Sarah Henrickson quotes from Big Love

Sarah

[to Bill] It hurts to see you lie, Dad. I hate that about this life. Watching you and Mom hide, all of us having to hide.

Sarah

[to Barb, about polygamy] I don't think anybody knows, Mom, and not everybody cares.

Sarah

Why can't we just hire a babysitter like everyone else?

Barb

Because we're not everyone else.

Heather

You know, when I'm 21, I really wanna go on a mission and I wish I could go to an Islamic country because I think post-9/11 that part of the world needs our help the most. Don't you think?

Sarah

I think the whole world needs help.

Sarah

You overheard something, and you've been fishing for days. Okay? I'm a polygamist. My parents are. So what?

Heather

I just wanted to let you know that I know. I just wanted to be friends.

Sarah

Yeah, well now that you know, what are you gonna do? Rat me out to your State Trooper father?

Heather

Probably. You know, because I tell him everything. [Sarah stares in horror] Why does everyone think I don't have a sense of humor?

Sarah

What's it like being married?

Rhonda

It's a pre-marriage placement. That's what it's called now, to get around the law until I'm 16.

Rhonda

I wasn't forced! [smugly] The other sister-wives hate me because old Roman likes me best.

Sarah

Do you love him?

Rhonda

He's sweet to me. The greatest freedom we have is obedience.

Bill

[to Ben, instructing him for the hunting trip] Hey, remember tomorrow: no deodorant, no soap, no mouthwash.

Sarah

[chuckles] Like you really have to tell him that.

Sarah

How's Seminary? Made friends with the other brainwashees?

Ben

Don't call them brainwashed.

Sarah

Why not?

Ben

I don't like it.

Sarah

Good. You still have an opinion.

Margie

I am a terrible wife. I should've never married your father. And your mother.

Sarah

And Nicki.

Margie

Especially Nicki.
