- Quotes
Caroline Miller: Now, you can look at this picture for 60 seconds and I want you to tell me everything that's wrong with it. Okay?
Malcolm: The man only has four fingers.
Caroline Miller: Right, but this time I want you to really take your time and really look at...
Malcolm: The car's shadow's going the wrong way, the steering wheel's on the wrong side, there's no brake pedal, the words in the mirror should be backwards, the man's watch wouldn't say twelve o'clock if he was looking at a sunset, and I have red paint on my ass. That's right - red paint all over my ass.
