Ronnie Cooke quotes from Boston Public

Danny Hanson

Can I ask you something? You can tell me if it's a tacky question, but I really gotta know.

Ronnie Cooke

Okay.

Danny Hanson

As a lawyer, how much money did you make?

Ronnie Cooke

That's a tacky question.

Danny Hanson

Well, that's not really a deterrent for me actually.

[on the phone with Ronnie] Sheila broke into my apartment.

Ronnie Cooke

You're sure someone was in your apartment?

Yes, I'm sure.

Ronnie Cooke

[referring to Mike]] I need to get his parents in here tomorrow first thing.

My father is God and my mother is the Virgin Mary. I don't think they are available.

[after being caught hugging a female student] What's the big deal? The kid was crying. Some boy named Tristan or Clayton or whatever, he blew her off and dumped her.

Steven Harper

And you felt the appropriate response was to put your arms around her?

Yeah.

Ronnie Cooke

You do realize how this could look, don't you?

What, that I hugged a girl who was crying? Um...like I'm a nice guy?

Ronnie Cooke

You had your arms around a 17-year-old girl, the door was closed, and she was wearing a mini-skirt.

Well, I didn't pick out her clothes this morning.
