Well, cats and kittens, it’s been quite a few weeks since your last installment of Quotation Marks. I could blame the turkey, mistletoe, and other seasonal excuses, but the truth is, there wasn’t much on TV to quote. This first week back marks a collection of quotes dating back to the last time we were all here. The good news is that I’ve probably missed a lot, so I’m depending on you to tell me all of the good stuff I’ve missed in the comments.
