Only Fools and Horses Quote
Rodney: Cassie seemed so fragile. I wanted to cuddle her and talk to her about it - but I was frightened I might - sort of break her.
Del Boy: No. She's strong, Rodney. It's a dropped stitch in life's tapestry. That's what Mum used to say when things went wrong.
Rodney: Yeah, I suppose that's about the strength of it when you think about it.
Del Boy: Of course it is. You two'll pick up the bits and pieces and be cruising down that big highway again. Cassandra wants to talk about it, she told Raquel.
Rodney: What do I say to her?
Del Boy: All the things you just told me - well, you can leave the bit about the hairs out. You go home and have a heart-to-heart with her right now. And while you're there, you ask her if she fancies coming round for dinner tonight.
Rodney: Yeah, I'd love to Del, but there is the little matter that I'm stuck in a lift.
Del Boy: Oh yeah. (stands up and opens the control panel) Let's have a look in here.
Rodney: Your claustrophobia cleared up quick, didn't it?
Del Boy: Yeah, I seem to be over the worst.
Rodney: (stands up) Almost as quick as that flu you had this morning.
Del Boy: Well, these things come and go, don't they? Oh look, there's a little switch in here. (presses a switch, and the lift begins moving again) There you go.
Rodney: (angry) You git! You stopped it!
Del Boy: (smiling) It was the only way I could get you talking! You can't run away in a broken lift.
Rodney: You git!
Del Boy: No. She's strong, Rodney. It's a dropped stitch in life's tapestry. That's what Mum used to say when things went wrong.
