Barry Gordon Quotes

Nick We got to get rid of him!

Murray Nick...

Nick We got to! Please!

Murray Nick, we can't. We can't. Aw, kid, I'm sorry. Sorry, kid. I'm sorry.

Fess Dorple You mean to tell me that the anchor you just saw down there a, a minute ago, i-it's not there any more?

Ben Powell Look, you can't afford a new car.

Dr. Frieden Well, happy birthday.

Steve Powell Thank you.

Nick My simple child reaction of what you did is that you are not funny. Funnier than you is even Stuart Schlossman, who is my friend, and is eleven, and puts walnuts in his mouth and makes noises. What is not funny is to call us names, and what is mostly not funny is how sad you are, and I'd feel sorry for you if it wasn't for how dull you are. And those are the worst-tasting potato chips that I've ever tasted. And that's my opinion from the blue, blue sky.
