• A featured quote for February was needed! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 13:19, February 3, 2019 (EST)

"Diatribe of a Mad Housewife"

"I'll have to read Marge's book. And I swore never to read again after "To Kill A Mockingbird" gave me no useful advice on killing mockingbirds. It did teach me not to judge a man based on the color of his skin, but what good does that do me?"

―Homer

Great, funny quote. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 13:01, December 6, 2018 (EST)

"The Front"

"All right, brain, you don't like me and I don't like you. But let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer."

―Homer Simpson

Funny quote. The Solar Dragon 15:44, April 30, 2019 (EDT)

1. Nice one. And with three quick lines of dialog, not excessively lengthy. -- Mythigator (talk) 22:57, April 30, 2019 (EDT)

"To Courier with Love"

"You need to read between the lines."

―Marge

"Why? There's just white space there."

―Homer

Rejected

"Itchy & Scratchy Land"

"There's no need to murmur, ma'am. Here at Itchy and Scratchy Land, we're just as concerned about violence as you are. That's why we're always careful to show the consequences of deadly mayhem so that we may educate as well as horrify."

―Park engineer

"When do you show the consequences? On TV, that mouse pulled out that cat's lungs and played them like a bagpipe. But in the next scene, the cat was breathing comfortably."

―Marge

"Just like in real life. Hey look over there!"

―Park engineer

1. Feels too long to me, and not that great a payoff. The Solar Dragon 19:03, September 9, 2018 (EDT)
2. Too long. (see below) -- Mythigator (talk) 22:57, April 30, 2019 (EDT)

Comments

• It would work fine to just quote the park engineer, starting with "Here at Itchy and Scratchy Land" and ending with "educate as well as horrify". That's where the punch really is. -- Mythigator (talk) 22:57, April 30, 2019 (EDT)
