Jodie Abigail Landon : You realize your negative approach to everything is self-defeating, right?
Daria : Well, it's nice to know there's someone I can defeat.
Jodie Abigail Landon : I mean, you may spare yourself some pain by cutting everyone off, but you miss out on alot of good stuff too.
Daria : Look Jodie, I'm too smart and too sensitive to live in a world like ours, at a time like this, with a sister like mine. Maybe I do miss out on stuff, but this attitude is what works for me now.
Jodie Abigail Landon : Then you'll understand what works for me now. At home, I'm Jodie - I can say and do whatever feels right. But at school I'm The Queen of the Negros, the perfect African-American teen, the role-model for all the other African-American teens at Lawndale. Oops! Where'd they go? Believe me: I'd like to be more like you.
Daria : Well, I have to admit there are times when I'd like to be more like you.
Jodie Abigail Landon : Really?
Daria : I'm not saying all the time.

Jodie Abigail Landon : Hey! Just because some jack made you feel like the loser you are, don't take it out on me.
Graham : I'm not a loser! I have a 165 IQ.
Jodie Abigail Landon : Who cares? You're still boring and miserable. Try taking your head out of your butt for once, and open up your miopic little eyes, or doesn't your 165 IQ make you smart enough to see the way your really are?

Helen Barksdale Morgendorffer : So, Jodie, do you belong to any clubs?
Daria : You don't have to answer that.
Jodie Abigail Landon : I'm president of the French Club, vice president of Student Council, editor of yearbook, and I'm also on the tennis team.
Jake Morgendorffer : Daria, why aren't you on the tennis team?
Daria : Because it's classified as a sport.
