Nick Tortelli Quote #24
Quote from Nick Tortelli in If Ever I Would Leave You
Carla: Just how dumb do you think I am, huh? She kicks you out and you expect me to believe that you're a sweet, humble guy that wants to do right by me?
Nick Tortelli: It's true, Carla. What would it take to convince you?
Carla: Forget it.
Nick Tortelli: Wait. [lights a match and sets his drink on fire] Here, I'm going to hold my hand over this flame until you believe my sincerity.
Carla: Go ahead. I happen to be fond of the smell of roast pig.
Norm: Oh, yuck, he's going to do it.
[Nick raises his hand above the glass, albeit at arm's length from the flame]
Nick Tortelli: Say you believe me and end my torment.
Norm: Say, Nick, shouldn't you be putting it a little closer down to the flame?
Nick Tortelli: What, are there rules to this? It's plenty warm up here where it is.
Carla: Nick, you're roach droppings. I never want to see you again in my life.

‘If Ever I Would Leave You’ Quotes
Quote from Sam
Norm: Sammy, when's the Coach gonna get back from visiting his sister?
Sam: Uh, he'll be in Minnesota at least another week.
Cliff: Is his sister anything, you know, like the Coach?
Sam: Let me put it this way. He asked her to pick him up at the airport. She thought he meant the Boston airport so she drove all the way here to pick him up. Fortunately, that's what he meant. They had lunch at the airport. Then they drove on to St. Paul.
Cliff: Wait. Uh, I thought she lived in Duluth, there.
Sam: She does, but they don't like the food at the airport in Duluth. You know, actually, Coach will probably be back before I could explain this to you.
Quote from Nick Tortelli
Diane: Oh, Nick Tortelli, this is someone with whom you have absolutely nothing in common, my paramour, Dr. Frasier Crane.
Nick Tortelli: Uh, doctor of what? Can you get any pills?
Frasier: I'm a psychiatrist. Uh, have we met? You wouldn't by any chance be the bogus missing link exhibited at the Amsterdam World's Fair?
Nick Tortelli: No, but you're not the first person who asked me. I wish I had done something like that. Maybe my life would be worth something.
Quote from Cliff
Nick Tortelli: Well, she ran out on me. You see, she always wanted to be a singer. She got an offer from this big musical group that's touring the country. The Grinning Americans.
Frasier: The grinning what?
Cliff: Well, they're a group of wholesome young people, who wear, you know, pullover sweaters, sing patriotic songs. You know, they've had me and Ma marching around the living room on more than one Sunday afternoon, I can tell you.
Frasier: Cliff. You live with your mother, Cliff?
Cliff: I have my own room. I have my own hot plate. You want to read something sicko into that?
