One to Grow On (1983–1989)

Perry King: Self

Quotes 

• Perry King : ...Now, I'm not a big accordion fan myself. But, when you think something isn't fair, throwing a fit is NOT the way to get your point across. Believe it or not, people WILL listen to your side of the story, if you just approach them the right way. So, instead of making like Attila the Hun, take a deep breath and try making sense instead.

  Perry King : ...Don't imitate EVERYTHING you see. If your dad has a beer after the game, so what? That doesn't mean YOU have to. He also goes to work every day, pays taxes and bills; you don't do THAT stuff, do you? Right now, do what's good for YOU. Instead of beer, cool it with fruit juice - or a tall glass of milk.

  Perry King : ...Girls, girls! Bragging's no way to keep a friendship rolling. Showing off only means that we really don't feel so good about ourselves, so we try to make somebody else feel even worse - and that's a lonely feeling. It's not what we have that makes us good people; it's how nice we really are. That's what being a buddy, and not a braggart, is all about.
