Quotes

If You Only Knew

Edit
  • Parker Concorde: [apartment hunting] So, you don't have a problem rooming with guys?
  • Samantha: No. I mean, before David it was Dean, and then before Dean it was Philip, and before Philip... Well, anyway, you get the point. Yeah, I... I feel safer living with a man. Plus, I made some great friends.
  • Parker Concorde: So, you're not worried about things turning... romantic?
  • Samantha: Romantic?
  • Parker Concorde: I mean, you're very... You're a very attractive woman.
  • Samantha: Oh, thank you, Parker. That's why I only live with men who are gay.
  • Parker Concorde: This is Matt. And Troy. They've been here the longest, which is not saying much since the employees here have the shelf live of sushi.
  • Jack: Yeah, what's gonna happen when all you want to do is the filthy nasty with her and all she wants from you is an opinion on which earrings she should wear with a dress?
  • Troy: Baby, I smell some gossip. I smell big, fat, stinking, juicy gossip.
  • Matt: Troy, my friend, you have no idea.
  • Jack: [as Boris, Parker's Russian boyfriend, checking out Sam's paintings] Oh, it's very nice, um, pictures.
  • Samantha: In our country we call them paintings.
  • Jack: [checking out her behind] Panties.
  • Samantha: No, paintings.
  • Jack: Panties.
  • Samantha: [correctively] PAIN-TINGS.
  • Jack: Pain-ties.
  • Jack: [as Boris] What is the large rush? We am talking with Sam to get to know each other.
  • Jack: [as Boris, thinly disguising his interest in Sam's breasts] Oh, this was an enormous, large, very good pleasure for me, and I'm looking very forward to the next time that I eat you.
  • Samantha: That's the great thing about painting. If you don't like something, you just paint right over it and start fresh.
  • Kate: Men are just giant artichokes. They're prickly and hairy and hard and... until you get to the heart.
  • Parker Concorde: Which is the best part.
  • Kate: Are you SURE you're gay?
  • Samantha: He is sweet, isn't he? You ever had your ass waxed?
  • Jack: Turn gay, attract women.
  • Parker Concorde: I know. It's weird. Y'know, ever since I've been... gay... I've felt more comfortable around women than I've ever been.
  • Jack: Well, of course. You got nothing at stake, you know? You're just waiting for Sam and her lawyer boyfriend to break up. Until then, no other woman in the world exists for you.
  • Parker Concorde: That is so not true.
  • [a young woman jogs past them]
  • Jack: Oh, yeah? What'd you think of her?
  • Parker Concorde: Who?
  • Jack: I rest my case.
  • Samantha: [checking Parker's groceries] Oh, wow, my favorite - although I think you have it backwards, though. You're supposed to buy me dinner BEFORE we sleep together.
  • Parker Concorde: Oh... Well, you know I'm sexually dyslectic.
  • Parker Concorde: Penny for your thoughts.
  • Samantha: Two bucks and you're on.
  • Parker Concorde: Okay, but it better be good.
  • Bess: Well, as they say at the bureau, you have to seize life before it seizes you.
  • Parker Concorde: Thank you.
  • Bess: You're welcome, but what for?
  • Parker Concorde: For giving me an ending.
  • Tom: Sam, let me ask you something. When you needed a friend, was Parker a friend?
  • Samantha: What?
  • Tom: And when you needed a lover, wasn't Parker a great lover?
  • Samantha: GOOD lover.
  • Tom: Really? Because I seem to remember you saying, "Oh, Tom, he's such a great lover!"
  • Samantha: Okay! Okay.
  • Tom: And when you needed a gay roommate, wasn't Parker a gay roommate?
  • Samantha: Tom, what's your point?
  • Tom: Just this - that ever since I've known you, you've never been able to find the kind of man who was everything you needed... until now.
  • Parker Concorde: You know, I'm glad you came around, because I was about to have a coronary.
  • Samantha: Yeah, me, too.
  • [a knock at the door]
  • Samantha: [calling offscreen] That's Ben. Would you get that? Tell him I'll be out in a minute.
  • Parker Concorde: Only if I can unleash the animals.
  • Newspaper Editor: [checking over Parker's resume] Look, Parker, I-I'm not looking for writers. I'm looking for ideas. Ideas with heart. If you pitch me a... a great idea with heart, you get to write it. That's the wonderful world of freelance.
  • Parker Concorde: Well, actually, I'm working on this... psychic hotline article.
  • Newspaper Editor: Good. How's it end?
  • Parker Concorde: How does it end? I don't know. I haven't gotten that far.
  • Newspaper Editor: Well, you can't write it if you don't know how it ends - Journalism 101.
  • Parker Concorde: I... wha... I guess I missed class that day.
  • Parker Concorde: Well, if I'm pathetic, you're... pathetic-er.
  • Jack: Nice one, writer-boy.
  • Matt: [at the water cooler] What's wrong, pal?
  • Parker Concorde: [sigh] Sam left me.
  • Matt: Oh, come on, Park. There's PLENTY of guys out there for ya.
  • Parker Concorde: Sam's a girl.
  • Troy: [entering] Woo, a girl?
  • Parker Concorde: I like women!
  • Troy: Good, good. That's what I'm talkin' about! Join the club! See, that's what it's all about.
  • Matt: I like 'em, too.
  • Troy: Yeah. Does... does Jack know about this?
  • Parker Concorde: I went out with Jack to avoid Tom.
  • Matt: Yeah, but you and Tom were so... so cute together.
  • Parker Concorde: My girlfriend set me up, so I HAD to go out with Tom.
  • Kim: [joining in] Why would your girlfriend set you up with a guy?
  • Parker Concorde: She thought I was gay.
  • Matt: Kinky.
