Phil Quote #1876

Quote from Phil in The Bicycle Thief

Phil: So, to teach him a lesson, I took his bike. And then, crazy thing, I put it down for one minute, and someone swiped it from me.
Bike Salesman: Maybe that was your dad teaching you a lesson.
Phil: [forced laughter] Zinger! So any chance I could get a break on this one?
Bike Salesman: I can throw in a bell.
Phil: Deal.
Bike Salesman: For $5.
Phil: No, sir.
Bike Salesman: So, you want to go for the insurance this time, or is it still for suckers?
Phil: Ha ha! Got me again. Well played, m'lord. I will take some insurance.

Quote from Jay

Jay: [aside to camera] The key to being a good dad? Look, sometimes things work out just the way you want. Sometimes they don't. You got to hang in there. Because when all is said and done, 90% of being a dad is just showin' up.

Quote from Cameron

Cameron: So, you seen any m-movies lately?
Danielle: Uh, yeah. You know, my husband and I just rented, uh, "Mamma Mia," which I liked, but I don't know that Meryl Streep was the right choice. What did you think?
[aside to camera:]
Cameron: Excuse me. Meryl Streep could play Batman and be the right choice. She's perfection. Whether she's divorcing Kramer, whether she's wearing Prada. Don't even get me started on "Sophie's Choice." I get emotional thinking about it. She couldn't forgive herself. [whimpers]

Quote from Jay

Jay: [aside to camera] Manny thinks his dad is like Superman. The truth? He's a total flake. In fact, the only way he's like Superman Is that they both landed in this country illegally.
