Ray Quote #1929
Ray: Remember that French teacher I had in high school?
Robert: Oh, you mean Monsieur LeFevre?
Ray: Yeah. Yeah. Except his real name was Mr. Leftkowitz. That's right. He made everybody call him Monsieur LeFevre. Terrible teacher.
Amy: Why?
Ray: Because he... He thought he was so...
Frank: French?
Ray: Yeah. Yeah. That's right. He was a phony. I hated him. And he hated me. We had to memorize these French dialogues from records, and at the end of the sentence it would go, "beep!" And you had to repeat the sentence. Like, uh, "Ou est Sylvie?" Beep. "A la piscine," beep. So one day, I go, "Monsieur LeFevre! Do French people really beep like that?" [laughs] Yeah. He got mad. You know why? 'Cause it got a big laugh.

Quote from Frank
Ray: You did that? Well, why didn't you tell me?
Marie: Because you should respect teachers. Plus, Robert would've wanted me to do it for him.
Robert: Why wouldn't you do it for me? How about when I was 13 years old and my basketball coach called me "the useless giraffe"?
Frank: You were 6'5". You couldn't get a couple of rebounds?
Quote from Frank
Frank: Pulled their asses out of two wars, the French. What did they give us? A disgusting way to kiss.
Robert: Who are you talking to, Dad?
Ray: Where was that attitude when I needed it? You could've defended me.
Frank: What, and walk all the way to the school? I wasn't putting on pants for that.
Quote from Marie
Ray: Yeah, you never stuck up for me. You always took the teacher's side. And you too, Ma. Just like Debra's doing now. That's right. The same!
Marie: Excuse me, Raymond. I was not like Debra. I did defend you with Monsieur LeFevre.
Ray: What? Why, what'd you do?
Marie: I went down to that school and gave that man a piece of my mind, even though your behavior in that class was deplorable and is the reason that you and I cannot converse in French today.
