Ally McBeal: I'm not sure how it all started. Oh, it was because I smelled his bottom.It wasn 't that stupid. Dogs did it. That's how they knew for sure.

Richard: Make enough money, and everything else will follow. Quote me. That's a Fishism.

Ally: I think I need to believe that it works
Billy: What works?
Ally: Love. Couple hood. Partnerships. The idea that when people come together, they stay together. I have to take that with me when I'm going to bed at night, even if I'm going to bed alone. That's a McBealism.

Ally: How did I get to be such a mess so soon in my life?
Billy: You've always been ahead of your time.

Drawing the Lines [1.08]

[edit]
Ally McBeal: I mean, with all due respect, you sort of walk around with uppity breasts, and the hair flips aren't the most subtle. And your perfume - you could be flammable. Now what if somebody shut you down as a safety hazard, how would you feel then?
Renée Radick: People think you're strange, you know. Just, just sit there and don't talk.
John "The Biscuit" Cage: I am an enigma.
Renée Radick: You're a cute little enigma.

Happy Birthday, Baby [1.19]

[edit]
Ally McBeal: I've been dumped before, Renee. This isn't pain I'm feeling, it's nostalgia.

These Are the Days [1.23]

[edit]
Ally McBeal: Whenever I get depressed, I raise my hemlines. If things don't change, I am bound to be arrested. Do you ever wish you could erase a whole day from your life, a year even?
John: If you think back, and replay your year - if it doesn't bring you tears of joy or sadness, consider the year wasted.
