Riley Matthews quotes from Girl Meets World

Cory Matthews

Ms. Burgess is here to teach you about great books and great ideas. Please give her the same respect that you give me.

Riley Matthews

Aw, we could do better than that.

Topanga Matthews

Girls, slow down! What is the rush?

Maya Hart

Dinner is keeping us from our homework.

Riley Matthews

The new English teacher wants us to read this.

Topanga Matthews

This looks like a comic book.

Cory Matthews

Yes!

Topanga Matthews

Didn't we have a teacher who taught us...

Cory Matthews

Yes!

Topanga Matthews

Tell me more about this new English teacher.

Riley Matthews

Motorcycle.

Maya Hart

Leather jacket.

Topanga Matthews

Sounds familiar... [turns to Cory] Weren't you on the committee to hire the new English teacher?

Cory Matthews

Yes!

Riley Matthews

How long are goldfish supposed to live?

Well, with proper care, they can go 15, 20 years.

Riley Matthews

Then that's when we'll see you next. [to the fish] Right, guys?

I hope so, kid. I'll miss you.

Riley Matthews

You will?

Yeah. You're sincere, you're honest. You changed me today.

Riley Matthews

Really?

Yeah. That'll be $17,000.

Maya Hart

I have no interest living in a world without Riley and Farkle. And I'm not going anywhere until you to come back, you hear me?

Farkle Minkus

Maya, the people you knew aren't here any more.

Maya Hart

Then can you please tell me where I can find them?

Riley Matthews

They're in the yearbook. Keep in touch and have an awesome summer.

Riley Matthews

Lucas hasn't asked me to the semi-formal. We're Riley and Lucas, aren't we, Maya?

Maya Hart

I don't know anymore. Just tell me what to say.

Riley Matthews

It's all over the front of my notebook. "Riley hearts Lucas 4-ever."

Maya Hart

What's on the back on your notebook?

Riley Matthews

"Riley and Lucas, we're just friends."

Maya has something very special, Riley. She paints from a place that few of us are able to reach.

Riley Matthews

That's because she has an awful life.

Maya Hart

I love it when I'm reminded.

Isadora Smackle

We are both geniuses now.

Farkle Minkus

Yup. That makes us even more alike that we were. And as we both know...

Isadora Smackle

[sadly] Like forces repel. Yes, science says we may never be together.

Farkle Minkus

And science never makes a mistake.

Riley Matthews

Really? Have you seen the blobfish? [shows them a picture of one and pretends to cry] Why, science? Why?

Riley Matthews

You're the worst bully ever, Peaches.

Maya Hart

I know. "Peaches the bully" just doesn't strike fear into the hearts of anybody.

Thank you for meeting me.I know you probably have something to say, you always have something to say. But now it's my turn to talk. You need to listen, you need to watch. Welcome to Rileytown. I twirl around when I'm happy. I dance by myself. And sometimes I give awards to myself for doing something good so that maybe I'll do something good again. And you're not going to stop me by showing everyone your little video that shows everyone that I do it. Because I'm going to show everyone right now. Welcome back to the Riley Awards! And now your host British Riley!

Maya Hart

Hi British Riley.

Riley Matthews

And now, for the biggest award of the evening! This here award is for not only facing your fears, but doing it in front of everyone I know in my horrible accent! and the winner is... Riley! I would like to thank everyone who helped me get here. My friends... Because true friends let you be who you are. I'd also like to thank you because this was hard. But I've grown today, so thank you. Hey, where are you going?

Maya Hart

Look Riles, the farther away she goes, the smaller she gets.

Riley Matthews

We don't need adult supervision anymore. We're becoming wonderful young adults.

Cory Matthews

Says who?

Riley Matthews

The ghost of the bay window.

Cory Matthews

Oh, the ghost of the bay window.

Riley Matthews

When you guys go to sleep, she floats in.

Topanga Matthews

She goes, "boo." We go, "aah!"

We all laugh and discuss the way ghosts are portrayed in the media.

Riley Matthews

Are you making fun of us?

Cory Matthews

Pretty sure we are.

Maya Hart

How many years are you gonna do this to me?

Riley Matthews

What am I doing to you?

Maya Hart

Every year I have to tell you that you're good. You know what? You're not good. You're not as good as Samantha, you're not as good as Heather, you're not as good as any girl with any name, or doesn't have a name, or doesn't exist, or is a rock.

Riley Matthews

He's going to do great, Maya. Zay, tell him he's going to do great.

[without conviction] You'll do great.

Maya Hart

Truth.

You're gonna die.

Farkle Minkus

[reading his "forgiveness note"] "Dear Farkle, I forgive you for ruining every single movie we've ever seen together." How do I ruin every single movie?

Ah, read mine. Read mine.

Farkle Minkus

(reads) "I forgive you for figuring out the end of every movie and shouting it out before it happens."

Because, see, we don't want to know.

Farkle Minkus

I just want to share my abilities with my friends.

Lucas Friar

We don't want your abilities.

Your abilities make us want to hurt you.

Farkle Minkus

(talks to Maya and Riley as they leave Mr. Matthews' classroom) Riley, Maya, movie with me?

Riley Matthews

Are you crazy?

Maya Hart

Never again.

Riley Matthews

"She dies!"

Maya Hart

"He blows up!"

Riley Matthews

"She's the killer."

Maya Hart

"Nobody gets out of Monkey Town."

Riley Matthews

Are you crazy?

Maya Hart

Hurt you.

Farkle Minkus

(to Lucas and Zay) Well, thank you for forgiving me. Do you think we could still go to the movies if I stop telling you what happens next?

Lucas Friar

Do you think you can?

Farkle Minkus

Of course I can. "Oh, let's give him one more chance." "Hey!" Then you chase me, and then I scream.

Oh, let's give him one more chance.

Lucas Friar

Hey!

Farkle Minkus

It's just too much fun! Ahh! (Lucas and Zay chase Farkle)

Topanga Matthews

You don't think I can do this, do you?

I think that you are Topanga Matthews, attorney at law, and that might perhaps color the way that you deal with customers, who I don't even think will believe that you're a waitress.

Topanga Matthews

I could be a fine waitress. And what will you have, sir?

Yeah, give me the cheesecake.

Topanga Matthews

You want to try that a different way, chief?

Do you give in to your feelings or let your mind rule over your heart?

Maya Hart

I follow my heart. It gets me into trouble.

Farkle Minkus

What about you, Riley?

Riley Matthews

My mind tells me to do what's right.

Can anyone answer which is more valuable to follow?

Lucas Friar

It depends on the situation.

No, it doesn't.

Lucas Friar

[shouting] Just taking a shot!

Very passionate.

Lucas Friar

Thank you!

...And that's where we run into trouble.

Lucas Friar

You set me up!

Riley Matthews

Farkle, how come you never have us over to your house?

Farkle Minkus

I've already told you.

Riley Matthews

No, you say you're embarrassed by it, but how big could it possibly be?

Farkle Minkus

I don't know. I haven't seen it all.
