Seth Cohen quotes from The O.C.

Marissa

Why won't you tell me where we're going? This is pretty far away.

Seth

Oh, wow -- complaining. That's very interesting, considering nobody invited you.

Marissa

Before I came along you were on a skateboard.

Marissa

Do you like them? [the music playing on the car's player]

Ryan

Yeah I guess.

Marissa

Well, what do you like?

Ryan

Everything. I don't know, I don't really listen to music.

Seth

Dude, that's kinda weird.

Ryan

Why, what do you like?

Marissa

Oh, right now..? Punk.

Seth

I'm sorry, Avril Lavigne doesn't count as punk.

Marissa

Oh yeah? Well what about The Cramps, Stiff Little Fingers, The Clash, Sex Pistols?

Seth

I listen to the same music as Marissa Cooper? I think I have to kill myself.

Luke

Shut up, queer.

Seth

Well, at least I don't shave my chest.

Luke

What did you just say?

Seth

I just said you look good in a sweater vest. It was a compliment.

Sandy

The minute you were born, I knew that I would never take another easy breath again without knowing that you were safe.

Seth

So, I'm like asthma?

Jimmy

So, how's your mother?

Seth

Ahh, just... married.

Seth

I'm going to visit Ryan. I thought, you know, maybe you'd like to come. I'm sure he'd love to see you.

Marissa

Uh, what's that, Seth? Did you say you need a ride to a Star Wars convention?

Seth

Star Wars convention? I'm sorry, her top was off. You couldn't at least have said X-Men for me?

Ryan

What do you do exactly? Real estate or construction?

Seth

Dude, don't ask.

Kirsten

I tried to explain it to Seth once and he fell asleep halfway through.

Seth

[sheepishly] Ok...but..uh...yeah, it's pretty much true. [Kirsten smirks]

Ryan

[to Kirsten] Try me.

Kirsten

Seth, we need to talk to Ryan.

Seth

Okay. If this has to do with the rug, though, I just wanted to tell you that Ryan had nothing to do with it.

Kirsten

What about the rug?

Seth

I'm gonna go now.

Anna

Could you be any more pathetic? A lone figure sitting on the floor, wondering if he's gonna be lonely for the rest of his life.

Seth

Hey, your sensitivity -- it's really, uh, nonexistent.

Anna

You know what your problem is? You're not a man.

Seth

Again, not appreciating the brutal honesty.

Ryan

Ever since your parents took me in they've been, like, paying for everything. I can't keep taking their money.

Seth

They're parents. They work for us.

Ryan

No, they work for you.

Ryan

It's kind of a shady neighborhood. It's pretty hardcore up there.

Seth

Dude, it's Long Beach, not Chechnya.

Caleb

Seth! Ah... You're still not a football player.

Seth

Ha, no, but thank you.

Gabrielle

I'm being sarcastic.

Seth

Ah... Yes, we don't get a lot of that around here.

Gabrielle

Fifth grade? Okay, she needs to change that. She's known that guy since he's been eating paste.

Seth

I think he still does.

Caleb

You have a quick wit, Seth. Amazing you're not better at skirt-chasing.

Seth

If by "skirts" you mean girls in your outdated cowboy-speak, I have a little news for you. Turns out somebody has a date to your party. And it's not a big deal or anything, but if you must know, Summer asked me.

Sandy

Summer. Wow. Summer's hot.

Seth

You did not just say that.
