Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk Goes Camping
Adrian Monk: I don't know how you do it. Lieutenant Disher: What's that? Adrian Monk: How you take it. People joke around, tease you, you never get mad or upset. Lieutenant Disher: Used to bother me when I was coming up in uniform. I heard people laughing, telling Randy Disher stories. It hurt, you know. I almost quit. Adrian Monk: What happened? Lieutenant Disher: One night I got a call. A P-300 downtown. There was a bumper sticker on one of the cars, and it said, "happiness is a choice." I mean, I know it sounds crazy, but it changed my life. I made a decision right there. I chose to be happy. I mean, I really believe that. I mean, you have the power. You can choose to be happy. Adrian Monk: I guess I should read more bumper stickers. Lieutenant Disher: Everybody should.
