Topanga Lawrence quotes from Boy Meets World

Topanga

Cory, I never asked you to wear an engagement ring. You saw mine and said, "Pretty. I want one."

Topanga

*to Shawn* How can there be anything wrong between you and Cory? You love him more than I do! *to her mother* It's true, but I'm okay with it.

Cory

Shawn and I have another project we're working on.

Topanga

What is it?

Shawn

You know how those dolphins get caught in the tuna nets?

Topanga

Yeah?

Shawn

It's got nothing to do with that.

Cory

[reading attendance sheet] Lawrence, Topanga?

Topanga

[sitting on the floor on a pillow] I am channeling. I will only answer to the name of: [opens eyes] Oommmmmooooooowwwwwwooo!

Cory

Present... but not all here.

Eric

Maybe you'll smoke.

Minkus

I don't think so.

Eric

What if...[points to Topanga] she thought smoking was cool? Would you smoke then?

Minkus

In a heartbeat.

Eric

[to Topanga about Minkus] He smokes. You think that's cool?

Topanga

I think any man that smokes is a pig.

Minkus

I'm trying to quit!

Eric

What about alcohol?

Minkus

Could you use someone else as an example?!

Topanga

You are so wise.

Eric

Yes, I am. And that wisdom comes from knowing that if you have a relationship based on looks, it's stupid and superficial.

Hi, I'm Topanga's sister.

Eric

Hi, I'm stupid and superficial.

Minkus

Don't you hate it when Mom and Dad fight?

Shawn

No. Into it.

Cory

Well, we won't be fighting for long. I've got something that'll take the fight right out of Mom. Read it and weep, Little Big Hair.

Topanga

[reading off Cory's paper] "My model wife won't care how dirty my room gets. She'll always let me win at video games. She'll play street hockey any time of the day or night." Why don't you just marry Shawn?

Cory

Because our kids would look like horses.

Topanga

Each of our bodies is the master creation of Mother Nature.

Shawn

Well, except for Minkus. He was created by Mother Goose.

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.

Topanga

You know what I want? I want my good name back.

Cory

Well, some people might argue that Topanga isn't the best name to begin with.

Topanga

So, you're just doing this so you won't be different.

Cory

I'm just trying to survive this.

Topanga

Oh.

Cory

No, it's not you, Topanga. It's me. I just can't perform under all this pressure.

Topanga

It's Ok. Relax This happens to lots of guys.

Cory

How do you know?

Topanga

Well, you know, girls talk.

Cory

Oh, man. Listen, when you talk to girls, this did not happen to me. Nothing happened. I mean, something happened, but Whatever was supposed to happen, did.

Topanga

Cory, do you wanna just talk?

Cory

Could we?

Topanga

So, what would you like to talk about?

Cory

Well, we could talk about what we're gonna tell them when we get out of here.

Topanga

We could tell them we made out.

Cory

They'd know.

Topanga

I could mess up my hair and you could change your shirt.

Cory

You'd have to smile a lot.

Topanga

And you'd have to get that real sleepy, stupid look.

Cory

You could change your shirt, too.

Topanga

Don't push it.

Cory

How come you're being so cool about this? I don't know.

Topanga

Because you're nice.

Topanga

[talking about the dance] Well, I'm not going.

Cory

My only hope!... I mean, why?

Topanga

It's a protest. The concept of a turnaround dance is that all the other times only the boys get to ask. That is gender-biased thinking and we have to get beyond that... Besides, that weekend my daddy's taking me to New York for Christmas shopping!

Turner

[about a biography assignment] Doesn't have to be somebody famous, just somebody real. Anybody you like.

Cory

Anybody?

Turner

Anybody.

Cory

Absolutely anybody?

Turner

Absolutely anybody.

Cory

I pick Shawn!

Shawn

I pick Cory!

Topanga

You know, you walked right into that.

Turner

I did, didn't I?

Topanga

Cory, you've never told me your quote for the yearbook.

Cory

What did you put?

Topanga

"I do my thing and you do your thing; you are you and I am I; but if in the end we end up together, it's beautiful."

Cory

Put the same for me.

Shawn

Topanga, are you sweating?

Topanga

I don't sweat, I glisten.

Shawn

Yeah, well, you're glistening like a pig.
