Dianne WiestQuotes

Louise Keeley: [examining the sexually provocative designs on the bowls] Oh, what interesting china. It looks like young men playing leapfrog.

Mickey: You know, I was talking to your father before, and I was telling him that it's ironic I, I - used to always have Thanksgiving with Hannah, and I never thought that I could love anybody else. And here it is years later and I'm married to you and completely in love with you. The heart is a very, very resilient little muscle, it really is, I - make a great story, I think, guy marries one sister, doesn't work out, many years later he winds up married to the other sister, it's. You know, to - how you gonna top that? Hmm.

Holly: Mickey.

Mickey: Mmm, what?

Holly: I'm pregnant.

Holly: Don't you just love songs about extra-terrestrial life?

Mickey: Not if they're sung by extra-terrestrials.

Michael Emerson: [upon seeing Grandpa's workroom, filled with deer heads and other animals; [The Texas Chain Saw Massacre|Texas Chain Saw Massacre] Talk about the ].

Lucy Emerson: [to Sam] I can never sleep with the closet door open, either. Not even a crack. Sam, this is a terrible thing to admit, but I think that one of the reasons I divorced your father was because he never believed in the closet monster.

Jim: [after seeing Edward accidentally cut Kim] Hey! Now you've done it!

Kim: It was just a scratch Jim, really!

Peg: What's going on?

Jim: Call a doctor, he skewered Kim!

Jim: [bullying and shoving Edward] You can't touch anything without destroying it! Who the hell do you think you are hanging around here, huh? Get the hell outta here! Go you freak!

Jim: He tried to hurt you.

Kim: No, he did not, and you know it!

Jim: Are you nuts?! I just saw him!

Kim: Jim, I don't love you anymore. I just want you to go, okay? Just go.

Jim: Are you serious? I'm gonna lose you to that? He isn't even human.

Kim: Just get out of here, okay?! Just go!

Peg: You know- damn those TV programs!

Bill: Damn them all to hell.

Bill: So, Edward, did you have a productive day?

Edward: Mrs. Monroe showed me where the salon's going to be. You could have a cosmetics counter.

Peg: Wouldn't that be great?

Bill: Great.

Edward: And then she showed me the back room where she took all of her clothes off.

Bill: [without listening] Edward, I can't tell you how thrilled I am, I'm just as pleased as punch. This whole beauty parlor venture is gonna teach you volumes and nothing like running your own business. I've never done it myself, but from what I gather it's the greatest satisfaction a working man can have.

Peg: [sees Edward come toward her] Why are you hiding back there? You don't have to hide from me - I'm Peg Boggs, your local Avon representative and I'm as harmless as cherry pie... Oh - I can see that I've disturbed you. I'll just be going now...

Edward: Don't go.

Peg: [sees his scissor hands] Oh, my. What happened to you?

Edward: I'm not finished.

Peg: My, those are your hands? Those are your hands! What happened to you? Where are your parents? Um... Your mother? Your father?

Edward: He didn't wake up.

Peg: Are you alone? Do you live up here all by yourself? What happened to your face? No, I won't hurt you. But at the very least, let me give you a good astringent. And this will help to prevent infection. What's your name?

Edward: Edward.

Peg: Edward... I think you should just come home with me.
