Marie Quote #191

Quote from Marie in The Toaster

Marie: All right, listen, honey, listen. I understand. I completely understand why you're upset. But let me explain something. You see, this coffee machine has the coffee already made when you come down in the morning.
Ray: The toaster has your son's name, and the names of his family, your grandchildren and their love on it.
Marie: I'm sorry, dear. Well, you know what? Maybe we can put the names on the coffee machine.
Frank: What are you buying a toaster for anyway? Ours is still good.
Ray: No, it's not!
Marie: It is, dear. You just don't know how to use it. You've got to rattle it a little bit. And then you pull the toast up and turn it around and then do it on the other side.

Quote from Robert

Robert: How could they not like the toaster?
Ray: They didn't even open it. They traded it in. Ungrateful mental cases.
Debra: You know, maybe the question here isn't, "Why don't they ever like my presents?" but rather, "Why do I so desperately need their approval?"
Robert: Ah!
Ray: Oh, shut up! Shut up! How would you feel?
Robert: How would I feel? Maybe you'd like to read my book: "You're in the Way: The Robert Barone Story." He doesn't need their approval, sis. He's got it to a fault. He's the beloved one.

Sales Clerk: I can assure you they're all exactly like the display model.
Marie: See, here's one where the pamphlet's a little folded.

Marie: It's perfectly valid.
Frank: Can't you ever just be quiet?
Marie: Don't you tell me to be quiet! I have a mind of my own, you know? I can contribute. I'm not just some trophy wife!
Frank: You're a trophy wife? What contest in hell did I win?

Quote from Marie

Ray: What about the Fruit-of-the-Month club?
Marie: Oh, well, that was insane! A year of fruit? You know they still send me flyers wanting me to rejoin? And pictures of apricots! How is that supposed to make me feel?
Ray: How you feel? How about how I feel? You ever think of that?
Marie: Well, honey, we are the ones who have to get these presents.
