The Butcher's Wife (1991)
Leo Lemke:
My wife is going off the deep end... a short trip for her.
Marina Lemke: Folks call me Marina and I'm a clairvoyant.
Robyn Graves: Why do we waste our time with men!
Grace: [who is a lesbian] Not all of us do.
Leo Lemke: [reading grafetti on window] We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars...
Marina Lemke: Love is the leap that won't be denied.
Leo Lemke: Love's made a young man of me.
Marina Lemke: Destiny has a way of just working itself out.
Marina Lemke: Love is waiting for you behind a friendly face.
Dr. Alex Tremor: [at the end of an argument] And I told you I'm uncomfortable with the term shrink.
Robyn Graves: *Shrink*!
Dr. Alex Tremor: Can we talk about this rationally?
Robyn Graves: No. Can you fight like a man instead of a shrink?
Marina Lemke: It's beautiful!
Leo Lemke: It's vandalism!
Dr. Alex Tremor: Did you forget our appointment?
Eugene: I got a job now. I don't need a shrink anymore.
Marina Lemke: Eugene, honey, I don't think he likes being called that.
Eugene: I'm just a troubled kid, Doc.
Trendoid: I need veal chops. Lots of them. Now.
[Marina hands her package]
Trendoid: What's this?
Marina Lemke: Veal chops. Lots of them. Now.
Leo Lemke: *Wow*.
Marina Lemke: Well, what I say and what people hear aren't always the same thing. Don't you find that in your calling, Doctor?
Marina Lemke: That boy's tongue is long enough to cut his throat.
Eugene: I was just gonna say that.
Marina Lemke: What's meant to be just can't be changed.
Dr. Alex Tremor: We're supposed to relax and have fun. God damn it.
Dr. Alex Tremor: No, no, no, I'm always interested when my friends show early signs of dimensia praecox.
Robyn Graves: [as Harper on TV]
[gunshot]
Robyn Graves: Oh, oh! Oh, Chauncey! Chauncey! I told you one of us would end up hurt.
[pause]
Robyn Graves: Why does everything I touch... die?
Molly: It's the gun, sweetheart.
[turns off TV set]
Molly: The *gun*!
Dr. Alex Tremor: How can I help you, Leo?
Leo Lemke: I don't need your help. I'm perfectly normal.
Marina Lemke: You know, you don't know zip about love or life, Doctor. I don't need you strewing your learning all over me.
Dr. Alex Tremor: [talking to self in mirror, shaving] You ended up skating in the park witha patient. It's class countertransferance. You allowed her to manipulate you into a vulnerable - nevermind unprofessional - situation where she controlled you. This is freshman psychology, Alex.
[cuts chin]
Dr. Alex Tremor: Oh, oh, good! Oh, good! Good! Dr. Tremor, don't blow a graet career on a cute piece of ass. You keep your dick in your pants, your id in check, and you remember we have a mission in this world.
Stella Keefover: I think I really owe this one to that psychic.
Dr. Alex Tremor: I thought we dealt with that.
Stella Keefover: Don't worry, it's not like I'm cured or anything.
Dr. Alex Tremor: Good. Well, not good...
Grace: Alex thinks I'm insane.
Robyn Graves: It's his favorite diagnosis.
Marina Lemke: I'll be the one who's gonna decide who my husband should marry!
Dr. Alex Tremor: Can't you see how dangerous you are?
Marina Lemke: You say that listening to your heart and trusting what you feel, is that what you're calling dangerous? You know what, I hope I am contagious 'cause life isn't about your damn books and theories. You know what, life is life, and it's messy, and it's complicated, andyou know what it takes guts!
[hits with pillow]
Marina Lemke: That's not something you're gonna find in any book. And you know what, just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's crazy.
