Quote from Adult Dean

Dean: Hey, Cory!
Bill: [chuckles] Good to see you, Cliff.
Cory: Sorry, Dean. Mrs. Fry made me bring you your homework. I tried telling her you were on death's door and that you wouldn't need any algebra in heaven, but she wasn't buying it.
Dean: It's okay. At least you tried.
Adult Dean: I pretended to be mad, but secretly, I was missing that sweet, sweet arithmetic.

Quote from Coach Long

Coach Long: I get to sit on the good couch? You must really be desperate.

Coach Long: It's 4:00 in the afternoon, Bill.
Granddaddy Clisby: Boy, boy, you're a sight for sore eyes.
Coach Long: Uh, I see being all cooped up in here hasn't, uh, affected you guys at all.
Granddaddy Clisby: So, what'd I miss at the barbershop, huh? Did Hal patch up with Ida?
Coach Long: Oh, you ain't gonna believe this.
Granddaddy Clisby: Okay.

Quote from Granddaddy Clisby

Dean: Want to know what'd be a good idea? If the three of us play cards together. You could even teach me poker.
Granddaddy Clisby: You don't know how to play poker? Well, you ought to know by now. [stammers] How old are you? 7?
Dean: I'm 12.
Bill: You're not gonna teach my son how to gamble. Besides, he doesn't have any money.
Granddaddy Clisby: Yeah, he does.
Dean: Yeah, I do.
Bill: You know what? If it'll help us pass the time, let's do it. Just don't tell your mother.

Quote from Bill

Bill: Well, maybe we should just call it a night, then.
Dean: No, we have to keep playing!
Bill: Why is this so important to you, Dean?
Dean: Because you, Granddaddy, and Bruce have all these things in common. You go hunting and fishing and do all these manly things, and I don't get to do any of it. I-I just want to be a part of the Williams men... for once.
Bill: Dean, that's crazy talk. You'll always be a Williams man. [looks at his father] For better or worse.

Quote from Dean

Bill: Dean! Can you hear me?
Dean: All right, you doughboys, it's time to go over the top and lick those Germans.
Bill: He's delirious and talking crazy. We need to go now.

Quote from Adult Dean

Lillian: Oh, God, my baby.
Dean: I-I'm okay, Mom.
Kim: You're gonna live, right?
Adult Dean: Kim was being nice to me? Dang. I must've been sicker than I thought.

Quote from Adult Dean

Adult Dean: I had set out to create a bonding experience with the men of my family, and it quickly became a disastrous week of chicken pox, goose grease, and bloodletting. But what I didn't realize was that you can't force these kinds of things... You just got to let them happen on their own. Turns out the moments you don't plan for are the ones that make the best memories.
