Earth Girls Are Easy

The Fragility of Relationships and Commitment

Valerie Gail A relationship is a lot like a porcelain nail, Ted. You can break it, and you can glue it back together, but it's not going to be as strong as it was unless the person is really committed to not bringing home nurses!

Beetlejuice

Tensions Rise Over Beetlejuice's Chaos

I want Beetlejuice out of the picture! You two have really screwed up! I received word that you allowed yourselves to be photographed, and you let Betelgeuse out and didn't put him back, and you let Otho get hold of the handbook!

[to the football players; to the Maitlands]

Adam When?

Juno Never trust the living! We cannot have a routine haunting like yours provide proof that there is existence beyond death.

[rolls her eyes]

Dumb Football Player Coach? Coach, where's the men's room?

Thelma & Louise

Confronting Consequences of Violence and Trust

Louise Should've gone to the police in the beginning, why didn't I?

Thelma You said why before.

Louise What'd I say?

Thelma That nobody would believe us. You know that jerk was really hurting me, and if you hadn't come along when you had he would've hurt me even worse. And probably nothing would've been done with him because I was dancing with him all night and everybody saw it and they'd figure I had it coming. My life would've been ruined a whole lot more than it is now, now I'm having fun. I'll tell you something else, I'm not the least bit sorry that creep is dead, I'm just sorry it was you who did it and not me.
