Cory Matthews quotes from Boy Meets World

Eric

I know what you're hiding.

Cory

You do?

Eric

Yup. I tried the same thing when I was your age. The noises, the food sneaking, the look on your face at dinner... YOU'RE HIDING A PUPPY!

Cory

"I'm Blowin' Up Your Head, Part 6: Stumpy's Revenge" I thought Stumpy died in "Part 5."

Shawn

He did. That's why he wants revenge.

Feeny

This has got to be the most half-baked idea you've ever had!

Cory

No, it was fully-baked.

Cory

You know, maybe if Hamlet had worn pants, he could have made a decision or two.

Topanga

Was that a sexist comment?

Cory

That's what I was shootin' for.

Shawn

Don't worry about her- her dad sews.

Shawn

Tell me something. How do you ask a girl out?

Cory

Simple. You open the door and say, "Get out, you're bothering me."

Shawn

No, like, on a date.

Cory

Well, Eric uses the shotgun approach. He just keeps dialing random numbers until he hears the word "yes."

Shawn

Sounds like a lot of work.

Cory

Yeah, and after all that, what have you got? A girl! What's the point?

Shawn

Feeny's test tomorrow is gonna be such a killer.

Cory

Yeah, I don't understand why we have to learn anything about geography. Why do we have to learn where everything is? I'll just be like my dad and drive around 'til I find it.

Cory

[before a test] I am so nervous!

Shawn

You? My palms are sweating so much I can't even read the answers I wrote on them!

Cory

See, I've been doing my homework.

Amy

You've done homework?

Cory

It's a metaphor. So how do I avoid years of humiliation and abuse?

Alan

Don't get married. [Amy smacks him] It's a metaphor!

Well Mr. Matthews, why don't we treat this little rendezvous as a dress rehearsal for the many visits we'll undoubtedly have this year.

Cory

Huh?

Get out of my face!!!!

Eric

[panicking] Cory, we're studying.

Cory

So am I!

Eric

You named the rats after yourselves?

Cory

Yeah. Shawn's the one chewing the lock. I'm the one with the skin disease.

Cory

"John Adam's High's New Principal is Mr. George Weeny." Can you imagine five thousand students reading this?

Shawn

Power; ultimate power.

Cory

Yeah, but... we would never... would we?

Shawn

Power!

Shawn

What are we now?

Cory

We are lowly, 7th grade sewer scum who name rats after ourselves to feel important.

Shawn

And how do you feel about this?

Cory

Better than the guys with no rats.

Feeny

The football season...

Shawn

Uh-oh.

Feeny

CANCELED!

Shawn

But that means...

Feeny

Yes, Mr. Hunter. No cheerleaders!

Shawn

[falling to his knees] NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Cory

Shawn, this is a strike. We have to be willing to make sacrifices.

Shawn

[hysterical] But he's taking my girls! Why can't we just sacrifice you?

Cory

Do you think I'm a geek?

Shawn

Of course not.

Cory

So you think I'm cool?

Shawn

Of course not.

Cory

Then what am I?!

Shawn

You're Cory! I'm Shawn- just like it's always been. What else do you need to know?
