Quotes
-
Principal Kelban : Field trips to the beach, drinking on the beach, a bed in your classroom, a screening of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1... quite a summer, Mr. Shoop.
Shoop : I tried to keep it interesting.
Phil Gills : I have his dismissal ready for your signature, sir.
Principal Kelban : Before I sign anything, I understand there are some people waiting to speak on Mr. Shoop's behalf.
Shoop : Really?
Principal Kelban : Come in.
[opens the door to Shoop's students and their parents and guardians]
Phil Gills : Mr. Kelban, you're not actually going to listen to these delinquents?
Principal Kelban : No, I'm going to listen to their parents. I'm Principal Kelban. Is there a spokesperson here?
Mr. Gremp : I guess I am. I'm Howard Gremp.
Principal Kelban : You're Chainsaw's father. Interesting boy.
Mr. Gremp : No, you can say it. He's a lunatic.
Chainsaw : Dad...
Mr. Gremp : Six weeks ago, I thought he had the IQ of a salad bar. His only interest in life was to make people sick. If my mother came to dinner, he would give the dog a third eye or an extra leg. Because of him, we stopped having kids. You can imagine the feeling when I saw him studying. The wife and I almost burst into tears.
Mrs. Frazier : David was doing his homework, too.
Mr. Gremp : It makes sense, they share the same brain.
Mrs. Green : Not only did Mr. Shoop get my daughter to read, he taught her to drive.
Mr. Winchester : He showed Kevin there's more to life than football. I'm not sure I agree, but it's possible.
