Ricky Schroder: Ricky Stratton

Quotes 

• Grandpa Stratton : Richard, appropriate greetings and felicitations.

  Ricky Stratton : You don't have to get all mushy, now.

• Edward Stratton III : Thirteen candles, son - you're now officially a teenager.

  Ricky Stratton : Yeah - from here on out, we're livin' fast!

• Ricky Stratton : Are you two gonna fight, and tear each other apart? Or... are you gonna help make a kid's birthday wish come true?

• Grandpa Stratton : I am trying to help him, by pointing out those areas in which his behavior can be improved; he should emerge from this process a better man.

  Ricky Stratton : Better? Meaning more like you?

  Grandpa Stratton : God willing, yes.

• Ricky Stratton : This is really what I wanted! All of us getting along - just happy to be together. You know, for the first time in my life, I feel like one of the Waltons.

• Ricky Stratton : You couldn't do it, could you? All I asked for was one night without fighting - and you promised you'd do it. Sure, you faked it for a few minutes... but then you went right on fighting with each other. I don't like it, I don't understand it - and I'm up to here with it.

• Ricky Stratton : [to himself, as Edward, Kate, and Grandpa argue]  So maybe they're not the Waltons...

  [He cracks a smile] 

  Ricky Stratton : ... but they're mine.
