Quote from Esther Clavin in Money Dearest
Cliff: Ma you okay?
Esther Clavin: I'm fine. I just was gonna straighten up in here a little.
Cliff: You don't have to do that, Ma.
Esther Clavin: No, I want to. Oh, will you look at the rings on this table. Don't people use coasters anymore?
Cliff: Ma... Whenever you're trying to hide something inside, you always pick up some household chore to do. Now, I don't know if you realize it, but since Fitz passed away, you you haven't cried, you you haven't got upset, you haven't shown any kind of emotion.
Esther Clavin: Well, what's there to be upset about? I barely knew the man. We just had some good times together, that's all.
Cliff: Ma stop wiping. [Esther sobs] That's it, Ma. You just let it all out now. [sobbing continues] Good, good. Now, don't you feel better? [Esther sobs loudly] Yeah, that should just about do it, huh? [sobbing continues] Good. One last little spurt. [sobbing continues] Ma, you know, there's a fine line between expressing your feelings and blubbering.
Esther Clavin: [crying] [chuckles] I'm sorry. I guess you're right.

Quote from Woody
Woody: You know, funerals are a lot different here than they are back home.
Norm: Yeah? How's that, Woody?
Woody: Well, where I come from, when somebody dies, people come from miles around, bake lots of pies, bring all kinds of food, make speeches, ride the roller coaster. Oh, wait, that might be the state fair.
