Ray Quote #1837

Quote from Ray in The Ingrate

Ray: "And it's a fair question to ask me, because I am, after all, mostly qualified to do something like deliver futons. So, how did I get here? You see, there was this futon-delivery guy, and he met a beautiful woman." Oh, now you're listening. "And even though she was way out of his league, for some unknown reason, she smiled at him. Eventually, and even more amazingly, she married him. And it turns out that when one of your dreams comes true, you begin to take the others a little more seriously. So, even though I'm as amazed as anybody that I have any success at all, I'm pretty sure it all started with my wife Debra's smile." I wrote that.
Debra: That is the sweetest thing.
Ray: Not too sappy?
Debra: It's way too sappy.

Quote from Ray

Debra: You have to admit, you're not the most professorial kind of guy.

Ray: Stomachache.
Debra: I am just teasing you.

Debra: No, come on. Kiss me again. For once, I don't have a "heada-cha-chuh."

Quote from Robert

Amy: Go ahead, Robert.
Robert: Uh, Raymond, your success is your success and not my failure. And so as any good brother should be, I am happy for you.
Frank: Both my sons are whipped!
Robert: However, Raymond, if anybody should get credit for your success, it should be me.
Amy: Robert!
Robert: That's right! Admit it! You owe your success to the pathological desire you've always had to be better than me!
Ray: What?
Robert: That's right. Remember in school? I was the writer on the paper. Before you even knew how to pick up a pencil, I had my own column, "The View from Up Here."
Ray: You've gotta be kidding me!

Quote from Marie

Marie: So, you just cast aside the mother. Let me tell you. It didn't start with a smile. It started with 19 hours of horrible labor.
Frank: But before that, there was a smile.
Marie: Also horrible.
