TV Quote of the Day (‘All in the Family,’ As Edith Recalls Archie’s Past Thanksgiving Heroism)

[Archie saves the life of a passenger in a cab he’s driving by administering “mouth-to-mouth restitution”—unaware that this “lady” is a female impersonator.]

Edith Bunker [played by Jean Stapleton]: “I ain't been so proud of you since Uncle Willie cut his finger carving the Thanksgiving turkey and you stopped the bleeding by tying it up with the string they used to tie up the turkey's you-know-what with.”

Archie Bunker [played by Carroll O’Connor]: “How can you do that all in one breath?”— All in the Family, Season 6, Episode 4, “Archie the Hero,” original air date Sept. 29, 1975, teleplay by Lou Derman, Bill Davenport, and Johnny Speight, directed by Paul Bogart
