Quotes from Sex and the City

I am so hooked on this show. Besides being funny and irreverant, it is refreshing to see a show about women that I like. These women are smart, sarcastic, and live by their own rules. They have sex, get into and out of relationships, and face the kind of awkward problems that happen in life.

I like all of the characters, but I don't relate to dingbat Charlotte, and Carrie is too neurotic. But Miranda's frustration and sarcasm and Samantha's ruthless pursuit of her own freedom resonate with me.


Season Four

Charlotte:
You're engaged!

Carrie:
I threw up. I saw the ring and I threw up. That can't be normal.

Sam:
That's my reaction to marriage.


Miranda:
I don't know why they call it morning sickness, because it lasts all fucking day long.


Charlotte:
For something called a fling, it looks like a lot of work.

Bunny, laughing:
That's what I used to tell Trey about you!


Miranda opens the door to see Steve kneeling, holding an engagement ring.

Miranda:
What, are you fucking crazy?

Steve:
What's your answer?!?!?


Miranda:
... which is why I called you to meet me here on the corner of 23rd and I'm in Hell!.


Miranda:
It's the Special Olympics of conception!


Carrie:
As we speed along this road towards who we want to be, sometimes you can't help but wonder... are we there yet?


Miranda:
You know what? You're right! Forget my life -- I'm having Steve's baby! Pizza for everybody!!!


Carrie:
Did you ever get a girl pregnant?

Aiden:
Not that I know of.

Carrie:
GodDAMN, it must be nice to be a guy sometimes.


Carrie:
A squirrel is just a rat in a cuter outfit.


Carrie:
Miranda, I'm still asleep. How can you have had an emotional mini-drama already?


Samantha:
Steve Brady and... Aidan Shaw???

Carrie:
How did this happen? Why are they even friends?


Samantha:
All we ever do is lie around, take baths together, and talk about our feelings.


Charlotte to Trey:
No! It's like we live in the National Museum of Ugliness!


Samantha:
With all of the fucking and talking, I had no idea men had to work so hard!


Carrie:
Could we not have the strap-on conversation right now?


Samantha:
Does he look better, or have I been with a woman too long?


Sam's lover:
You call this a relationship?

Samantha:
Well, it's tedious and the sex is dwindling, so from what I've heard, yes.


Season Three

Women are for friendships. Men are for fucking.


Miranda:
I'm more like... we didn't work out. You need to not exist.


Carrie:
Your girl is lovely, Hubble.

Mr. Big:
I don't get it.

Carrie:
And you never did.


Carrie:
Maybe I didn't break Big. Maybe he failed to break me. Some women aren't meant to be tamed, but to run free, until they find someone just as wild to run with.


Samantha:
He lives with his parents?

Carrie:
It's their apartment.

Samantha:
Not sexy, honey. Dump him immediately. Here, use my cell phone.


Miranda:
What's really going on here is sex. Good, old-fashioned, eager-to-please, do-what-I-tell-you-to sex.


Miranda:
Maybe it's time I stopped being angry.

Carrie:
Yeah, but what would you do with your free time?


Bellhop:
This is a non-smoking floor.

Carrie:
I have an addiction, sir!


Charlotte:
Could you have more condoms?

Samantha:
I did, yes!


Samantha:
There's two kinds of guys. The ones who hold your hand and the ones that fuck you.


Charlotte to Samantha:
Could you please not use the f-word in Vera Wang?


Season Two

I don't have a pattern.

In math, randomness is considered a pattern.


Carrie, you can't date your fuck-buddy!!!


Stanford:
When you're gay, everyone can wear everyone's underwear.

Charlotte:
That's hygenic.


Carrie:
If I were't perpetually 10 minutes late, would my life be totally different?


Samantha to Miranda:
Your relationship is my greatest fear realized.


Miranda to Carrie:
Maybe you don't believe its real unless someone is playing hard-to-get.


Miranda:

Men are like cabs. When they're ready to get married, they turn their light on. The next woman they pick up, boom! they marry.


A simple 'you're so hard' can be quite effective.


Charlotte:
It takes half the time of the relationship to get over him.


Carrie:
Destroy all pictures where he looks sexy and you look happy.


Miranda to Carrie:
It's my stuff. It's not you.


Season One

Miranda:
I just realized. Maybe its maturity, or the wisdom that comes with age, but the witch in Hansel and Gretel is very misunderstood.


Carrie:
It's very strange when the life you never had flashes before your eyes.


I'm sure you get this all the time, but what is wrong with you?


Samantha:
This is at once so sad, and the most fabulous validiction I've ever gotten in my entire life.


Samantha:
Normal is the halfway point between what you want and what you can get.


Samantha:
Sex is a barometer of what is going on in a relationship.


Samantha:
So go over there and fuck his brains out and he'll forget all about it. Men aren't that complicated. They're kinda like plants.


Miranda:
I warn you, ladies. If I make it to 4 months, I'm huming one of you.


Jake:
Come on. Wouldn't you rather be with a guy who's kind and giving and not that interested in sex, than an unstable oversexed prick who only wants to get laid?

Charlotte:
Nope!


Threesomes are the blow jobs of the 90s.


Charlotte:
But you don't have relationships.

Samantha:
Which is why I have great sex.


Samantha:
Just make sure the other woman isn't a friend. Use somebody random, you know, somebody you meet in a bar or something.


Charlotte:
Well, I've never done a threesome.

Samantha:
Oh, come on. Of course you haven't! You in a threesome? You won't even wear a thong!


Carrie, voiceover:
Meanwhile, Samantha had been busy guest-starring in the show I like to call "Sam Does the Married Guy".


Miranda:
But if your friends won't go down on you, who will?


Carrie to Charlotte:
Sweetie, don't you think it's wierd you're thinking of sleeping with someone you don't know to get get closer to Jack?


Miranda:
He's never going to leave his wife for you, you know. They never do.

Samantha:
Thank God!! Who needs the trouble? This is ideal -- no muss, no fuss.


Carrie:
Having been raised in the church of be nice to people...


Carrie to Mr. Big:
Are we dating? I thought we were just sleeping together.


Carrie:
Odd, how normal can sometimes feel so uncomfortable.


Carrie:
The truth is, I was dying to sleep with him. But isn't delayed gratification the definition of maturity?


Carrie:
And us. We looked like the witches of Eastwick.


Charlotte:
I think that a relationship has to be based on honesty and communication if it has any chance of succeeding.

Samantha:
Ok. If you were 25, that would be adorable. But you're 32 now, so thats just stupid.


Carrie:
My Zen teacher also said, "The only way to true happiness is to live in the moment and not worry about the future. Of course, he died penniless and single.
