Jay Quote #700
Quote from Jay in Other People's Children
Jay: Didn't your dad teach you any of this stuff?
Luke: He says the only tool you need is a sense of humor.
Jay: 'Cause who needs the jaws of life if you have a good knock-knock joke? Luke, grab the goggles over there, please. And try to pay attention. We measure twice, and we cut once.
Luke: Hey, Grandpa, can you bench 180 pounds?
Jay: I just said pay attention. And that's actually 205 with the bar. I'll lift that for you later. I can see you're not gonna let up about that.
Luke: Eh, I'm okay.
Jay: Spot me. Now, if this thing goes south, I want you to call 911 and tell Joe his old man died as he lived saving a trainload of people.

Quote from Lily
Lily: What's a bridal store?
Gloria: It's a place with the most wonderful dresses that you have ever seen. We're gonna get you the perfect one even if it takes us all day.
Lily: Found it.
Claire: Oh, no, sweetie. That's a costume. You can't wear a costume to a wedding.
Lily: Why not? Belle's a princess. She faced the beast. She stood up to the townspeople. What have you done?
Quote from Cameron
Cameron: I am so excited for this exhibit. I'm such an admirer of Kandinsky. You know, he was credited with painting the first truly abstract work.
Mitchell: Is that so?
Cameron: Mm-hmm.
[aside to camera:]
Cameron: To be honest, I was a little nervous about holding my own with those three, so... I did a little boning up on Kandinsky. Figured it couldn't hurt to have a few facts in my pocket. My backup plan was to touch a painting and get thrown out.
