Debra Quote #596

Quote from Debra in Ally's F

Debra: Mr. Putnam, we're really gonna crack down on her homework.
Mr. Putnam: It's not just homework. You can't do the homework if you don't pay attention. You see, the thing about math is numbers are constant. They're clear. They're... logical. They're organized. 13-year-olds are not.
Debra: Believe me, I understand.
Mr. Putnam: Thank you. I'm sure Ally's a very bright girl, but she doesn't pay attention. Nothing I say...
Debra: Sinks in?
Mr. Putnam: Right.
Debra: Yeah. Everything I read says that's teenagers.
Mr. Putnam: I used to teach second-graders. I mean, sure, you had the occasional pee-pee accident in class. But they they were so...
Debra: Sweet.
Mr. Putnam: Yes. And appreciative.
Debra: Yes.
Mr. Putnam: Mm-mmm.
Ray: You two met before, or?

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 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 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.
