Quotes 

• Jane : You tell him the truth or I will.

  Tess : No, you won't. You wouldn't hurt a fly and you definitely wouldn't hurt me, I'm your sister.

  Jane : That was yesterday. Today you're just some bitch who broke my heart and cut up my mother's wedding dress.

• Tess : [about their childhood dog]  Not a day goes by that I don't think about that bag of fleas. Good old Tory.

  George : Hey, Jane, how come you never mentioned Tory?

  Jane : I don't know. I guess I repressed the memory of *Toby*.

  Tess : Yeah, his name was Toby, but I called him Tory because I had a lisp.

  Jane : A lisp that turned your B's to R's?

• Tess : How could you let this happen to me?

  [begins reading from newspaper article] 

  Tess : "If Jane is the prototypical accommodating bridesmaid, then her sister Tess is cast as the overbearing, overindulged bride-to-be who at any moment might start stomping around Manhattan, breathing fire, and swatting planes from the sky."

  Jane : I had no idea he was writing an article about me.

  Tess : You? He called me Bridezilla! In the New York freaking Journal! I could tear him apart limb from limb!

• Jane : I... I thought you were wearing Mom's dress.

  Tess : It is Mom's dress. Well, parts of it. It was just so old-fashioned, you know? So we could just use a few pieces here and there.

  Jane : Parts?

  Tess : Mm-hmm. Yeah. Like this, and the lace.

  Jane : You cut up Mom's wedding dress?

  Tess : Well, technically Mary-Ella did. But don't worry. We saved you the rest. And, I mean, if you want, you can wear this... as long as a silhouette's still in fashion. Mary-Ella, I think just the bottom needs to be hemmed a little bit.

  Jane : No. No, no, no, no. No!

  Tess : Okay, fine. You don't have to wear it.

  Jane : God, you don't care. You don't care about anyone but yourself, do you? I have made excuses for you because Mom died when you were little. But enough is enough!

  Tess : I have no idea what you're talking about.

  Jane : I can't undo what you've just done. But I won't let you hurt George. He thinks he knows the truth about you, but all he knows are the lies you've told him. You even had Pedro keep a secret from George. You tell him the truth right now! He is not one of your Eurotrash boyfriends, Tess. He is a good person. And you cannot start a relationship based on lies.

  Tess : Oh, really, Jane? And you know this because of all your successful relationships?
