Carla Quote #869

Quote from Carla in Death Takes a Holiday On Ice

Gloria LeBec: Wait a minute. I know how to settle any doubts about how Eddie felt about me. Check this out. Eddie's favorite photograph in the whole world, and he gave it to me... Him with his nephews. Don't they look happy?
Carla: These aren't his nephews. These are my kids. Of course they look happy. This was taken on the day they found out they weren't gonna be tried as adults. Wait a minute. Eddie gave you a picture of my kids?
Gloria LeBec: Yeah, and here's the Eastern League Comeback Goalie of the Year plaque, the puck he stopped in the overtime win against the Blackhawks, the tooth he stopped it with. What have you got?
Carla: Not much. I've got a cassette of "O Canada". It was kind of our song... Us and 25 million other Hosers. All right, you proved your point. You win. Why don't you just get out of here, all right?

Quote from Woody

Father Barry: So we, the friends of Edward LeBec, silently, each in his own way, bid him good-bye, secure in the belief... That he will live in eternal peace.
Woody: I think this is a nice service.
Sam: You've been to a lot of them, Wood?
Woody: What do you mean, Sam?
Sam: Just from the size of your family and all the unfortunate things that seem to happen.
Woody: No, no, no, Sam, you've got that wrong. Very few of those people were killed, just maimed. I had an uncle who lived to be 103. He had both ears till he was 101.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Carla, different people deal with the loss of a loved one in different ways. As such, your stoic behavior is quite understandable, but studies in human behavior tell us that we need to grieve. And until we do allow ourselves that emotional release, we can never really get back on the course of life. You see, some people hold in their grief for literally years and years. And all they accomplish is to prolong the grief and the agony, casting a pall over their own remaining days on this earth. [sobs] Oh! Oh, mommy! Mommy, why you? Oh!

Quote from Carla
