[on Nikolai] How thrilled are we that we never have to call him "Daddy"?
Thank God she snapped out of it.
[about the Bennett funeral] Can't Rico do it?
I believe his exact words were: "No fucking way. I'm not your fucking gopher any more."
[about Maya] You guys, she took the most amazing poop this morning!
Who, Lisa?
We despise ourselves so much that we consider our own point of view as trivial. But that's bullshit! That's your father talking!
Chickpeas give me gas.
This is an unusually gassy family!
In the beginning, if you hate something, it's good, because you don't recognize the beauty of your own truth.
I think it's really cool that you live in a funeral home.
Believe me, it's not.
Are you kidding? I'm jealous. It's totally weird … and excellent and perfect for when they write your biography.
It's hard sometimes, relationships aren't easy. You just have to work at it everyday. Can't expect everything to be perfect all the time, and can't get shaken when it isn't. If there's a moment when i feel like i'm in prison, I just have to think about all those moments when it feels safe, and remind myself that those moments outweigh the prison moments.
Being alone is the prison, just thinking about yourself, just trapped in this fucking vortex, always watching yourself. Which, i suppose, is okay if you're interesting. The truth is: nobody is that interesting.
Oh, Arthur, hi.
Hi Ruth. Did you have a good time stalking me this morning?
What are you talking about?
Oh, please. If you like following people so much, why don't you join the CIA or the Moonies? Or why don't you go to the actual fucking moon and mind your own moon business, you … freak!
Nate, you know, this isn't The Matrix. The rest of us who don't have babies, we're real.
I have this theory that every now and then a person should get what they want right when they want it. It keeps you optimistic.
[on Marv] He never forgave your father for being such a success or for giving up Chanukah.
I remember Bern liking that poem.
And I remember Bern thinking you were an absolute asshole.
(Quoting Daddy's Book) There is no death, there is only birth and birth and birth and birth. Consider the trees, that allow the birds to pirch and fly away, without calling them back. If your heart can be like a tree, you'll be close to the way. When the multitude laughs at you, you are blessed. This is what Daddy wants us to know: I depart as air. I shake my white locks at the runaway sun. I bequeath my self to the dirt, to grow from the grass I love. If you want me again, look for me under your boot-soles. You will hardly know who I am, or what I mean, but I shall be good health to you nevertheless. Missing me one place, search another. I stop somewhere, waiting for you. [From Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass]
Your friendship has so much value for me. Anything more would be unprofessional.
I know, I know.
Please don't kiss me again.
I never will, never.
Friends?
Friends. [Arthur moves forward to hug Ruth, but she kisses him. Arthur pulls away surprised and runs out of the room. Some children run into the kitchen. Ruth places a tray of snacks on the table] You'll have to help yourselves. I'm out of control.
