Quotes11

  • Jane: I'm being stalked, actually, so I'm pretty secure in my attractiveness.
  • Susan: You're being stalked?
  • Jane: Is that so hard to believe?
  • Sally: My god!
  • Jane: Everyday on my way home from work, a man follows me. It's true.
  • Susan: Well, have you been to the police?
  • Jane: They said I was being silly and paranoid. I heard them laughing after I left.
  • Sally: That's terrible!
  • Susan: Well, have you confronted the man who follows you?
  • Jane: Well, there's no point, is there? It's never the same man twice. Sometimes they switch over when I'm halfway home. It's so well organized!
  • Sally: [trying to explain to Patrick what platonic friendship with a woman is] What do you call people you go out with but don't try to sleep with?
  • Patrick: [beat] Men.
  • Susan: Some men were born lucky. Some men were born very lucky.
  • Sally: What was Patrick born?
  • Susan: A tripod.
  • Patrick: If I don't like a woman, if there's no chemistry, if I'm not attracted to her, then I don't lead her on. I just get out of there.
  • Sally: Really?
  • Patrick: Everytime, before she *even* wakes up.
  • Sally: So you do have sex with them, then?
  • Patrick: Well, there's no need to be cruel, is there?
  • Sally: I hate having sex at home. I've got a listening flatmate.
  • Jane: Oh no, I hate those. Do you have to be really quiet for her?
  • Sally: No, I have to be really loud. We're very competitive.
  • Jane: I'm just feeling so ridiculously horny. I swear, if I didn't have my heart set on having sex with a man, you two would be in serious trouble.
  • Sally: I could never have sex with another woman. What if she had a smaller bottom?
  • Susan: Excuse me! I have a crisis here way above bottoms on the crisis scale.
  • Sally: We're women. There is nothing above bottoms on the crisis scale. Bottoms are our natural enemy.
  • Susan: Sally, please...
  • Sally: They follow us around our entire lives, right behind us and constantly growing. How do they do that? I'm sure mine's back there secretly snacking.
  • Sally: [finds an engagement ring in a box labeled "Sally don't look in this box."] This is an engagement ring.
  • Patrick: Yes it is.
  • Sally: An engagement ring! Do you have a girlfriend?
  • Patrick: Yes, Sally.
  • [pause]
  • Patrick: You.
  • Sally: Me?
  • Patrick: Yes, you.
  • Sally: Who are you proposing to then?
  • Patrick: Who do you think?
  • Sally: I... I...
  • Patrick: I was waiting - I was waiting, as it happens, for the right romantic moment.
  • Sally: [Looks around at the mess she made] Fuck.
  • Sally: A woman with clothes on has negotiating power.
  • Sally: [singing] I'm Susan the happy trotting elf! I trot and trot and bounce and bounce and smile a lot and that's what counts! I'm Susan the happy trotting smile a lotting elf! I'm polite so just for clarity, when I'm cross I say "Apparently!"
  • [Talking to Jane and Susan]
  • Sally: At least you've been in there with Patrick. I've passed on my opportunity to be "Patricked."
  • Sally: Patrick, when I said I wanted to have a baby with you, I just meant... socially.
  • Patrick: Socially?
  • Sally: To tea.
  • Patrick: Babies can't come round to tea, Sally.
