~~~~Quotes~~~~
PACEY (to Jen): You don’t think Dawson’s gonna care that we were attempting to map out each others erogenous zones between his sheets?
PACEY (to Dawson): Look at her -- she’s a freakin’ goddess. How long do you think it’s gonna be before some guy, somewhere, notices that and gets interested in her? And what are you gonna do then, my friend? You gonna practice what you preach and let the girl go or dig on in for Dawson’s last stand? DAWSON: I’ll figure that out as it comes. PACEY: Better figure it out quick. Cause this guy, whoever he is, he’s not going to be your best friend, Dawson. He’s not gonna ask permission. When he wants to dance with Joey, he’s just gonna cut right in.
PACEY: Take it from someone who's been there. It's a defining moment. When you finally see your parents as human beings, with their own set of problems. In a weird way, it's liberating. Realizing they're even more messed up than we are, and that it's not worth despising them for it, you know?
PACEY: I don't know, Lindley, and I don't care. All I know is that in November of 1999, four hyper-verbal teens went into the woods on Witch Island to make a stupid documentary for history class. Eight hours later, two of them started making out...
PACEY: They should bring "The Real World" here next season. Seven strangers, picked to live on an island haunted by witches. Find out what happens when they stop being polite and start getting on the witches' nerves.
Pacey and Andie on the "True Love"…
ANDIE: I slept with another boy. Six months ago! Even then, I knew it was wrong. I tried to explain that to you. How many times do I have to say it? PACEY: If you wanted to sleep with him -- even for a second -- maybe it wasn't wrong after all. Maybe it was your heart telling you that I'm not the one. Because that's what my heart's telling me now. That you're not the one.
I have one more Group activity follow me
You think she's a virgin? You want to nail her?
Oh, Joey, you die so well!
Do you know how difficult it is to fail? Ok, this has taken a considerable amount of work and energy.
Yeah. Call it the law of averages, call it an act of God, call it whatever you want, but I got her.
PACEY: The time has come to ask yourself some serious questions, Dawson. Because it seems to me you're exhausting an awful lot of energy over a girl you call your friend. So let's settle it once and for all. Who is it, Dawson? Who's the one you really want? Is it Jen or is it Joey? The blonde or the brunette? Because these questions aren't going away, Dawson. And I think it's time for you to start providing some answers.
Well, she probably didn't recognize me I just had my tips frosted.
I'm the best sex you'll never have.
Uh, i'm the drummer for Pearl Jam.Girl: You're dummer than who?
You know, it's amazing. A personality like yours and you still can's get any dates. Joey: Even more amazing. A personality like yours and you can.
I just thought that maybe snails are just like guys. You know, their ultimate fantasy is to be with two female snails at the same time. Maybe that was what we needed to get this project rolling.
"We've got exactly 4 concentrated hours in which to study for the deadliest exam of our young adult lives."
You, Andie McPhee, are the girl that I love to hate.
You know, Chris, is there anything redeeming about you other than your house?"
* "...she needs me, and I have absolutely no intention of letting her go." --Pacey
* "I see the misguided lashings of a bitter, lonely old man who only feels good when somebody in the class feels worse." --Pacey
PACEY: What we had was this amazing thing to me. I don't think you ever realized how powerful it was. You changed my life, Andie. You were that person. You inspired me to be somebody I'd only dreamed about being. When you started to get sick, I remember thinking for the first time, maybe I wasn't that person for you. I didn't want to believe it, I didn't have to believe it, so I didn't. But now... now I have to. And I can't go back to loving you the way I did if I know my love wasn't strong enough in the first place.
PACEY (to Dawson): If it isn't Inspector Get-A-Clouseau. What brings you around these parts at this late hour?
PACEY (to Joey): Ever stop to think about how much hormonally charged energy you put into the quick quips and biting banter? Your life would be considerably more productive if you took some, what's that word again, oh that's it -- action.
PACEY: You look happy... or is that just your usual library glow? ANDIE: You know free books... makes me giddy.
WILL: Do my best. Any advice? PACEY: Avoid public nudity, drugs, first degree murder... you know, the obvious. And most importantly, don’t sleep with your teacher. That never works out as well as you’d think it might. WILL: Witter words of wisdom. Priceless.
