Marc St. James quotes from Ugly Betty

Marc

By the way, when we move into Daniels office I'm not sitting on Betty's old chair... 'cause this bum don't slum.

Wilhelmina

Um, that's not what I've heard.

Marc

You do not say no to Sarah Jessica Parker! She's the Holy Grail of Fashion!

Christina

I know!

Marc

And this is your big chance! And my big chance: to meet her husband, Ferris Bueller Parker.

Marc

We shall overcome, girlfriend.

Wilhelmina

You did not just say that.

Wilhelmina

[about her hemline] Higher... I said higher!

Christina

Any higher and I'll be giving you a pelvic exam!

Marc

Ow! Well, fill my bucket with nothing but thighs!

Wilhelmina

Relax, Colonel. We all know you prefer nuggets.

Amanda

Sure, today I'm the eye candy, but tomorrow I'll be old candy. Old, hard, wrinkly candy, covered in lint.

Marc

Are you having a stroke?

Amanda

Maybe. I'm old enough!

Amanda

Yesterday you told me my head was too big for my neck.

Marc

That was constructive criticism.

Amanda

Well, what am I supposed to do about it?

Marc

I don't know. As a friend, my job is only to point things out.

Wilhelmina

Fabia? That little Euro-Wench is getting married?

Marc

And she got Elton John to sing for the wedding. He's re-written "Candle In the Wind" just for her.

Wilhelmina

What? He was re-writing "Candle in the Wind" for me!

Marc

Ugh. Give that queen twenty-bucks and she'll re-write it for anybody.

Wilhelmina

Get Fabia over here. Wedding Summit '07 is on!

Amanda

[about Fey] I just stare at her picture all day and then I stare at myself in the mirror.

Marc

More than usual?

Amanda

Yeah.

Amanda

Suddenly I'm a caregiver. That is so not who I am.

Marc

It's true. You're a bit of a monster on the inside.

Marc

What year were you born?

Amanda

1991.

Marc

You're 16?

Amanda

1992.

Marc

Other way.

Amanda

You and him?

Marc

Why not? He's a 9, I'm an 8.

Amanda

He's a 10, you're a 6.

Marc

You're a bitch, I'm a 7!

Marc

Have you seen Cliff yet?

Amanda

Don't worry. Your wide-load lover will be here any minute.

Marc

Amanda, don't joke. I'm freaking out! I am debuting him today as my boyfriend and I have no idea what's gonna walk through that door.

Amanda

Sweetie, relax. He can't fit through those doors.

Marc

Aw, are you playing "Papa Can You Hear Me" again?

Amanda

I'm just spending some quality time with my dads. Today I'm feeling particularly close to Jimmy "Jay Jay" Walker. Dynamite.

Marc

[about Connor] Oh, my God, you like him!

Wilhelmina

Don't be ridiculous!

Marc

Willie, you saluted him! You haven't saluted anyone since Cheney. You have fallen for him like everyone else here!

Wilhelmina

I don't fall for anyone, Marc! I am not like those other women out there, ruled by their emotions.

Marc

Willie, it's okay to feel something.

Wilhelmina

No, it's not. Not when it gets in the way of ambition. How do you think I got this far? Now, I've had my momentary lapse of judgment, but that is over now.

Wilhelmina

[after learning she has been seated in the second row at Fashion Week] How could this happen? Have I changed? Have I gone soft?

Marc

No. You're still as horrible and evil as the day that Satan himself placed you in your mother's arms.

Wilhelmina

Oh, darling, that's sweet.
