Quotes 

• Topanga Lawrence : I should go.

  Cory Matthews : No. Topanga, you're not leaving your own wedding reception.

  Topanga Lawrence : [to Amy]  I'm sorry for any pain I've caused.

  [leaves the house] 

  Cory Matthews : Topanga, wait.

  [to Amy] 

  Cory Matthews : How could you say that to her?

  Amy Matthews : I'm sorry.

  Cory Matthews : You're sorry? So for fifteen years, you've been lying to me?

  Amy Matthews : No.

  Cory Matthews : No, you've been lying to me about how you feel about us and you've been lying to me about how you feel about her.

  Amy Matthews : I want what I believe is best for you, Cory and Topanga...

  Cory Matthews : What's best for us, Mom, is for you to trust us! I love her! All right? I will always love her. And you know something else? We didn't get married because she wanted you to be there!

  [leaves the house as well] 

• Amy Matthews : [during her toast at Cory and Topanga's wedding reception]  I have watched these two grow up. Boy, have I. And here they are now, adults, just fresh out of high school. Don't know anything about the world at all. I'm sorry. I can't do this. This is a mistake and I do not support it.

  [to Topanga] 

  Amy Matthews : Why couldn't you have just gone to Yale?

  Eric Matthews : [raises his glass happily]  Here, here!

• Amy Matthews : [to Topanga]  It's very hard for a mother to think that another woman is going to take her place with her little boy.

  Topanga Lawrence : I could never take your place. I just love your little boy, Mrs. Matthews.

  Amy Matthews : Amy. Use my name.

  Topanga Lawrence : Amy.

  Amy Matthews : And if there is going to be another person to take my place, I want it to be you.

  Topanga Lawrence : Thank you.

• George Feeny : I couldn't sleep.

  Alan Matthews : Why not?

  George Feeny : Well, you got all the lights on, everybody's yelling and Eric parked his car in my garden.

  Eric Matthews : So? What the hell do you care? You're moving. Go ahead, Feeny, retire. Take care of yourself. That's what you're best at.

  Amy Matthews : The man has given the last 40 years of his life teaching people.

  Eric Matthews : Don't care. Kill his flowers. Kill them.

• Amy Matthews : [about Cory and Topanga]  They're too young to even think about marriage.

  Alan Matthews : I understand that you don't want our little boy to make a mistake, but he is not a little boy anymore.

  Amy Matthews : Please. I still lay out his clothes and what she wants to do...

  Alan Matthews : Topanga.

  Amy Matthews : Right. What she wants to do...

  Alan Matthews : Topanga. Use her name.

  Amy Matthews : Right. What Topanga wants to do is...

  Alan Matthews : Lay his clothes out for him.

  Amy Matthews : What?

  Alan Matthews : Take care of him. Be there for him. Amy, do you think that this would bother you as much if this was some girl who couldn't take care of him as well as you have? Do you really think that Topanga isn't right for him?

  Amy Matthews : It isn't about that. They are too young. He's not ready. I'm not ready.

  [brushes away her tears] 

  Amy Matthews : Yes, she's right for Cory. She loves him. And yes, she... she'll take care of him and he'll be happy. Oh, God. I'm jealous of her.
