Jess Quote #645

Quote from Jess in Fired Up

Dr. Foster: Ms. Day? What? What is going on? I thought you fired Coach.
Jess: Look, Coach loves the kids, and the kids love him. I want this job, but I'm not going to do it your way. I'm not going to let our best people go.
Dr. Foster: You were the one who told me, we have no money.
Jess: Yeah, but we can make it up in other ways, we can be creative. We can rent out the multipurpose room after school to local clubs.
Dr. Foster: And where will the orchestra practice? Did you ever consider that, Ms. Day? Or were you too busy buying a ladies bike?
Jess: What?
Susan: They can use the library. No one goes in there anyway.
Biology Teacher: Yeah, let's burn the books! Except for The Da Vinci Code.
Jess: Well, that took a weird turn, but... Thank you, Susan. That-that's so nice. What a great solution.

Quote from Coach

Coach: I'm what?
Jess: We had to do budget cuts, and we have to let two people go, and you're my friend, and I couldn't stop it. I'm so sorry.
[The boys' basketball team runs in with a custom-made jacket for Coach]
Boy: We all pitched in.
Coach: Thanks, guys. I'm not coach anymore. I'm just Coach.

Quote from Nick

Bill Berklan: So, are you gonna sit, or?
Nick: No, I'm gonna stand. 'Cause isn't that what we are doing? Standing... for the little guy?
Schmidt: [quietly] What is the plan?
Nick: Injustice! [drops screws in Schmidt's hand] I will not stand for it. That is why I will sit right now. I will sit down in this chair... [puts feet on table, falls back] You're negligent! Aah! Get off me! My neck! My neck!
Bill Berklan: Seriously? The fall-down on the chair bit? Is this your first case?
Nick: Yes, it is. And that is why I'll file petition on petition. You're gonna wake up in the morning to paperwork. You're gonna go to bed at night to paperwork. So how about this, gentlemen? You pay the $20,000 settlement to your client yourself, and you'll never see our faces again. What do you call a lunatic who's only got one case and no hobbies? Your worst nightmare.

Quote from Winston

Winston: And the jury will see that there is no justice for the Hebrew man. Not in these so-called United States.
Nick: What is that that you're doing?
Winston: I can't get enough of this legal drama. Check this out. Favorite author, Grisham. Favorite TV show, Judging Amy. Favorite color, courtroom brown. Courtroom Brown. Damn, I wish that was my nickname.
Nick: Did you just think of that? 'Cause it was perfect, man.
Winston: Courtroom Brown.
