Quote by Chris Pueyo

“Pronto comenzamos a dudar de la cigüeña de París, de dónde somos y cómo hemos llegado hasta aquí. Nos perdemos en el terreno de responsabilidades, el Coco no está, nos dormimos tranquilos, terminan los infantilismos, y con ellos, los gusanos de seda. Nos parten la corona de papel albal, aprendemos a despedirnos y dejamos de tirarnos por el tobogán.”

George Jefferson. As long as he was on 'All in the Family', he was just somebody who made Archie Bunker's story more interesting. He didn't have anything of his own. He didn't have a plot or supporting characters. I don't know if you ever even got to see his house. But after he got his own show, George had his own living room and kitchen... and bedroom, I think.

“She raised her hand, bony fingers spread. “Don’t worry. She is supposed to cry. Her life will never be the same. You can’t give her everything.” I realized what Rajima meant. Until that moment, I had been almost exclusively providing everything Krishna could want or need. I was her sole succor and haven. But her needs were changing.
