Quotes

• Reverend Putty: No God, you're a weirdo, your gift is boring.

• Clay: Nudity is a horrible thing, and should be used as a last resort. Remember the 11th Commandment: "Thou shalt be ashamed of thy natural anatomy."

• Orel: Gosh, you sure are right, dad.
  Clay: Well I suppose that's why they call me Dad, and not Mom.

• Orel: I was just trying to be good, so that you would love me more than you do now.
  Clay: Oh, Orel. I could never love you more. People only have so much love in them, and I'm afraid I have to divide mine up among at least a dozen people.
  Orel: Oh.
  Clay: But remember, Son, I love you enough.
  Orel: I love you enough too, Dad.
