O God, ease our suffering in this, our moment of great dispair. Yea, admit this good and decent woman into thine arms in the flock in thine heavenly area, up there. And Moab, he laid its down by the band of the Canaanites, and yea, though the Hindus speak of karma, I implore you: give her... give her a break.

Clark... Clark... This is a serious matter. I'll do it myself!

Honey, I'm not an ordained minister; I'm doing my best, OK?

30, 31 years, whatever it took...

ETA: Sonofabith - Vacation and Mr. Mom were released the same month (although Mr. Mom was limited in July, wide in August), and the month after Trading Places? That was a great summer of comedy, no doubt.
