Queer as Folk (US) Season 4 quotes

Hunter

No one's ever gonna love me.

Ben

That's not true. We love you. Whether you're positive or not. Whether you're gay or not.

Michael

And others will too.

Ben

I'd say we're in great shape for the ride, wouldn't you?

Michael

Provided my ass holds out.

Ben

I've never known it to fail.

Michael

You've never ridden it for 300 miles.

Horvath

I need someone in my life who will make me laugh, make me feel good.

Michael

I'm already taken, Carl.

Debbie

So you wanted to tell me something? Go ahead I'm all ears.

Debbie, honey...

Debbie

Fuck! I need ear muffs! It's supposed be as colder than a witch's tit in Canada!

Ben

Gears lubed up, seat nice and tight.

Hunter

I'm gonna ride it, not fuck it.

Emmett

She'll come out in her own time, just like the rest of us.

Lindsay

How many times can someone reject you before you just give up?

Debbie

How many times in your life do you get an engagement ring?

Elizabeth Taylor, 8 times, twice from Richard Burton. Jennifer Lopez, 3, Julia Roberts, 4.

Debbie

When a man gives you a ring it's special, it's meaningful.

Michael

Well, I wouldn't know.

Ben

Then maybe it's time you found out.

Michael

Found out what?

Ben

Michael Novotny. You are the man I've been looking for all my life. I am so very blessed to have found you. Which is why I'm asking you to due me the honor [takes out a ring] of accepting my hand in marriage. We're going to Toronto, where gay marriage is not only accepted, it's legal. And like you said, that's what two people do when they love each other, right?

Michael

I don't know what to say.

Ben

Yes would be good...

Michael

You're probably going to think I'm crazy but you know what this street reminds me of?

Liberty Avenue.

Brian

Since when did you ever have the least interest in getting married?

Michael

I didn't! But not because I didn't want to. But because I never thought I could. It wasn't a story I told myself like straight kids did, you know, that someday I'd meet that special person and we'd fall in love and have a big wedding... it was never real for me.

Brian

We're queer. We don't need marriage, we don't need a sanction of dickless politicians and pederast priests. We fuck who we want to, when we want to. That is our god-given right.

Michael

But it's also our god-given right to have everything that straight people have. Because we're every bit as much human as they are.

And do you Ben promise to love, respect, and cherish Michael and be his true and faithful husband?

Hunter

Say 'I do,' dude.

Ben

I do.

Ted

Anyway, it's not just for Michael and Ben. If things had been different, maybe -

Emmett

No point in beating yourself up, Teddy. We're still friends, aren't we? Which means we'll be together a lot longer than most marriages.
