[about Lucy] She'll come around.
I don't think she's going to come around anytime soon and I'm tired of her being angry all the time. I mean, I understand it, but I'm tired of it.
S11 E1Turn, Turn, Turn
I've been doing some thinking over the summer, because I didn't want to decide too quickly, but I think I've decided now. I don't ever want to try to have kids again, Kevin. Even if it's nobody's fault. It's you and me and Savannah and these guys (points to the dogs). That's a big enough family for me.
I understand. And if you decide to change your mind, I understand that too.
What's ridiculous is the fact that you even want to be a minister. I think you just want to be a Camden. You think that if you're a minister, then maybe Simon Camden will start to like you better, maybe even love you, maybe even marry you. Then you can be a Camden. And when I say "you," I do mean the old you as well as the new you. I mean, isn't that what you really want--to be a Camden?
SSandy
Listen, I think you should go.
S11 E2And Tonight's Specials Are...
I mean, don't you get a little tired of being around them?
No. They're my family!
Exactly. You can't talk to your family about your family. I mean, that's how you ended up losing it in church. You need a friend to talk to.
It's going to be all right, Kevin. Everything will be all right. Just go home to Lucy, and hang out with her, be with her, talk to her, let her know how much you care about her.
No offense, Mom, but I don't think things are going to get better. In fact, I think they're just gonna get worse.
I can't believe I spent the whole day hanging out with a teenager who has a crush on me. And I really can't believe that he actually made me feel better.
You never know where help is gonna come from.
S11 E3A Pain in the Neck
SStanley
What happened to you?
I'm just having a bad day.
(to Stanley, telling him why he shouldn't smoke and drink): 'Cause Stanley, I want you to live!
S11 E4Don't Ax, Don't Tell
[to Sam & David] So, starting today, we are going to have school right here at home.
Is that legal?
MMs. Margo
Lots of women fall in love with married men.
Yeah, lots of women do and it's always a mistake.
MMs. Margo
It can't always be a mistake.
Yes, it can. You know, I don't say never or always very often, but I'm saying always here because it's true. It is always a mistake.
MMs. Margo
Still, it happens.
It doesn't happen here.
You can think of how you want to feel and act as if you actually feel that way, and you will feel that way. You can decide that your feelings are completely inappropriate and choose some other feelings.
MMs. Margo
What if I don't want to choose? What if I want to feel what I feel? What if I want to follow my heart?
What if you let your mind lead what you want your heart to follow? And what if you choose good things for yourself? What if you even love yourself?
MMs. Margo
Hey, what if you love me?
But I don't. I don't love you, Ms. Margo. I don't want to love you.
MMs. Margo
Could you choose to love me?
(long pause) I could...but I'm not going to. Why would I? I love my wife. I love my children. I love my grandchildren. I even love myself.
S11 E5The Replacements
[to Eric after Eric invites him and the two homeless girls to spend the night at the Camdens] You can't die from having too big a heart, can you?
S11 E7You Take the High Road (1)
I think you've been over there a little too long because you're starting to sound like a brat! And look here, little sister, when Mom and Dad show up, you better act as if you're happy to see them.
Why?
Because they're your parents! They're your mom and dad, and you should be grateful that you even have a mother and father!
Yeah, well, I'm not right now, okay? They just want to ruin my life!
You don't understand. This is my life we're talking about. It's not your life, it's mine. I love it here. I am perfectly happy being halfway across the world, away from the Church, and Dad and the school where you and Matt and Mary and Simon all went to. I'm not the preacher's kid anymore, I'm just Ruthie Camden. Do you know how great it is to just be Ruthie Camden without everyone knowing I'm the preacher's kid? I love it. I'm a normal girl here.I just want to be normal!
Normal is completely overrated. And quit whining about being the preacher's kid. What's wrong with being the preacher's kid? There are a lot worse things to be. You know, maybe you'd like to be the daughter of a.....a bad person!
[about Eric and Annie leaving to get Ruthie from Scotland] They just decided to take off, okay?
And you let them?
I had nothing to do with it. They're our parents. They do what they want.
Yeah, well, what about me? When do I get to do what I want?
Ruthie, they let you stay in Scotland for the semester. You were supposed to come home at the end of the summer. I think they've been pretty generous in letting you do what you want!
