Quote from Red in Eric's Depression
Eric: Dad, I'm really not in the mood for conversation. Red: Good. Then I'll talk and you listen. I ever tell you the story about Larry "No Foot" Mulligan? Eric: Well, I can guess. He had no foot? Red: Larry was a buddy of mine who lost his foot during the war. And then, on his way back to the States, old One Foot - at that point we were calling him One Foot - had his ship go down and a shark ate his other foot. But he made it all the way back home. And do you know what happened to him when he got here? Eric: He overcame his handicap and, ironically, became a shoe salesman? Red: No. His girlfriend dumped him. Eric: Well, thank God it had a happy ending. Red: Look, the point of the story is, you've got both feet. You'll be fine. Now, put some shoes on, go on down and trim the hedges. Eric: Yeah. Well, you know, I think I'm just gonna stay up here. Red: Yeah. Well, you know, I think you're not.
