Hiro Kanagawa: Principal H. James Kwan

Quotes 

• Coach Walt Arnold : How's my favorite football fan?

  Principal H. James Kwan : Coach, one of the players accused of cheating has come forward and said you supplied them with the tests.

  Coach Walt Arnold : Oh. And which boy told you that little piece of fiction?

  Principal H. James Kwan : I'm not at liberty to say.

  Coach Walt Arnold : And I'm guessing you already went to the school board and asked them to suspend me.

  Principal H. James Kwan : You have a lot of friends in high places.

  Coach Walt Arnold : I should have. I coached most of them. You don't understand. I'm an institution. Who'd you think the school board was gonna believe? Some cheating little brat who's just trying to cover his own ass? Or the man who's been leading this school to victory for 25 years?

  Principal H. James Kwan : They may not believe one, but if I can get all of them to step forward, the board will have no choice, they'll suspend you from coaching for the rest of your life.

  Coach Walt Arnold : You will *NOT* bring me down!

  Principal H. James Kwan : [Arnold's TV inexplicably catches fire]  What the hell's going on here, Coach?

• Coach Walt Arnold : Principal Kwan, what brings you to the sweat box?

  Principal H. James Kwan : We've got a problem, Coach.

• Coach Walt Arnold : Cheating, huh? My boys?

  Principal H. James Kwan : Seven of them, on their math midterm. Which means they're ineligible for next Friday's game.

  Coach Walt Arnold : Well, just keep it quiet for a couple of weeks and, uh, we'll deal with it in the off-season.

  Principal H. James Kwan : I'm not sweeping a major academic breach under the carpet so you can win a game.

  Coach Walt Arnold : You've been here, what, six months? I've been here 25 years. We're not talking about just a game. We're talking about my legacy.

  Principal H. James Kwan : I don't care about your legacy. I'm here to educate young people.

  Coach Walt Arnold : I've been educating young people all my life. You know how many boys have gone on to college because of me? Have gotten good jobs on my recommendations?

  Principal H. James Kwan : I know most people think you walk on water, Coach. I think you're dangerous. I've seen your temper. I've seen your methods. Just because you win doesn't make you right. On Monday, I'm suspending the players. End of story.
