Chris Quote #149
Quote from Chris in Everybody Hates the Class President
Greg: What are you gonna do?
Chris: I'm gonna run for class president.
Greg: Dude, you're not serious.
Chris: Why not? What have I got to lose? And this isn't just for me. This is for us. How are we ever going to get any respect? Get popular? Get a girl? Stop getting beat down? How are we ever gonna get treated any better if we don't act like we deserve it? Besides, give me one good reason why I shouldn't run.
[fantasy: Chris steps up to a podium surrounded by two Secret Service agents and gets shot by a sniper]
Chris: Give me one more reason.

Quote from Rochelle
Rochelle: Baby, what do you have to be stressed out about? You have a beautiful wife, two good jobs, and three wonderful kids, a nice home in Bed-Stuy... [chuckles] You're stressed?

Quote from Tonya
Adult Chris: [v.o.] In 1984, Michael Jackson became the biggest star on Earth, but to my sister Tonya, he couldn't hold a candle to Billy Ocean.
Drew: What are you doing?
Tonya: I'm learning the steps from "Caribbean Queen."
Drew: There are no steps to "Caribbean Queen."
Tonya: Yes, there are. First he does like this, then he does like this, then he does like this, and then he does this, and he finishes off with this. He also does the moonwalk, but I don't know how to do that yet.
Drew: Billy Ocean doesn't moonwalk. That's Michael Jackson's move.
Tonya: Where do you think Michael got it from?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Peg Leg Bates.
