Tim Quote #1420

Quote from Tim in Ye Olde Shoppe Teacher

Tim: Mr. Leonard, it's great to see you.
Mr. Leonard: Oh, Timmy, it's wonderful. It brings back such memories. [laughs] Do you remember your first semester, the thing with the acetylene torch?
Tim: Yeah. I burned a little hole in the principal's office wall.
Mr. Leonard: Uh-huh. You remember his reaction? He was fuming.
Tim: Literally.
Mr. Leonard: Oh, yeah. He wanted me to take you out of shop class permanently.
Tim: The principal wanted me out of shop class? And the school board and the PTA. I think I even got a call from the mayor. And I told them all, "Thank you. Go stick it in your ear."
Jill: Why did you stick up for Tim like that?
Mr. Leonard: Because I had never seen a kid with so much enthusiasm before. When I could get you to calm down and stop trying to set the principal on fire, you showed some real talent. And that's why I told them to shove it. Because I knew you were gonna be great, and I was right.

Quote from Tim

Tim: I broke the cardinal rule with men. I offered help to a man that didn't want any.
Jill: Well, it looked like he needed it.
Tim: That didn't matter. By offering him help, it made him feel like less of a man.
Jill: Now, wait a minute. Are you trying to tell me that if you saw a guy trapped underneath a boulder and he didn't ask for your help, you wouldn't move the boulder? [Tim shakes his head] That is insane.
Tim: If I moved the boulder the guy would feel like half a man.
Jill: If you didn't move the boulder the guy would be half a man.
Tim: But that half would thank me.
Jill: And men say that women are illogical and irrational?
Tim: They are, but what does that have to do with this?

Quote from Tim

Mr. Leonard: I swear to you, it's the truth. I mean, your father is a genuine original. I got another one for you. Even I can't explain this one. He is gluing a table together one time. Somehow a piece of the table gets stuck to his head.
Tim: There's a mistake I didn't let happen again.
Mark: Dad, didn't you do that...?
Tim: Here, have a cookie, will you, pal?

Quote from Tim

Jill: It is so great to see a mentor and a student reunited again. I used to have an English teacher that affected me the way you did Tim. Um, Mrs. Holloway. She introduced me to Shakespeare. Gosh, I loved Macbeth I used to walk around going, "Out, damned spot! Out, I say!"
Tim: Well, enough of your laundry stories.
