I used to think those people who sat alone at Starbucks writing on their laptops were pretentious posers. Now I know, they are people who have recently moved in with someone.

Miranda: Why didn't I use a condom?
Carrie: You didn't use a condom?
Miranda: He has one ball, and I have a lazy ovary! In what twisted world does that create a baby? It's like the Special Olympics of conception.

Miranda: Oh God, Carrie. Is this my baby? I mean, what am I waiting for?
Carrie: Sweetie, do you want me to leave?
Miranda: No I can't have a baby. I could barely find the time to schedule this abortion.

Miranda: Men, wait, let me rephrase that, some men...
Carrie: Good move, counselor. That will look much better on the court transcripts of this dinner.

Samantha: "Emotional" is just code for "I don't want to hire a woman."
Miranda: They're like that at my firm. They're afraid you're going to cry over a legal brief.
Carrie: HAVE you ever cried over a legal brief?
Miranda: Yes, but only in the privacy of my own office.

I'm thinking balls are to men, what purses are to women. It's just a little bag but we'd feel naked in public without it.

Carrie (about Aidan): Maybe I should try to get Big and him and me together.
Miranda: Did you have a big plate of crazy for lunch?

A squirrel is just a rat in a cuter outfit.

Samantha: I lost my orgasm.
Carrie: In the cab?
Charlotte: What do you mean, lost?
Samantha: I mean, I spent the last two hours fucking with no finale.
Carrie: It happens. Sometimes you just can't get there.
Samantha: I can always get there.
Charlotte: Evey time you have sex?
Carrie: She's exaggerating! Please say you're exaggerating.
Samantha: Well, I'll admit I have had to polish myself off once or twice, but yes! When I RSVP to a party I make it my business to come!
Carrie: See, I've been a no-show on more than one occasion.
Charlotte: Sex can still be great without an orgasm.
Samantha: That is such a crock of shit.
Carrie: She has a point.
Samantha: What is wrong with me?
Carrie: Listen, you've got plenty of orgasms under your belt. You're gonna be fine! Now retrace your steps. Were you on top?
Samantha: How is that relevant?
Charlotte: You mean you can have them on the bottom?
Samantha: Top, bottom, upside down...
Carrie: OK, now you're just showing off!

Aidan, you can't keep punishing me,and I can't keep punishing me. I made a mistake and I am sorry, and I know that you can't forget what happened, but I hope that you can forgive me. You have to forgive me. You have to forgive me. You have to forgive me, Aidan. You have to forgive me. You have to forgive me.

Carrie: I got to thinking about relationships and partial lobotomies: two seemingly different ideas that might just be perfect together-like chocolate and peanut butter.

When men attempt bold gestures, generally it's considered romantic. When women do it, it's often considered desperate or psychotic.

Sex and the City Quotes

It's like the riddle of the Sphinx. Why are there so many great unmarried women, and no great unmarried men?

Carrie

(After Carrie gets off Mr. Big's car)
Carrie: Wait! Have you ever been in love?
Mr. Big: Abso-fucking-lutely.
