Marie Quote #761
Quote from Marie in Peter on the Couch
Marie: Amy, dear, you have to understand. A child is like a baby robin. You feed him, you nurture him, you get him strong so when the time comes, he's ready to fly away and bring you back grand-robins. And no matter how much you want him to, sometimes there's a robin who just won't fly away.
Frank: And before you know it, you got a 40-year-old robin who can't lift his ass out of the nest.
Amy: I guess it had been going on for so long that we all just got used to it, but I know...
Debra: Yeah. A 40-year-old man still living at his parents' house is a little weird.
Marie: Well, the boy gets used to certain things. Your mother doing your laundry for you and fixing your meals.
Frank: Changing your diaper.
Ray: Taking your temperature the old-fashioned way.

Quote from Robert
Peter: Man, I just didn't see this one coming. I mean, every night my mother would leave a plate of cookies and a cup of hot cocoa outside my door. Does that say "Get the hell out" to you?
Robert: Yeah, they send you all these mixed signals. My mom was the same way. With the food, all the meats and the sauces. You're all doped up like a bear in the zoo. You don't want to be there, but you lose the will to escape.
Quote from Frank
Frank: Those two think their troubles are over. Believe me, you don't want a relative like that living so close to you. You can never get rid of 'em.
Quote from Peter
Peter: You know something? Enjoy your movie. I'm going back to Mom and Dad's.
Robert: Finally.
Amy: Peter, wait.
Peter: No. I'm walking to the bus station.
Amy: You're never gonna be able to get a bus home tonight.
Peter: Then I'll sleep there overnight. Nobody judges you on the floor of the bus station.
Amy: You can't sleep down there! Robert, please, do something!
Robert: All right! I'll drive him back to Pennsylvania.
Peter: Oh yeah, that's what I need: you, me, and no witnesses.
