Quote from Grab It
Claire: Well, most of being a parent isn't fair. Right now, Alex is obsessed with some CEO business woman author who's basically an older-looking version of me. We're the same age, by the way.
Gloria: You know that Alex look up to you, right?
Claire: Not by anything she says, no.
Gloria: Yeah, they never say it. I guess they think that they're giving the parents too much power. They find little ways to express it. Being a mom is like being a model. You have to learn how to live on crumbs.
Quote from Game Changer
Jay: Why tell him to lose to me?
Gloria: Because you're like a baby when you don't win. With the kicking and the eyebrows and the angry eating of the sunflower seeds. [chittering]
Quote from The Storm
Gloria: What are you talking about? "Hero"? You're so much more than that. You have flaws. You fall down a lot.
You frighten yourself. You cannot even open a jar. You cry all the time.
Phil: I'm really ready for this to build into a compliment.
Gloria: The point is that you are comfortable with yourself, and you make people around you feel comfortable. They feel that they can talk to you. That's your superpower!
Quote from Commencement
Manny: Well, maybe if you believed in your sons instead of giving everyone Colombian handshakes.
Gloria: What?! I've never sanded down a man's fingers in front of his family! Oh, you mean the bribes?
Manny: You can't deny it anymore. Look at this photo on my dean's Instagram. He's wearing the same watch you gave Sensei Ron.
Cameron: The superintendent was wearing that same watch. I-I noticed it when he shook my hand at the end of the ceremony and said I was a "horrifying disgrace."
Jay: You bribed him?! Is that how I got my speech?
Gloria: Okay, enough! I'm sure you would have gotten all these things on your own, but the world sometimes is very unfair! And the watches are like an insurance.
Manny: Why do you even have so many?
Gloria: Sometimes I do a little bit of Ambien shopping and I buy too much of one thing. Didn't you all wonder when you got the same fun socks for Christmas?
