Since the Family Channel has stopped showing the Wonder Years, I’ve decided to post the WY quotes which I’ve accumulated over the past few months. These excerpts are the Chicken-Soup-for-the-Soul type of uplifting quotes. You just can’t get these same type of quotes from any other TV show.
Wonder Years Quotes:

Episode: “Private Butthead”:
�Love is never simple. Not for fathers and sons. We spend our lives full of hope and expectations. And most of the time we are bound to fail. But that afternoon as I watched my father sheltering his son against a future that was so unsure, all I knew was they didn�t want to let each other down anymore.�
Episode: �Hero�
�I guess magic doesn�t last forever not matter how much you wish it would. Destiny can turn on a dime and cut like a knife.�
�Some heroes pass through your life and disappear in a flash. You get over it. But the good ones. The real ones. The ones who count�.stay with you for the long haul. The thing is after all these years I couldn�t tell you the score of the game. What I remember is sitting in that diner, up late being young. Drinking coffee with the only real hero I ever knew. My Dad, Jack Arnold. Number 1.�
Episode: �Carnal Knowledge�
�If there�s one thing every kid needs growing up, it�s a best friend. Someone you trust. Someone who trusts you. Someone you measure yourself against. You go through everything together. Important things. Stupid things. Things that matter. Things that don�t.�
Episode: �Homecoming�
�They say men are children. But sometimes children are men. Maybe that�s where the confusion lies. All I knew was, that night the world seemed suddenly very big. And I felt very small.�
�1972 was a crazy time. Kids played football, drove cars, went to school, celebrated life. While soldiers, heroes, their brothers struggled to find their way home from war. And young boys watched and grew wiser in their dreams.�
Episode: �The Test�
�If there�s one thing every kid learns growing up, it�s that life is a series of risks. It�s a cause and effect relationship. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Still, with the proper guidance we learn to deal with the risks. Pretty soon we set out into the world, sure in our options, confident in our choices.�
�Like some kind of biblical curse, the SATs had descended on our class, reducing even the most intelligent among us to a state of flop sweats.�
Episode: �Math Class�
�There are times in life when you think you�re lost. When every turn you take seems wrong. Then just for a moment, you see a light. And so I began that long climb into the light. Only this time I wasn�t alone.�
Episode: �The Pimple�
�I was 13 years old. Being self conscious was a full time job.�
Episode: �Math Class Squared�
Kevin: So what�s wrong with a �B� ?
Paul: A �B� is like kissing your sister.
