[to Mary] There's always going to be somebody who'll try to take your dignity and self-esteem. Just never let them take your voice.

(praying) We thank you for this food, Lord, and...any other help you could pass our way about now would be greatly appreciated, with an eye toward peace and harmony. Amen.

Eric

[to Matt] I couldn't let you spend three days on a bus with a broken heart. Let's go home.

I shouldn't have gotten out of bed this morning. I turned Ruthie into an atheist, I forced Matt to go out with Connie, Lucy and Mary are both dating 11-year olds and I still have to talk to Simon about that movie.

Eric

[to his Congregation] It's just that we're all doing the best we can, considering who we are at any given moment... every single one of us and that includes the other guy. The guy who has offended us yesterday, a year ago, 20 years ago. It took a young man who's only 15 and in the depths of mourning to remind me of that. And in turn, I am reminding you, I encourage you to make this a week of reconciliation. Amen

Eric

[to the Teacher's Board] I was going to say that Jack Brenner's a friend a mine and I don't like what he did. Should he be punished? How? And how much? By whom? And who gets to decide?

Eric

[to the congregation at church] My family has been talking a lot about prayer this week. The discussions began when I shared my feelings about a letter I received in the mail, sent anonymously...I will now pass the author's request on to you.

Eric

[to the church congregation] Say a prayer for the millions of children in the world who have become victims of violence...ask God to help those children who are trying to recover from the death of playmate or friend or family member...pray for the children, that they might have peace...because if we won't stop the violence in our children's lives by taking the right actions and behaving responsibly, then the very least we owe them might be the most powerful thing we can give them, our prayers.

Eric

[to the other jurors] I'm asking you to rise above that. The evidence shows that the defendant is guilty.

Eric

[to Annie] When two people get together for the wrong reasons, there can only be one outcome. Lucy and Robbie will eventually have to face why they got together. And when they do, they'll break up.

Eric

[to Simon] In case you were wondering what your sister was screaming about at 2:30 in the morning, Mary's home. And she brought Ben and Ben's brother. Now your mother's making them sandwiches, even though they're grown men who can make their own sandwiches. Heh. Yeah.

Eric

[to Lucy] You're intelligent, kind and sweet, you'd do anything to help anyone. You're a wonderfull daughter and a caring sister. You have principles, and no matter how hard it is for you, you live by them. You constantly challenge yourself, your friends and your family. You're extremely passionate about all things and people you love. You, Lucy Camden, are a fantastic person and if they gave out an award for best in the human race, you would win it year after year.

Eric

[about learning that Mary and Carlos got married] I hope they will be very happy. For the rest of their stupid lives.
