Quotes
-
David Mason : [steps out of the bathroom in matching red and white Hawaiian shirt and shorts] Here I am, the real me. Neat, but not gaudy.
[his wife stares at him]
David Mason : What's the matter?
Elizabeth Mason : I think I'm gonna be seasick.
David Mason : How can you be seasick? We haven't even left the dock yet.
-
Elizabeth Mason : David, what if any one of the kids needs us and we're not there?
David Mason : Well, then they'll just have to muddle through without us.
-
David Mason : It's not even noon yet, don't you think you're rushing the cocktail hour?
Elizabeth Mason : I'm bored!
David Mason : Lord.
Elizabeth Mason : David, you've still got your work, but I don't have mine anymore. As you pointed out, the children are grown up and gone, and I'm bored!
David Mason : Oh please, Elizabeth.
Elizabeth Mason : No, no, you're right. The magic is gone! All 30 years' worth. This may not be easy for you to swallow, but you were never the magic the children were, and I thank you for that. All I ever was to you was chief cook, and hostess, with sleep-in privileges. The children were my life, because without them I wouldn't have had any life at all. Because you were always out to lunch. Now all of a sudden it's just you and me, babe, just the two of us, and I'm sorry David, but that would *really* have to be magic.
David Mason : Look Elizabeth, I really don't want to hear this from you, not in this way.
Elizabeth Mason : You can dish it out but you can't take it!
