ChristianLet your shortcomings and imperfections fuel you. When you stop striving for perfection you might as well be dead.
Christian[after Julia had walked in on him in bed with the twins] I'm sorry. I didn't mean for you to catch me in the middle of a DoubleMint moment right there.
Christian[referring to the threat of a malpractice lawsuit] I don't know what our options are, Sean. I've worked too hard to end up at 40 saying, "Hi, welcome to Cinnabon. How may I help you?"
Christian[to Sean, referring to Dr. Grace Santiago] You're listening to the concern of Salsa Spice over the judgment of your partner?
ChristianYou´re beautiful, Mrs. Grubman. Unfortunately, we live in a world where only one kind of beauty is recognized. But I´m telling you, tonight, the way you worked that room, the way you flirted with those rich guys, batted your eyes and walked away with a $100,000 check for a cause that needs you that was beautiful to me.
ChristianThe line that divides the porn industry and the plastic surgery is a thin one. We're both selling fantasy, aren't we?
Christian[refering to Merrill, who is dressed in a white suit] You look like a Q-Tip.
ChristianEver notice how "monogamy" rhymes with "monotony"?
ChristianDr. Santiago, maybe you should consider having your own orgasm every now and then so you don't have to live through mine.
Christian[to Gina] Come on, time to twelve-step your way out of here.
ChristianNone of us get out alive. Now you can huddle in a group and face it one day at a time, or you could be grateful that when your body rubs against someone else's, it explodes with enough pleasure that you can forget, even for a minute, that you're only a walking pile of ashes. Now that is the truth. If you're strong, it'll make you free. If you're weak, it'll make you, you.
ChristianYou know what they say. For every beautiful girl there is a guy tired of screwing her.
ChristianIf I'm going to do this one woman thing, it can't be with just one woman.
ChristianI've lost my faith, Father. I've drank, I've done drugs, I've fornicated with women and discarded them like trash. I've lost my soul. The boys you raped will be saying the same thing in 20 years.
ChristianI don't excel at anything. My relationships, my profession... All I have to offer is a great smile and a convincing line of bullshit.
