Zoey quotes from The Proud Family

Zoey

[to Penny] Bebe and Cece are hot and you're not!

Trudy

[to Penny] Ok, baby. You know the rules. No loud music.

No boys.

Trudy

No running up my phone bill.

No boys.

Trudy

And the most important rule of all...

No boys.

Penny

Why is everyone at school separated?

Zoey

What do you mean?

Penny

You know, the whites, the blacks, LaCienega.

Zoey

Dijonay, I didn't know you speak Italian.

Dijonay

I was speaking Italian?

Penny

I can't show that tape. It will hurt Wizzie's feelings.

Zoey

He's rich! He can buy new feelings!

Tookie Thomas, come on down!

I want my mommy!

Penny

Michael, stop!

I would if I were Michael, but I'm not. Who's a sissy now?

I am, I am! I'm a sissy.

Penny

Look, I know he hurt you, Michael, but this is not the answer.

I'm just following your advice. I'm doing something about the way people treat me.

Penny

Yes, but I say to express your feelings, not hurt people. [Everyone gasp] Doing this doesn't make you any better than them.

But it makes me feel better.

Penny

Look, I know how you feel.

You don't know how I feel...how it hurts when people laugh at you, make you feel different like you're a freak of nature. You don't know how it feels to go home and cry because people you thought were your friends really aren't. You don't know how it feels to be ridiculed because you're you.

Well, I'll tell you Tookie. If being a sissy means you're a good student, a sensational designer, a fabulous basketball player, who schooled you on the court, a loyal, caring friend...then I'm cool with it, cause that's who I am.

And-and that's what I meant when I said it. No disrespect here.

Yeah Michael. I mean, I was just going along with everybody else. I'm sorry, man. I'm not mad at you. You're not mad at me, are you?

Nubia

Yeah, hey, Michael, I mean, you cool with the Gross Sisters. Anybody give you grief, we got your back. All right, everybody, break it up. It's over.

Hey, Michael, I like what you said, man. You got heart, dawg. And by the way, I like that jacket. Where can I get one?

Call me.

Zoey

Way to go, Michael.

Penny

So do you feel any better?

Yeah, I do. I feel great. I finally stood up for myself. You were right, Penny. That's all I had to do.

Penny

Exactly. Because it's not good to keep things bottled up inside.

Dijonay

Yeah, because you want to start Candy Man on us.

This next song goes out to my main man, Michael. Check it out, y'all. Check it out.

Hey, that's my song!

LaCienega

Michael, would you like to dance?

No, thank you. I'm here with Penny.

Penny

Go ahead. I don't mind.
