Marie Quote #263
Marie: You're leaving the children to strangers?
Ray: Ma, Bernie and Linda aren't strangers.
Marie: Please. Please, you don't owe me any explanation. They're your children. It's your life, isn't it?
Ray: That's been the dream.
Marie: Well, I don't want to keep you. I just came over to try to, you know, help.
Ray: Ma, if Bernie and Linda drop dead, you're on deck!
Debra: Well, thank you. And that's for the children. Tell them it's from... a friend. [exits, returns] You know, actually, this could be a good lesson for me. To learn to be content with what is and not to hope for what could be.
Debra: So what could be is us dying and you raising our children?
Marie: Well, not anymore.

Quote from Debra
Debra: All right, I'm sorry. So the salt didn't stay on your pretzel.
Ray: Yes! All right, so I'm... I'm bending down to wipe the salt off my shirt, and bam, a foul ball comes flying into the booth. It came this close to hitting me!
Debra: Yeah?
Ray: Yeah! I felt its wind! And then I turn and Andy, who just got a turkey and cheese sandwich, and the ball knocks it off his tray. The soda, pickles, chips, chocolate cake, everything!
Debra: You get chocolate cake in the press box?
Ray: It was Friday. We get a different cake every Friday. But you're missing the point.
Debra: No, I'm getting the point. A ball bounced into your world and disturbed paradise!
