David Wohl: Psychiatrist

Quotes 

• Psychiatrist : How do you know about Grant College?

  Alex P. Keaton : My sister Mallory goes there.

  Alex P. Keaton : [scoffs]  Grant College - the school that offers a course in the opening of an umbrella.

  Psychiatrist : I got an "A" in that course.

• Alex P. Keaton : There are winners, and there are losers in life - and there's no getting around that.

  Psychiatrist : So... you think your father's a weak man, then?

  Alex P. Keaton : ...No.

  Psychiatrist : But you just said...

  Alex P. Keaton : Just let me finish.

  Psychiatrist : Sorry.

  Alex P. Keaton : ...I used to think that way; I'm embarrassed by it now... that I could be so blind to his strength. He has great love, my father - not just for his family, but for life. He doesn't have to make you wrong for him to be right; he doesn't have to make you a loser to be a winner himself... I wish I was more like my father.

• Psychiatrist : Do you believe in God, Alex?
