Philip Quote #50

Quote from Philip in Deck the Halls

Vivian: We should have left that stupid office party an hour earlier. I still have 30 papers to grade.
Philip: Well, we're both busy, but we can't work in the car so why don't we just take this time to relax a bit?
Vivian: You're right. Oh, look how nicely they decorated the house on the corner.
Philip: Those white lights on the tree outside.
Vivian: Just the right touch of lights. A little goes a long way, you know.
Philip: God, I used to love Christmas when I was little. Now it just rushes by in one big blur.
Vivian: Hmm. Well, Christmas is more for kids. You know, even though we're busy I think we should do something nice for Will. Must be hard for him spending Christmas in a strange place.
Philip: Oh, yeah, you're right, sweetheart. We'll do something nice for him.
[As Phil and Vivian pull up on their drive way, they see the house is decked out in lights with giant inflatable candles, reindeer, snowmen and Santa Clauses]

Quote from Will

Will: Thanks a lot, Ash. Now I'll never know how the story ends. Pardon me for caring, but I really wanted to know what Santa got for Christmas.
Ashley: He doesn't get an actual gift, Will. He gets the love of all the little children in the world.
Will: Really? What a gyp.
Ashley: Oh, come on, Will. Everyone knows there's no Santa Claus.
Will: Wait a minute, there is no Milli Vanilli but there definitely is a Santa Claus.

Quote from Hilary

Hilary: [on the phone] Okay, that would be fantastic. All right. Also, I want to send a box of the fancy chocolate-covered pretzels to a Mr. Patrick Swayze. Right. And the card should read: "Pat, saw these and immediately thought of you. Love, Hilary. XXX." Okay, now, send the same thing to Kevin Costner, Michelle Pfeiffer and Sting. Great, thanks. [hangs up] Well, that takes care of the A-list. Now, should I send the box of pears or the meat thermometer to Steve Guttenberg?
Will: Hilary, I hate to inject some reality into these proceedings but who you trying to fool, baby?
Hilary: What do you mean?
Will: Hilary, you always walk around fronting like you know all these famous people. You don't know nobody.
Hilary: God, Will, you are so jaded and skeptical. You remind me so much of Judd Nelson.

Quote from Ashley

Ashley: Will, don't you have anything better to do with Christmas vacation than writing a silly letter?
Will: Well, what are you gonna do with your vacation? Are you gonna play with your friends?
Ashley: I wish I had someone to play with but every year my friends all go out of town and I'm stuck here all alone.
Will: Ashley, you can still do something to have fun while you're here.
Ashley: I'm going to. I've decided to learn a new word every day.
Will: Ashley, that's boring.
Ashley: Really? I think it's very autodidactic.
