Samantha: Well I am not about to back down to her. That is just not who I am.
Carrie: Yeah Samantha's right. She shouldn't have to sacrifice who she is just because somebody else has a problem with it.
Samantha: Thank you.
Carrie: It's like me with smoking. You know it's too bad that Aidan had a problem with it. But you have to accept people for who they are.
Miranda: Wait, you're choosing cigarettes over a cute guy?
Carrie: He's not that cute.
Miranda: You bought furniture he was so cute.
Carrie: OK, but for him to dump me like that over a little thing like smoking...
Charlotte: Smoking is not a little thing, it's a dirty disgusting habit and you're killing yourself!
Carrie: Thank you, chin.
Charlotte: Really, Carrie, we all hate it. We just put up with it because we love you. Now you have a reason to quit, so quit.
Carrie: You know, I really don't appreciate being ganged up on.
Miranda: Who's ganging up on you?
Carrie: Smoking is a part of who I am. I will quit when I want to quit, and it won't be because some cute guy told me to. Right, Samantha?
Samantha: No, honey. Fighting a battle for Chivon is one thing, but holding on to those nasty cigarettes, well that's just whack.
Miranda: Please tell me she didn't just say whack.

Sex and the City Season 3 Episode 5 Quotes

If this is ever gonna work, I need you to believe in us a little more. I need you to believe in me, even if you think it is fucking stupid.

Steve

Carrie: Look. Since you negotiated such a good price for me on the chair, maybe I could negotiate a little deal for you on the smoking.
Aidan: What kind of deal?
Carrie: Well, I've been thinking about quitting anyway, so why not now. (Opens purse and shows Aidan the inside) Ta-da. No cigarettes.
Aidan: Can you do that?
Carrie: See, I think maybe you think I'm more of a smoker than I actually am, I only have, like a cigarette with cocktails.
