Ah, the parenting wisdom of Homer Simpson.

“Kids, you tried your best, and you failed miserably! The lesson is: never try.”

“Lisa, if you don’t like your job, you don’t quit! You go in there every single day, and do it really half-assed. That’s the _American_ Way!”

“STEALING?! How could you? Haven’t you learned anything from that guy that gives those sermons in church? Captain What’s-his-name? We live in a society of laws! Why do you think I took you to see all those _Police Academy_ movies, for FUN? Well, I didn’t hear anyone laughing, did you? …Except at that guy who made sound effects.”

On which topic, Nelson Muntz also contributed: “Shoplifting is a victimless crime, like punching someone in the dark.” (I guess he’d know both ways)
