Quotes 

• [Everyone's stunned at Ted's sudden return to normalcy] 

  Murray Slaughter : What happened?

  Mary Richards : Well, I guess this experience, this feeling must go away.

  Lou Grant : Yeah. I just remembered. The same thing happened in the war. During combat I never held life more dearly. But the feeling started to go away the minute the Germans stopped shooting at me. I never forgave them for that. I guess it always wears off.
