Paul

[edit]
  • You know, I never knew what love was until I met your mother. And by then it was too late.
  • If I have to wear a tux, she has to wear a bra.

Joan

[edit]
  • I said you look like a man in need of a coke.
  • [on the phone] The lad doesn't say much, and when he does, he finds just the right words to crush my soul. Of course I'm crazy about him.
  • You should write these kiss-offs down. How to crush a woman's soul in ten words or less. That was ten, wasn't it? [counting] You're-terrific-Sensational-really-but-I'm-not-right-for-you. Yep. Ten.

Hugh

[edit]
  • I should be alone. Alone in hell. That's where I am.
