Quotes
-
Cory Matthews : My homework is going to be unbelievably late this week.
George Feeny : Yeah, what else is new.
-
Topanga Lawrence : Cory, I feel like we're really distant.
[the scene shows Cory sitting on the other side of the waiting room]
Cory Matthews : Why would you say that?
Topanga Lawrence : Because for the first time in my life, I feel like I don't know how to give you what you need.
Cory Matthews : Why not?
Topanga Lawrence : Because we can't go through life together if you expect me to be able to change what's real for you.
Cory Matthews : Well, you used to be able to.
Topanga Lawrence : We were kids! Nothing bad ever happened! The worst thing that happened was that your Pop-Tart fell on the ground.
Cory Matthews : Mmm-hmm. And you held it up to the sky, and you said, "God made dirt. Dirt won't hurt." Right?
Topanga Lawrence : But it was still dirty.
Cory Matthews : Yeah, but I ate it anyway. I didn't have to, but I did because you said to. Now, I want you to make everything better, Topanga.
Topanga Lawrence : We can't have that relationship anymore.
Cory Matthews : Why?
Topanga Lawrence : I'm not like that anymore.
Cory Matthews : Why not?
Topanga Lawrence : I don't know how to be like that anymore.
-
Topanga Lawrence : Would you rather I be like the old strange Topanga?
Cory Matthews : [Topanga makes the dance moves] No, it's not like I don't like... the new strange Topanga... I mean, it's important for us to grow, but I just... I don't wanna lose what's so special about you.
Topanga Lawrence : You never will.
[puts lipgloss all over her face, shaped like a heart]
Topanga Lawrence : Because, I've made you memories. And they will always be here to remind me.
Shawn Hunter : Use a mirror, babe.
-
Cory Matthews : [to Mr. Feeny] Do I not cherish Topanga?
George Feeny : Oh, here we go into Coryland.
Cory Matthews : Did I not raise her and bring her into my home?
George Feeny : Who talks like you?
-
George Feeny : Topanga Lawrence is one of the best people I know.
Cory Matthews : I know. So what's happening to her? You've known her as long as I have.
George Feeny : She's growing up, Cory. So are you.
Cory Matthews : Why does she have to grow now? At a time like this?
-
Topanga Lawrence : Cory, this is bad. There isn't anyone who can make it better.
Shawn Hunter : [Shawn walks through the elevator doors of the hospital] Cory!
Cory Matthews : Shawnie!
[they hug each other]
Shawn Hunter : Look, everything's going to be all right.
Cory Matthews : You think?
Shawn Hunter : I know.
-
Cory Matthews : [to Shawn] So, you're tired of tumbling, tumbleweed?
Shawn Hunter : Yeah. There's too much going on here to be someplace else.
-
Cory Matthews : You know, I think everything's going to be okay.
Topanga Lawrence : I hope so.
Cory Matthews : What do you mean you hope so? You think something bad's gonna happen?
Topanga Lawrence : Something bad has already happened.
Cory Matthews : I know. I just I want you to make everything better.
Topanga Lawrence : How do I do that?
Cory Matthews : Just be here with me.
Topanga Lawrence : I'm sitting right next to you.
Cory Matthews : I know, but I don't feel like you are. Now, I want us to be Cory and Topanga again because then everything is okay.
-
Topanga Lawrence : [to Cory] How does holding your hand make everything okay?
Cory Matthews : I just want us to be the way we used to be. You know, Valentine's Day used to be such a big deal to you.
Topanga Lawrence : What does Valentine's Day have to do with this?
Cory Matthews : And I was the one who didn't want to hold hands, but you were the one who said that holding hands is like touching souls.
Topanga Lawrence : How do you remember that? I said that years ago when I was a child.
Cory Matthews : I remember everything you said because it was important to me. Why don't you say stuff like that anymore?
Topanga Lawrence : Cory, look around you. Do you recognize where you are?
Cory Matthews : Take my hand.
Topanga Lawrence : We're in the hospital. This is real. The reality is that your little brother is back there fighting for his life.
Cory Matthews : No. Reality is this hand.
Topanga Lawrence : I don't like it when you use us to hide from the rest of life, Cory.
Cory Matthews : I don't like it that you're not Topanga anymore.
-
Topanga Lawrence : [to Shawn about Cory] Will you please talk to him? I can't get through to him right now. You're his best friend. He'll listen to you.
Shawn Hunter : Okay, let me handle this. Man, are we going to have fun with this kid.
Cory Matthews : The kid's going to be our slave.
Shawn Hunter : Oh, I'm going to teach him everything I know.
Cory Matthews : Then I'll bail him out of jail.
-
Cory Matthews : Hey, Mr. Feeny, I think you're going to have another Matthews to teach.
Shawn Hunter : Maybe he'll have a kid like me to sit next to.
Cory Matthews : He won't have to.
Shawn Hunter : Why not?
Cory Matthews : You'll still be there.
[he and Shawn laugh]
-
Cory Matthews : Hi, Josh. I'm Cory. You have to get better, okay? I always wanted a little brother. This is Topanga. She's going to be your sister.
Topanga Lawrence : Hey, Josh. Look, you got to let the medicine get you better, okay? You've got a lot of people who really love you. Please get better, Josh.
