me. Hello? That's very funny. That's cute. Listen, sweetie. There's something I have to tell you. Even on a terrible day like today, I feel like I'm the luckiest man in the world, because I married you. I don't know. I've had two, three, maybe. I'll talk to you later. Yeah. [hangs up]
