Quinn Fabray quotes from Glee

Quinn

I like what Kurt stands for, and Brittany's insane, but just like my dad always voted for the candidate who was least ethnic, I'm voting for the one who's most girl. [checks off Brittany on the card]

Mercedes

Brittany is my home Troubletones girl but thank God for secret ballots because if Santana's girlfriend wins this election I'll never going to hear the end of it. [checks off Kurt on the card]

Rachel

Well, my suspension is officially over. It'll still be on my transcript, though. I'm just hoping that the admissions department at NYADA see it as a sign of my artistic, rebellious attitude.

Quinn

Good luck with that.

Rachel

Are you going to go tell Figgins about Shelby? Because I still think it's a really terrible idea.

Quinn

I came here to talk to you, actually. To tell you I'm not going to tell.

Rachel

Why?

Quinn

Because I love Beth, and I don't want to ruin her life. I wanted to thank you actually.

Rachel

For what?

Quinn

For keeping me from doing something stupid. Something I would have regretted my entire life.

Rachel

[nods and ducks her head shyly then looks up]...We're kind of friends huh?

Quinn

Kind of. What do you think about Yale?

Rachel

Oh no no. I had my sights set on NYADA.

Quinn

No, for me. I'm not the singer that you and Kurt are but Yale has an amazing drama program and I really do like to perform.

Rachel

Yeah!

Quinn

I certainly would nail all the parts where the girl has to cry.

Rachel

[laughs] No I think it's a great idea! I'm especially since you won't have me to compete with. ...You're a lot better than you know.

Quinn

Well..I'll see you at glee club.

Rachel

Wait, w-where are you going?

Quinn

There's a couple people I need to talk to.

Rachel

Ok well, I don't know if you need help with your Yale application..

Quinn

Not with the Yale application but um, there is something you could do for me.

Rachel

Hey! Look I need your advice, alright, about, about an adult problem.

Quinn

Holy Crap! Are you pregnant?

Rachel

No! Look I'm coming to you as a friend and, oddly because I also think you are the only person that will give me just a straightforward and a thoughtful answer about this.

Quinn

You're right, I'm sorry. Yes, I can keep a secret.

Rachel

Finn, asked me to marry him.

Quinn

[gasps] Well, what did you say?

Rachel

I said I needed to think about it.

Quinn

Well, you can't.

Rachel

Why? Plenty of people get married our age and I know he and I haven't lived together or anything but I love him and he's the one. I know it. [Quinn hands her a folded piece of paper] What's this? [opens it and reads it]

Quinn

My ticket out of here. I got into Yale, early admissions. Turns out my essay about overcoming adversity while maintaining a straight A average during a teen pregnancy really turned on the admissions boards.

Rachel

Quinn, that's amazing. [hugs Quinn] That's so great. [lets go] It's great.

Quinn

I'm sure you'll get your NYADA one soon.

Rachel

Oh. Yeah. I mean, New York mail is notoriously slow, so…

Quinn

My point being is that I've dated Finn, Puck, Sam, even thought I loved some of them. But by the time the snow falls in New Haven next winter, I won't know why.

Rachel

So are are you saying that Finn and I should break up?

Quinn

I'm all for making the most of the next few months, but I'd hate the idea of dragging an anchor from my past into the bright lights of my future. Rachel, you have an amazing life ahead of you. As hard as it may be if you want what you ever dreamed of, you're gonna have to break up with him.

Rachel

That's an awful thing to say.

Quinn

Look, you wanted straight and thoughtful. I guess at one point it made sense to love somebody for your whole life, but it doesn't anymore. Women are finding themselves in their thirties now, every magazine says it. We hardly know what we're going to want in fifteen years.

Rachel

But Finn and I…we can grow together.

Quinn

Look Rachel, I…you and Finn are a lovely couple. But if you really want to be happy, you're going to have to say goodbye.

Finn

Wow, Quinn, that was incredible!

Will

Even more incredible is her big news. Tell them.

Quinn

I got into Yale! [clapping and cheering]

Will

It's Just--It's amazing for everything you've been through, you really deserve this, Quinn.

Mercedes

We're so proud of you, Quinn.

Quinn

I wanted to thank you guys, because without each and every one of you this would've never happened. You supported me and loved me through all the drama. And that's why I'm standing here. I wasted so much time hating myself for the stupid mistakes that I made, but the truth is is that without all of those I never would've dreamed this to be my future. I was the only one standing in the way of myself. You can't change your past, but you can let go and start your future.[cheering]

Quinn

I feel sorry for Karofsky, but what he did was selfish. He didn't just want to hurt himself, he wanted to hurt everyone around him. I went through the wringer, but I never got to that place-

Kurt

Quinn, please. Sure, you had a baby when you were sixteen, and you had a bad dye job for two weeks, but seriously? The world never stopped loving you. And you're going to Yale. You've no idea what Karofsky was struggling with.

Quinn

You really want to try to compare-

Kurt

The despair, the self-loathing…

Quinn

It doesn't matter. I just can't imagine things getting so messed up that you would consider taking your own life.

Kurt

That is so harsh and reductive. Have some compassion.

Artie

I want to be there to see my kid's first steps.

Sugar

I want to be there to see Sex & The City Part 3.

Wow.

I'm sort of embarrassed to admit it, but I really do want to graduate high school.

Finn

I'm going to petition the Army to change my dad's dishonorable discharge status to an honorable one.

Quinn

I'm looking forward to graduating from Yale at the top of my class.

Santana

I'm looking forward to the day when my grandmother loves me again.

Brittany

I want Lord Tubbington to kick his ecstasy addiction.

Blaine

I'm looking forward to marriage equality in all fifty states.

MIke

I'm looking forward to the first time I dance at Carnegie Hall.

Tina

I just want a song.

Quinn

Hey, how do I look? Coach Sylvester gave it to me early and I couldn't resist.

Rachel

I'm glad you're happy. Everyone deserves to be happy.

Quinn

When you were singing that song, you were singing it to Finn and only Finn, right? He really does make you so happy. I want to support you, Rachel, and Finn, and come to the wedding. If it's not too late.

Rachel

[smiles widely and hugs Quinn]

Mercedes

Finn, out! You can't see the bride before the wedding.

Finn

It's okay, I've already seen her.

Tina

But that's bad luck!

Rachel

No, it's fine.

Finn

Rachel, we gotta go or we're going to lose our slot.

Rachel

Can we please wait a couple more minutes for Quinn, please?

Finn

It's now or never.

Rachel

[grabs her phone and texts Quinn again]

Burt

[to Hiram] If you're going to do something, do it fast.

Hiram

New plan. I'm going to fake an epileptic seizure.

LeRoy

You're not an epileptic.

Hiram

That's why I'm going to fake it.

Burt

Hurry up.

Quinn

[peeks at her cellphone which reads 2 messages & texts to Rachel "on my way"]

Rachel

[smiles] Hi, Quinn! We missed you so much!

Quinn

No, don't. [Artie wheels next to her.] I could've easily become one of those creepy memorial pages in the yearbook, but by the grace of God, I'm here. Believe it or not, this is the happiest day of my life. [turns to Artie] Come on, Artie. I'll race you to the choir room! [wheels away with Artie following]

We all know why we're here. I've waited five years for this. I want ideas for Senior Ditch Day. Go.

Kurt

Ooh! A Gershwin/Sondheim scavenger hunt!

Santana

[scoffs] That sounds like torture.

I want actual ideas, Kurt.

Mike

Footloose marathon. Footloose, Footloose 2011.

Mercedes

What about a non-alcoholic pub crawl?

It's Senior Ditch Day, not Senior Citizen's Ditch Day.

Brittany

It's springtime. I would like to see something give birth. [Tina and Quinn smile and giggle.]

Rachel

[begins to cry] Quinn, I'm so sorry. It was my wedding you were going to when you got in your car crash. And you were answering my text message and now we're all sitting here, we're talking about this day that's suppose to be the most amazing and unforgettable day of our high school lives. And we're completely ignoring the fact that she's sitting in that chair. [shakes her head] It's not right. It's not right and it shouldn't be like this.

Quinn

Well, maybe not, but this is the way it is. My accident, which you did not cause by the way, doesn't define me or ruin our senior year. I meant what I said in the choir room. I'm not going to dwell on this and neither should any of you. Okay? [to Rachel] Come here.

Kitty

Every day I ask myself, "What would Quinn Fabray do?"

Quinn

It's really nice to know that people still remember me.

Kitty

Remember you? Oh no, we aspire to be you. Me especially.

He forgave us for what we did, right?

Quinn

A long time ago.

Quinn

I'm the president of the celibacy club. I took a vow.

So did Santana and Brittany. And I did them.

Rachel

[to Will] So, we have something we need to say to you.

In the beginning of this year I was just another football player.

Tina

I had a stutter.

Mercedes

I was a closeted diva.

Quinn

I used to be captain of the Cheerios.

Mike

I was afraid to dance outside my room.

Santana

I hated everyone in this club.

Brittany

So did I.

Kurt

I wasn't honest about who I was.

I was tossing guys into dumpsters.

Artie

I had never kissed a girl before

Rachel

And I was getting slushied.

Finn

I didn't--I didn't have a father. Someone I could look up to. Model myself after. Someone who could show me what it really meant to be a man.

Rachel

We don't care what the judges say. We won. Because we had you as a teacher.

Mercedes

And Glee Club will never end, Mr. Schue, because you are Glee Club. And you're in all of us now.

Quinn

Did you love me?

Yes. Especially now.
