Quotations

Everyone promises you happily ever after... but life turns into a different kind of fairy tale.

You make me feel something I absolutely cannot feel.

[reading to coworkers] In her acceptance speech, the distinguished scientist paid tribute to her husband, Dr. Chris Davis. Tomorrow the pair celebrate their 42nd wedding anniversary after eloping together on the day they met. When asked how they could possibly have known that it would all work out, Professor Harrison replied in true scientific fashion: "We don't know, you can never be sure. But you take the plunge anyway. Sure is for people who don't love enough."

You're a wanker, number nine!

I think you know immediately. As soon as your eyes meet... Then everything that happens from then on just proves that you have been right in that first moment. When you suddenly realize that you were incomplete and now you are whole...

[to Rachel] You know I want you to be happy. And more than anything, I wanted to be the cause of happiness in you.

Well, let's hang these flowers and get that jacket in some water.

[Rachel wants to have sex in a park late at night] We've got a flat. It's a good one. And I've confiscated your mother's key so she can't sneak up on us anymore. I swear that woman's got a sex radar.

Three cheers for my husband, as much use as a fart in a jam jar.

Cooper, that trollop. That man would shag an open wound.
