Marie Quote #75

Quote from Marie in Ray's on TV

Ray: Look at you. Oh, my God! You've been lying to me my whole life, haven't you? "Raymond, you're such a great writer, you could've been writing poetry." How about in high school, Ma? "Don't worry, the girls don't know what they're missing." They knew! They knew, and they didn't miss it. How about this, Ma? Were you lying when you said: "The day you were born was the happiest day of our lives."
Marie: No. That's true. It was.

Quote from Marie

Marie: Ray, we told you you were a good writer so that you would think you were a good writer, see? Then somebody gave you a job. That's what parents do. They all lie to their kids for their own good.
Ray: Other parents aren't lying, Ma. They believe in their children.
Marie: No, they don't.

Quote from Ray

Debra: Ally drew another picture of our family and she still says that these monsters aren't your parents.
Ray: All right. So maybe they're not.
Debra: Ray, this one is bald, and this one's carrying a covered dish.
Ray: You know what? Save that. Someday a therapist may want to see it.

Quote from Marie

Frank: Listen, you got bigger problems than your little words there.
Ray: Like what?

Frank: The microphone was much worse.
Marie: No.
Frank: It seemed like he'd never been on television before.
Marie: He's never been on television, but he's had his hands his whole life.
