Seymour Black Quotes:

  • Arlene Black: [Of her 33-year marriage] You two need to know the truth. It's no picnic!

    Abby Willoughby: Were you in love in the beginning?

    Arlene Black: [simultaneously] No.

    Seymour Black: [simultaneously] Not so much.

    Ira Black: [unnerved] I thought you were madly in love.

    Arlene Black: That's what we told you when you were younger. It was a good story, it made you happy.

    Ira Black: You were never in love? That's... that's depressing!

    Seymour Black: That's why we didn't tell you.

    Arlene Black: You learn to love. You *learn* to love, because you're *stuck* with each other.

    Seymour Black: Well, not stuck. Um - *hinged*. Hinged! You're hinged together, so that you can still move a little, but at the end of the day, you're always together, through good and bad.

    Abby Willoughby: Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's *very* bad.

    Seymour Black: Hasn't been so bad, Arl.

    Arlene Black: It's been bad, Sy. Trust me, Abby.

  • Arlene Black: Marriage is not something to be taken lightly.

    Abby Willoughby: I don't take it lightly, I just have a really good feeling about this.

    Arlene Black: Ugh, sweetheart, it isn't about feelings. Marriage is a contract.

    Abby Willoughby: It isn't about feelings?

    Ira Black: Marriage isn't about feelings?

    Arlene Black: No, it is, of course it is.

    Seymour Black: Yeah, it's about feeling terrible and criticized.

    Arlene Black: [coldly] Sy, don't start.
