Critique of Unrealistic Beauty Standards
Gina
I'm finished speaking to both of you okay? You're both fucking insane. You want to know what your problem is? MTV, Playboy, and Madison fucking Avenue. Yes. Let me explain something to you, ok? Girls with big tits have big asses. Girls with little tits have little asses. That's the way it goes. God doesn't fuck around; he's a fair guy. He gave the fatties big, beautiful tits and the skinnies little tiny niddlers. It's not my rule. If you don't like it, call him. (to shop owner) Hey Mitch. Thank you. (Looking at a porn magazine) Oh, guys, look what we have here. Look at this, your favorite. Oh, you like that?
Tommy
I could go along with that.
Gina
Yeah, that's nice right? Well, it doesn't exist OK? Look at the hair. The hair is long, it's flowing, it's like a river. Well, it's a fucking weave OK? And the tits, please! I could hang my overcoat on them. Tits by design were invented to be suckled by babies. Yes, they're purely functional. These are Silicon City. And look, my favorite, the shaved pubis. Pubic hair being too unruly and all. Very key. This is a mockery, this is a sham, this is bullshit! Implants, collagen, plastic, capped teeth, the fat sucked out, the hair extended, the nose fixed, the bush shaved... These are not real women, all right? They're beauty freaks. And they make all us normal women with our wrinkles, our puckered boobs, Hi Bob, and our cellulite feel somehow inadequate. Well I don't buy it, all right? But you fucking mooks, if you think that if there's a chance in hell that you'll end up with one of these women, you don't give us real women anything approaching a commitment. It's pathetic. I don't know what you think you're going to do. You're going to end up eighty-years old, drooling in some nursing home, then you're going to decide, it's time to settle down, get married, have kids? What, are you going to find a cheerleader? Charge it Mitch.
[to another man; to Tommy & Willie; giving her card to the shopowner]
Tommy
I think you're over simplifying.
Gina
Oh eat me. Look at Paul. With his models on the wall, his dog named ]. He's insane. He's obsessed. You're all obsessed. If you had an once of self-esteem, of self-worth, of self-confidence, you would realize that as trite as it may sound, beauty is truly skin-deep. And you know what, if you ever did hook one of those girls, I guarantee you'd be sick of her.
[[w:Elle Macpherson|Elle MacPherson]
Tommy
Yeah, I suppose I'd get sick of her after about, what, twenty or thirty years?
Gina
Get over yourself! Thank you Mitch. Say hello to Gertrude.
Tommy
What?
Gina
No matter how perfect the nipple, how supple the thigh, unless there is some other shit going on in the relationship, besides the physical, it's going to get old, OK? And you guys, as a gender, have got to get a grip. Otherwise, the future of the human race is in jeopardy.
[she walks away]
Willie
What was that?
Tommy
I don't know, but a great ass.
Willie
Nice tits. Come on let's go.

Unraveling Secrets of Past Conversations
Paul
Did you hear that Andera went back to Chicago? She was supposed to stay through the reunion. She just up and left. What did you say to her in that ice shack, Will?
Willie
I told you, we just talked.
Paul
You told her things, didn't you?
Willie
What things?
Paul
You let her behind the curtain, didn't you?
Willie
Maybe she missed her boyfriend.
Paul
You let her behind the curtain, I know you did. You never let them behind the curtain Will. You never let them see the little old man behind the curtain working the levers of the great and powerful Oz. They are all sisters Willie... they aren't allowed back there... they mustn't see.
Willie
Tell me the truth. You stay up nights thinking about this shit?
Paul
You say it like it's a bad thing.

Reflections on Love and Connection
Willie
I look at you and I think it's amazing that there's a guy out there gets to do all kinds of things with you. He gets to make you happy and spend evenings with you...
Andera
...make me martinis, listen to ]...
[[Van Morrison]
Willie
...smell your skin...
Andera
...after a day at the beach.
Willie
Yeah, and read the papers...
Andera
...on a Sunday morning...
Willie
...a rainy Sunday morning, and pepper your belly with baby kisses... Sorry.
Andera
The thing is, there's a guy out there thinks the same thing about Tracy and he's jealous of you because you get to do all that with her.
Willie
Let me ask you something; can you think of anything better than making love to an attractive stranger... with just an oil light to guide your way? Can you think of anything better?
Andera
Going back to Chicago. Ice cold martini. Van Morrison.
Willie
Sunday papers. Got ya.

The Dilemma of Love's Initial Excitement
Willie
You know how it is, the beginnings? When you first fall in love and you can't eat, you can't sleep and getting a call from her, it makes your day. It's like seeing a shooting star.
Andera
It's the best.
Willie
Yeah, but, inevitably it goes away. It quiets down. So, this is my thing see, why get married now? Why not have two, three more of those beginning things before I, you know, settle into the big fade?
Andera
The big fade, that's an awful way to put it.

Debate on Supermodels and Personal Boundaries
Willie
You got to take this shit down.
[about Paul's walls, covered with pictures of models]
Paul
Why?
Willie
You're like a serial killer.
Paul
Don't cap on my supermodels. Leave it alone.
Willie
It's creepy.
Paul
Look who's talking, Mr. ].
[[Jerry Lee Lewis]
Willie
Oh, fucking Mo!
Paul
I don't judge. If she can cut her own food, she's fair game.
Willie
It's not like that. OK. All I'm saying is you got to take all this down because it's creepy...
Paul
Look. The supermodel's a beautiful girl, Will. She can make you dizzy, like you've been drinking Jack all morning. She can make you feel high for the greatest commodity known to man - promise, the promise of a better day, the promise of a greater hope, the promise of a new tomorrow. This particular ore can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl - in her smile, in her soul, in the way she makes every rotten thing about life seem OK. The supermodels, Willie? That's all they are - bottled promise. Scenes from a new day, hope in stiletto heels.
Willie
I am now going to check your freezer for human heads.
Paul
A beautiful girl's all-powerful and that is as good as love. That's as good as love.

Decisions Based on Desire vs. Fear
Jan
Only when faced with losing me do you decide you want to spend the rest of your life with me.
Paul
So, what's wrong with that? I didn't like the alternative. I mean that's how one usually comes to a decision anyway, right?
Jan
Wrong again, Paul - one comes to a decision based on what one wants, not based on what one doesn't want. Got it?

Question About Relationship Duration
Tommy
Can I ask you a question?
Andera
Go ahead.
Tommy
How long have you been going out with your boyfriend?
Andera
Eight months.
Tommy
And it's good?
Andera
It's very good.
Tommy
He makes you happy?
Andera
Yeah. I look for that in a man you know. The ones that make me miserable don't seem to last.
Tommy
Right.
Andera
You know there are fours words I need to hear before I go to sleep. Four little words. "Good night sweet girl." That's all it takes. I'm easy, I know, but a guy who can muster up those four words is a guy I want to stay with.
