Quotes from West Wing


You raised your voice to a pregnant woman!

Toby:
I did not raise my voice.

It was in your inflection.


Toby to President Bartlett:
I was intimidated by your Catholicism.


We're trying to determine the extent of the conspiracy.

Toby:
The conspiracy is massive.


Toby to new writer:
When you get home tonight, you're going to be confronted with the instinct to drink alone. Trust that instinct. Dull the pain. Don't try to be a hero.


Mrs. Landingham:
Governor, does it frustrate you to constantly aim for humor and yet miss so dramatically?

then-Governor Bartlett:
Nah.

Leo's here? *yells* Leo!

I'd be happy to get him myself as they do in the civilized world.

Listen, churches are burning down; otherwise I'd be hitting on you.

Donna:
I appreciate that. Maybe when it's a better time.


Donna:
CJ, I just can't lie like this anymore.

CJ:
Are you saying it was you?

Donna:
I feel horrible. I should have said something before but I was afraid of what you'd do.

CJ:
It's ok!

Donna:
No. Let me get this off my chest. It was me. I called Tony Casta.

CJ:
Why?

Donna:
I don't know. Why does anyone do anything?

CJ:
What are you talking about?

Donna:
I'm a madwoman, CJ, and it doesn't stop with the leak.

CJ:
What do you mean?

Donna:
Call the authorities. Send them to my parents home in Madison.

CJ:
Why?

Donna:
They'll find the Lindbergh baby in the basement.

CJ:
OK.

Donna:
Also some Post-its reminding me where I put Jimmy Hoffa.

CJ:
Get out!

Donna:
I framed Roger Rabbit!

CJ:
GET OUT!

Donna:
I'm going to the place. Want a salad?

CJ:
Thanks.

How?

reporter:
Don't be coy, C.J.

C.J.:
I was born this way.


C.J.
We need a different enemy.


CJ:
We need to be investigated by someone who wants to kill us just to watch us die; we need someone percieved by the American people to be irresponsible, untrustworthy, partisan, ambitious, and thirsty for the limelight. Am I crazy, or is this not a job for the US House of Representatives?


It's the basically that makes it art.


President Bartlett, banging his head on the table.
:::looks up::: I'm sorry. Am I still here?


Why am I nervous?

It's not immoral?
