Ray Quote #429

Quote from Ray in The Ride-Along

Debra: Honey, were you scared?
Ray: A little. Yeah. But, Robert, you know, was not.
Debra: You know, that's his job.
Ray: I know. But I couldn't do that. I mean, what's the most dangerous thing I do? I let the kids jump on me without wearing a cup. Robert, he's really...
Debra: You're proud of him.
Ray: Well, he's like a hero. You know, and everybody's always making a big fuss about what I do just 'cause I have some column. Robert's the one whose name should be in the paper.
Debra: Did you tell him that?
Ray: You know what? I'm gonna do better than that.
Debra: Who are you calling?
Ray: Hold on. [on the phone] Hey, Max. Yeah, it's Ray. Listen, you didn't put the paper to bed yet, did you? Okay, great. I got a great story. I went with my brother on this police ride-along. Yeah, the big guy. Yeah, the chin-toucher. Yeah. Listen. You're not gonna believe what happened...

Quote from Robert

Ray: Listen, the reason I called the paper...
Robert: The reason, Raymond? I think I know the reason. It's called self-promotion.
Ray: What? No.
Robert: What's the matter, Raymond, huh? Sports section isn't enough anymore?
Ray: Oh, come on.
Robert: You have to be all over the paper. Why don't you hop on the subway, make the travel section?
Ray: All right. Come on.
Robert: How about the food section: "Newsday's own Ray Barone enjoys salami sandwich." I'll tell you what.
I'll give you change for $1. You can make the financial pages: "Ray Barone converts paper into coin."
Ray: Are you through?
Robert: Yes. Unless you're gonna be changing your clothes today. Fashion pages!

Quote from Marie

Ray: Why are you doing that to him?
Frank: Do what?
Ray: You act like it's nothing, what he does. He stopped an armed robbery last night. I didn't do anything. I had to throw up.
Marie: You threw up? You should have some dry toast.
Ray: Will you stop? Robert's the one you should be worried about. Are you listening to me, Ma? He's the one who's out there every day. He's the one who's risking his life.
Marie: I know what he does! I don't need to think about it.
Ray: Okay. I just wanted you to know.
Frank: Enough! Your mother doesn't like to think about it. Now you made me forget. What is it, oatmeal or eggs, Marie? Let's go!
