Quote from Marie in I Love You
Ray: Look, you don't have to say it. It's okay. Marie: Why is it so important to you all of a sudden? My parents never said it. Ray: When you were a kid, didn't you want your parents to say it to you? Marie: Of course. Frank: But they didn't. Ray: Why? Frank: They didn't wanna spoil us. Ray: Okay, this is the way we wanna be? Is this the way we want the kids to be? I mean, what would be so wrong with saying, "I love you" around here once in a while? Marie: Well, we're not living in a fairyland here, Raymond.
