Memorable quotes

Skinner: I don't think suspension or expulsion will do the trick. I think it behooves us all to consider... deportation.
Marge: Deportation? You mean, kick Bart out of the country?
Homer: Eh, hear him out, Marge.

Skinner: You wouldn't be getting a French boy, you'd be getting an Albanian.
Homer: You mean, all white with pink eyes?

Bart: Ah, the life of a frog. That's the life for me.

Homer: Always remember that you're representing your country. I guess what I'm saying is don't mess up France the way you messed up your room.

Skinner: You might find his accent peculiar. Certain aspects of his culture may seem absurd, perhaps even offensive. But I urge you all to give little Adil the benefit of the doubt. This way, and only in this way, do we hope to better understand our backward neighbors throughout the world.

Homer: See these? American donuts. Glazed, powdered, and raspberry-filled. Now, how's that for freedom of choice?

Homer: Hey, Lenny, does this place have one of those plutonium isolation deals?
Lenny: Yeah, in Sector 12.
Homer: Sector 12?
Lenny: Third floor, by the candy machine.
Homer: Oh, that Sector 12!

Bart: (in French) You gotta help me. These two guys work me night and day. They don't feed me. They make me sleep on the floor. They put anti-freeze in the wine, and they gave my red hat to the donkey.
Policeman: Anti-freeze in the wine? That is a very serious crime.

Bart: So, basically, I met one nice French person.

Bart: (Speaking French) My father, what buffoon.
Homer: Hear that marge! My boy speaks French!
