Miranda Hobbes Quotes
Carrie: You think, maybe, you don't want him to move away?

Charlotte: Sometimes you just know, it's like, magic, it's fate.
Miranda: It's not fate, his light is on, that's all.
Charlotte: What light?

Miranda: Please, it's all about timing. You gotta get em, when their lights on.

Steve: Me.

Miranda: Okay, this is it. I'm so sick of you being the kid here, I cannot be in charge all the time. We're supposed to be equals, partners, you think we can have a baby, we can't even have a puppy together.
Steve: We're just going through a rough patch here.
Miranda: This isn't a rough patch Steve, this is it, all the time, and it's not good.
