Brian quotes from Queer as Folk (US)

Brian

Look, I told you, I'm not your lover. I'm not your partner. I'm not even your friend. You're not anything to me.

Justin

I could be, if you gave me a chance.

Brian

Where did you learn to talk like that? Watching some teen drama?

Justin

I need you.

Brian

You think you do, because that's what we're taught to think: "We all need each other." Well, it's a crock of shit. You're the only one you need. You're the only one you've got.

Michael

You ever been on a real date?

Brian

Once. I ended up fucking the waiter.

Brian

The point of a date, or so it's been explained to me by those who do that sort of thing, is that you actually get to know the other person before you fuck them.

Michael

What a dumb idea! What if you don't like them?

Brian

Worse yet, what if you do?

Ted

Roger and I have decided to get to know each other before we have sex.

Brian

What do you think you are, lesbians?

Brian

You know, Dave, what's weird about you meeting Mikey, is that we usually meet guys together.

And they usually end up with you.

Brian

The lucky ones.

Debatable.

Michael

It was never that big.

Brian

Hey, you haven't seen it in a long time.

Michael

I haven't seen Gone With the Wind in a long time either but I know it's still 3 and a half hours.

Brian

Fuck you. I haven't thought about Michael once tonight.

Ted

What do you know! Just like when he's here!

Emmett

Time for your temperature! Roll over!

Brian

You're not sticking that thing up my ass!

Ted

Jeez, that accident must have really jarred your brain.

David

I told Mikey you'd be all right but he had to come running back.

Brian

What can I say, he's a sweetheart.

David

That's because you're all that matters to him. You're his world, his life. Everything he thinks about, everything he dreams about, everything he knows.

Brian

He's my best friend since we were 14.

David

That's 16 years of waiting. He's been waiting so long he actually thanks he's happy. But you and I both know that he's never gonna get what he really wants, is he?

Brian

Well what is that, Doc?

David

For you to fuck him! And don't tell me you don't know it... and you love knowing it, don't you?

Brian

You've been around for what, a week? You think you know him? You don't.

David

I'd like to. But I never will as long as you're around. Maybe I should just disappear. You'd probably like that and he probably wouldn't think twice about me. But I'm not going to. I'm not going to disappear. Because I want him. Even more than you don't want me to have him. So if you're really his best friend... give him a chance to be happy. To have a life. His own life. Let him go.

Justin

Did I tell you my dad wants to send me to military school? I said, "Fuck no."

Brian

I think your dad might be right. A Little military school or something might do you good.

Emmett

I always wanted to go to military school. Those sleek uniforms, so well cut.

Ted

Taking orders, getting punished when you're naughty. [Bends over and all slaps Emmett's butt.]

Emmett

Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.

And don't forget showering with all those cadets.

Emmett

Oh...

Emmett

Oh my, whoever thought we'd see the day. Brian Kinney driving an Economy compact.

Ted

Subcompact.

Brian

I have to get another car this weekend.

Another fuck mobile?

Emmett

Please, at his age he needs all the help he can get to attract those hot, young things.

Ted

I thought after what happened you might consider something more practical.

Brian

Something an accountant might drive?

You don't want any more weirdo's ramming into you.

Emmett

Never heard him complaining about that before.

Brian

You're not crying, are you?

Justin

I'm not some little faggot.

Brian

No, you're not. You're pretty brave actually.

Brian

He's not my responsibility!

Jennifer

Oh, yes he is! You seduced him, you... fucked him! So now he's yours!

Wow, beautiful baby! Looks just like you.

Lindsay

Why thank you, so do our five others. I'm gonna go change him, honey.

Brian

You do that, sweetie. [Lindsay and Brian kiss]

Brian

So in other words, for Justin to live here with you he has to deny who he is, what he thinks, and how he feels?

Craig

No one asked for your opinion, pal.

Brian

Well, that's not love. That's hate.
