[about Frankie] Boy, that kid's really got a chip on his shoulder. I think it's his head.

Can I ask you something, Professor? Are you studying these kids sex lives, or you getting involved in it?

Cappy:
Just one thing, Professor, will you level with me? What's with the feather duster? The beard? You think it moves the chicks?
Prof. Robert O. Sutwell: No, it usually works the other way.
Cappy: I don't dig. You don't want to level with me?
Prof. Robert O. Sutwell: All right, I'll level with you. When I first started out at Harvard, I was the youngest professor at the university. I was so young that it was sickening. No one took me seriously. Every time when I opened my mouth to speak, my students laughed, the other professors laughed, even the janitors laughted. Well, I knew it couldn't go on for long before I would be fired by the dean who did not want a professor that his students didn't take seriously. So one day at lunch, I sat down in the student cafeteria and presented my problem to this old professor friend of mine. And without even glancing up from his soup, he said to me: "buy yourself a pair of glasses and grow a beard." So you see, all of this is just 18 years of professor windowdressing.
Cappy: Amazing how our lives parallel. You have that, and I have this.
[points to the goatee on his chin]
Cappy: You know why I grew this? I got a dimple in my chin and I didn't want anyone mistaking me for Kirk Douglas.
Prof. Robert O. Sutwell: But you don't look anything like Kirk Douglas.
Cappy: See? It works.

Well, you came to the right cat. If anything you want to know about these kids I can tell you the whole thing in two words - they're nuts.
