Which Billy Madison Quote Did You Relate to the Most?
Billy Madison is the movie’s title character, and in the movie, he’s a man-child spoiled by his wealthy businessman father. To change his ways, his dad challenges him to retake all his exams and pass every grade again in only 24 weeks!
This is quite hard for Billy Madison, considering that he could only pass those tests in the first place through his father’s influence. He goofs around, says idiotic things, and doesn’t take things seriously at first. However, with the threat of their family business falling into the hands of a conniving associate, Eric, Billy slowly changes his attitude.
Billy eventually won against Eric. But, instead of gloating over his win, he did what was best for their company at the time. He left it in the hands of his father’s trusted and loyal operations manager and continued studying in college to become a teacher.
Though the movie is funny, absurd, and unrealistic in all senses, we can’t help but love it! What more do we need when Billy Madison has the comedy and the inspiring lessons we need in life? So, keep this list of quotes in your bookmarks whenever you need a laugh or words of encouragement!
