Gloria Quote #684
Quote from Gloria in Basketball
Gloria: Donna, we have to stop this fighting. A wise man once told me that we resent mirrors that show us what we don't want to see.
Dr. Donna: [scoffs] That's ridiculous. I love mirrors.
Gloria: But the point is that I was mad because you made me see who I really am, and I was shocked to see what I have become.
Dr. Donna: Stop talking. You're sounding human, and I don't like that.
Gloria: I am soft, privileged lady, and I thought that bothered me. Until today, I realized that it doesn't. I don't want to do this. I love my pretty, pretty life. The only thing that makes me feel bad is that I don't really feel bad about it.
Dr. Donna: Thank you so much for opening up to me. I almost started to feel something for you, but then when you said you don't feel guilty, my rage returned tenfold. And I need that rage. It gets me up in the morning.
Gloria: Well, if it helps you, I eat everything I want, and I work out like once a year.
Dr. Donna: You're horrible. [sighs] Oh, thank you.

Quote from Jay
Jay: [aside to camera] I don't like to talk about it a lot, but I have a certain expertise in timber. Even blindfolded, I can tell a Galapagos teak from a Maltese cherry. Came in handy for a cop friend of mine. Helped him round up the Cedar Boys.
Quote from Cameron
Cameron: You know, I'm glad we're doing this again.
Alex: Yeah, I think we just put too much pressure on it the first time.
Cameron: You know, humans aren't the only ones who respond badly to pressure. Did I ever tell you about the day without eggs? It was at the start of the Omelet Days Festival. Up with the sun, I grab my basket, into the hen-house I go. Thirty-four hens, nary an egg. I know, I know. My grandpa said it was the worst case of avian anxiety he'd seen since Pearl Harbor. That's when they had to take the radio out of the coop.
Quote from Jay
Joe: I spilled juice on the rug. Please don't tell Mama.
Jay: Don't tell Mama?
[aside to camera:]
Jay: What about, "Don't tell Papa?" A boy is supposed to fear his father. I shook in my boots around my old man, just like he did around his. To this day, I hear the crack of a Schlitz or smell some Singleton's Beard Tonic, and I'm sweating like a mob rat in Little Italy.
