Nick Quote #1271
Quote from Nick in Tuesday Meeting
Ruth: Weren't you ever little like me, Uncle Nick?
Nick: Of course I was little like you. Don't you know anything? I was born on a cold, lonely street on the South Side of Chicago. As rumor has it, and there's no proof of this, obviously, but I delivered myself. It was my fifth birthday party, there was a knock at the door. My father jumped up, gave us all a thumbs-up, gave me a wink, then he jumped out the window, bounced up, took off running.
Winston: Oh, wow...
Nick: I didn't see him for six months. [cut] My only babysitter at the time was a rollercoaster at a local amusement park. That and a pack of cigarettes. Being nine in Chicago is different. [cut] The tree fell, hit the power line, and the power line fell right on the hobo, shocking the hobo back to life. That was an amazing moment. I don't know, it made me question the existence of God. I believed entirely in fate, and it was that same fate that brought me to the woman I love today.
Winston: Uh, Nick, go back. Uh, what happened to the hobo?
Nick: He stood up, he spun around, he said, "Time to get a job," and he walked away.

‘Tuesday Meeting’ Quotes
Quote from Cece
Cece: Every woman has a "Tuesday meeting" they haven't been invited to. How many times in your life have you been excluded from something important or talked over or ignored because you're the only woman in the room? It was different when I was running my own company, but ever since we joined with GKM, I've had to start dealing with this male-pattern dumbness.
[flashback:]
Ken: Ugh. What is that?
Cece: It's a breast pump, Ken. I said I needed time to pump, and you refused to change the meeting, so here we are. Now, for the jeans campaign. Which one of these guys says, "I'm having fun in Toronto"? [pumping continues]
[present:]
Cece: So, for half an hour, they had to sit there and watch me get milked like a freaking cow.
Jess: Oh, yeah, your nipples looked like pizza bagels in that thing.
Cece: Yeah, they do.
Quote from Winston
Winston: You know something, I used to think that Nick was the Guttenberg, but it turns out he may be the little lady.
Quote from Cece
Cece: Wait, so, you're saying that you're doing Russell's busywork? That you, Jessica Day, former principal of an entire school, is doing his busywork? Nah, girl. Nah, hold up. One sec. [drinks coffee]
Jess: How's that wine and coffee combination treating you?
Cece: My heart is beating really fast, but time is moving really slow, so it all kind of evens out.
