Ted quotes from Queer as Folk (US)

Emmett

Are you sure you should be eating all that?

Ted

What goes in today gets sucked out tomorrow.

You look pretty beat up, babe. Did a man do that to you?

Ted

Huh?

Too bad I wasn't around to protect you. But don't you worry, kid. That swelling is gonna go down and when it does, you're going to be just as pretty as ever.

Emmett

Congratulations, stud. That's your third time tonight.

Ted

Who's keeping score?

Emmett

I am. Look at him, so smug, so self-satisfied. Now is the perfect time to send him off with his... not-unattractive tail between his legs.

Brian

What the fuck for? You've got the son of a bitch where you want him, with his ass in the air, and it's not a bad one, I might add.

Emmett

Don't listen to him! Tell.

Brian

What the hell does he know? Fuck!

Ted

Would you get off my back?!

Ted

Look at it this way. You'll always have something to remember me by.

You're dumping me?

Ted

It's a fag-eat-fat world.

Fuck you. You know... I liked you. A lot. I really did.

Ted

Come on Brian, you can't fool me. You gotta free yourself of this burden. Release it, let it all hang out!

Brian

[Deadpan] My mother is a frigid bitch, my father was an abusive drunk; they had a hateful marriage, which is probably why I am unwilling, or unable, to form a long-term committed relationship of my own. The fact that I drink like a fish, abuse drugs and have more or less redefined promiscuity doesn't help, much. As a result I've lost the two people in my life that mean the most to me. [Referring to Justin and Michael]

Ted

There. Don't you feel better.

Brian

No. But I'm sure you do.

Emmett

It was obvious to everyone from the moment I popped out of my mama that I was the new queen of Hazelhurst. They almost named me Elizabeth.

Ted

You're lucky.

Emmett

That they named me Emmett?

Ted

That it was obvious. That you never had to go through the hell of hiding it, the fear of being found out.
