Vivian Quote #142

Quote from Vivian in Father Knows Best

Vivian: This is important. Don't make jokes.
Philip: Vivian, we've made our decision.
Vivian: We? No, you've made a decision. I'm a college professor. You didn't even ask my opinion.
Philip: Didn't I? I'm sure I did. I'm sorry, honey. What do you think?
Vivian: I think we should at least consider it. You know, sometimes I think we work so hard to give our kids what we didn't have, sometimes we forget to give them what we did have.

Quote from Will

Miss Sharpe: Well, will Mrs. Banks be joining us?
Will: Uh, no, I'm single. I mean, um, Ashley's mother ran out on us. Ashley was but a mere tyke at the time. I had to be both Mommy and Daddy. We went from training wheels to training bras. They both came off too soon, didn't they, kitten?

Quote from Will

Ashley: Okay. Mom, Dad, it's like this. Will has something he wants to tell you.
Will: I ain't got nothing. Um... Your Honor, uh... Now, before you deliver your verdict, the defense dictates that you sustain the motion of the ocean. Because most parents want the truth, but they can't handle the truth. So in conclusion, I move for a change of venue. What you say you give us a half-hour head start.

Quote from Philip

Vivian: Philip, I'm sure the mayor's mother meant it as a compliment.
Philip: Oh, really? Then I should be honored that she thinks I look like a Black Alfred Hitchcock. Hi kids.
Will: [as Hitchcock] Good evening.
