Sally Draper quotes from Mad Men

Sally Draper

[sitting in front of Joan, coloring] You've got big ones. My mommy has big ones. When I grow up, I'm gonna have big ones too.

Sally Draper

[to Don] You say things and you don't mean them. And you can't just do that.

Sally Draper

When I think about forever I get upset. Like the Land of Lakes butter has that Indian girl, sitting holding a box, and it has a picture of her on it, holding a box, with a picture of her on it, holding a box. Have you ever noticed that?

Sally Draper

I'm sorry I broke your suitcase.

Don Draper

Find out how much it is to repair and it will come out of your allowance.

Sally Draper

I don't have an allowance.

Don Draper

Then don't break things.

Sally Draper

I just thought - I just didn't want you to go.

Don Draper

Come here. [hugs her] I'll always come home. You'll always be my girl.

Don

I was in a pitch meeting, and I told them the truth about me. But it was the wrong time.

Sally

What was the truth?

Don

Nothing you don't know.

Don

Isn't this something? [Talking about the moon landing]

Sally

I guess.

Don

So you're unimpressed?

Sally

It's such a waste of money.

Don

You don't really think that, do you?

Sally

We'll be going there all the time while people go hungry down here.

Don

Don't be so cynical. You want your little brothers to talk that way?

Sally

[thinks] No.

Betty

[to Sally about her cancer diagnosis] Henry shouldn't have scared you. I wanted to tell you myself.

Sally

He doesn't know you won't get treatment because you love the tragedy.

Betty

Sally, I've learned to believe people when they tell you it's over. They don't want to say it, so it's usually the truth.

Sally

Henry says you could have a year.

Betty

And what would that year be like?

Sally

I'll be with you. I won't let you give up!

Betty

I know that. But I watched my mother die. I won't do that to you. And I don't want you to think I'm a quitter. I've fought for plenty in my life. That's how I know it's over. It's not a weakness. It's been a gift to me. To know when to move on.
