Wilson Quote #269

Quote from Wilson in Mr. Wilson's Opus

Tim: You out here, Wilson?
Wilson: Yes, I am, Tim, but I am kind of busy. Thanks to you, I'm not only the play's director, I'm also the set designer, along with many other jobs too numerous to mention.
Tim: I think we should talk about what happened with you and me today.
Wilson: Oh, that's all right, neighbor. It was just that our visions clashed. Happens all the time in the theater. Happened with the costumer. You know, it's not easy firing an eighth grader.
Tim: You fired little Susie Harris?
Wilson: Well, Tim, I had to. A Montague would never wear this to a Capulet's ball.

Quote from Al

Tim: Welcome to Tool Time. I am Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor. And you all know my assistant, Al "He's a Thorn in My - ow! Siding" Borland.
Al: What Tim is trying to say is that it's Siding Week on Tool Time. And today we're gonna be working with aluminum. Or as I like to call it: "Al-luminum."
Tim: You know, you're the only one that thinks it's funny putting the word "Al" in every sentence.
Al: "Al" be the judge of that. [snorts]
Tim: A few more jokes like that, you'll be working in "Al-toona."
Al: Sorry. All right, let's get to our "inst-Al-lation."
Tim: Would you stop it, please?

Quote from Al

Tim: Last time, we showed you how to install your half-inch foam board over your existing shingles. Now it's time to turn to aluminum.
Al: That's right. And our siding comes in 12-foot lengths. You're often gonna need to cut this around the lighting fixtures and faucets.
Al: Which means you'll have to do some measuring.
Tim: Al uses the old carpenter's adage, "Measure twice, cut once."
Al: Tim's adage is, "Never measure, cut yourself."

Quote from Wilson

Tim: Well, I'm putting the finishing touches on the aluminum set. What do you think?
Wilson: Well, I'm thinking I won't be able to use this set.
Tim: [inquisitive grunt]
Wilson: Tim, the suburban interpretation - it's all wrong. Why not just give Juliet a three-car garage?
Tim: All right, I see it. If we're gonna go with this, three-car garage. She's Italian. Doesn't want to get the Ferraris rained on. I like it!
Wilson: Tim, the sets have to fit my vision.
Tim: Pardonnez-moi. I happen to be the set designer.
Wilson: And I am the director.
