Ray Quote #1172
Quote from Ray in Frank Paints the House
Debra: Here I thought it'd be so nice, all the Barone men working together.
Robert: No one works with Dad, you work for him.
Ray: 'Cause nobody can do anything right except him.
Robert: Yeah, remember the fort?
Ray: That's right. Robert and I were building a fort in our backyard nothing fancy, just this little fort. Yeah, just a place we could read our comic books and... other periodicals.
Debra: Ugh!
Robert: And we were having fun too, building the fort all by ourselves, right? Till Dad came home and told us we were doing it all wrong.
Ray: Yeah. Didn't show us how to do it right, just called us stupid, stinking humps and did it himself. That's why when you get mad that I'm not the handiest guy around here, you know, it brings up a lot of stuff.
Debra: I'm sorry. So it has nothing to do with you being lazy and watching TV all the time?
Ray: That's how I cover the hurt.

‘Frank Paints the House’ Quotes
Quote from Frank
Ray: How are you right? How are you right?! It's my house and you wanted to paint it yellow! How is that right?
Frank: Because yellow covers better! It won't fade as fast! And you got white houses on either side of you! It makes your house pop a little! And it goes with your trim and the frigging little daisies you got!
Ray: Well, why didn't you just say that?
Frank: I shouldn't have to say it!
Ray: What?
Frank: Because if I say it's yellow, that should be good enough for you! I shouldn't have to explain everything! I'm right!
Ray: Okay, you're right, but it's not always about being right.
Frank: Yes, it is! Being right is all that matters. Everything else is crap! "Oh, you have to consider people's feelings." "Oh, what if they don't like you?" They should like me because I did the job right!
Quote from Marie
Marie: Well, you two always talk about having your house painted so, I put your father on the job.
Debra: But, Marie, we were going to hire professionals.
Marie: Oh, but Frank is very good. He did a nice job on our house. And he likes the fumes.
Debra: Well, yes, he did do a nice job on your house and I would hate to kill anyone's buzz, but...
Ray: Yeah, but we were kind of thinking that we would be the ones to make that decision, 'cause it is kind of our house.
Marie: Yes, but we're the ones who have to look at it.
Ray: All right, I'm going to use this french toast to lure him off the ladder.
Marie: Okay, okay, okay. Just let your father do this. I need him out of my house. Ever since he's retired, he's around all the time.
Debra: Yeah, but that's what happens when you retire.
Marie: I know, but I never thought he'd live this long.
