Quotes[]

Naomi – I like theater people, you know. Well, in small doses that is. Next time some actor dude comes up to me and starts talking about his process, I might have to duck back to my hotel.
Adrianna – Listen to you. Duck back to my hotel?
Naomi – I love saying it. It's the most beautiful phrase in the English language. Duck back to my hotel.
Dixon – I know you're not a mind reader
Silver – You're on to me
Silver – Insightful actually came up once or twice. Insightful. Moi, insightful. And then he actually started telling me that –
Dixon – You know, for someone so insightful, you can be pretty dense
Adrianna – (to Naomi and Kelly about the father of her baby) There's really only one guy it could be
Ty – (covers her eyes) Guess who?
Naomi – I want you to have the best OB-GYN in town
Adriana – Hm. That's nice
Naomi – Only the best for you, baby. Platinum speculum all the way.
Adriana – I'm sorry if I was rude, before. Can I blame it on hormones?
Kelly – I am a high school guidance counselor. I'm used to abuse.
Ryan – (to Silver) You know, you might cut down on some of the enthusiastic colloquial adjectives that you seem to be so fond of. Kickass, badass, anything with an ass in it, really. You might try finding a synonym next time.
Dixon – (talking about telling Silver he loved her) We kind of decided not to talk about it. You know, just sweep it under the rug.
Debbie – How's that going?
Dixon – Just feels like there's something big under the rug, somebody's going to break their neck.
Ty – I like the way you enunciate, Ethan
Ethan – Why, thank you, Ty. I like the way you wear your jeans just one size to small.
Kelly – Hey. You look exhausted. Were you up all night?
Silver – Genius doesn't sleep. Well, genius may have dozed off for an hour or two and drooled on her keyboard.
Gail – Oh, Naomi, I wanted to talk to you about something
Naomi – Right. You're glad I'm here. You're not trying to replace my mom and you want us to be pals. Squawk, squawk, squawk.
Lucinda – Artisan moldings. Ka-ching
Naomi – Who the hell are you?
Lucinda – Oh. Hi. Lucinda Tunic. Tunic Realty. I'm doing the walk-through for the broker pre-tour
Naomi – I don't understand a single word you just said, so...
Ryan – Miss Silver, I am transferring you out of this class
Silver – Excuse me?
Ryan – I've already filled out the forms, I've discussed it with Principal Wilson. You will be in Mr Kaplen's English class
Silver – He's the worst teacher here. The dude calls Tom Clancy, 'The Bard'.
Annie – I'd love to play Cleopatra. It's a role I always thought I would play eventually. Not necessarily in high school, though, but you know, when opportunity knocks...
Ethan – You better answer
Annie – You know, my grandma was up for the movie role but she says that Elizabeth Taylor stole her part, that violet-eyed hussy.
