Quote context

[...]

- You see, the reason they want me to go is so that I'll forget about you. They figure you don't want me around, you don't wanna see me and if I go away for a while, maybe I'll get all this out of my mind.

- Maybe that's a good idea, Wilma. Maybe you ought to do that.

- Do you wanna get rid of me? Tell me the truth, Homer. Do you want me to forget about you?

- I want you to be free, Wilma. To live your own life. I don't want you tied down forever just because you've got a kind heart.

- Oh, Homer, why can't you ever understand the way things really are, the way I really feel? I keep trying to tell you.

- But you don't know, Wilma. You don't know what it'd be like to have to live with me, to have to face this every day, every night.

- But I can only find out by trying. And if it turns out I haven't courage enough, we'll soon know it.

- Wilma, you and I have been close to each other for a long time, haven't we? Ever since we were kids.

- Yes, Homer.

- I'm going upstairs to bed. I want you to come up and see for yourself what happens.

- All right, Homer.

- I've learned how to take this harness off.

Well, that's vanishing cream. This is a vanishing cream remover. I'll tell you how you can save money. If you don't put that on, then you don't need this to take that off.
Don't say it, chum. The customer's always right, so I'm fired. But this customer wasn't right.
How many times have I told you I hated you and believed it in my heart? How many times have you said you were sick and tired of me, that we were all washed up? How many times have we had to fall in love all over again?
