Quotes21

  • Mark: Would you like to go with me?
  • Daria: Where?
  • Mark: Wherever I'm going.
  • Daria: Are you *really* asking?
  • Mark: Is that your *real* answer?
  • Daria: You want some smoke?
  • Mark: You know, you're taking to a guy under discipline.
  • Daria: What's that?
  • Mark: Dope, I guess. But, this group I was in had rules against smoking. They were into a reality trip.
  • Daria: What a drag!
  • Daria: What do you mean, reality trip? Oh, yeah, they can't imagine things. Were you in with that group? Why didn't you get out?
  • Mark: I wasn't really in a group. I just couldn't stand their bullshit talk. It really bored the hell out of me. But when it gets down to it, you have to choose one side or the other.
  • Daria: There's a thousand sides--not just heroes and villains.
  • [after Mark sees a girl on the street]
  • Morty: Who was that?
  • Mark: A girl from my long-gone past.
  • Morty: What's her name?
  • Mark: Alice--my sister.
  • Mark: I always knew it'd be like this.
  • Daria: Us?
  • Mark: The Desert.
  • Daria: What do you do besides fly airplanes?
  • Mark: Only yesterday I drove a forklift truck at a warehouse. I've done other things.
  • Daria: Been to college?
  • Mark: Some.
  • Daria: Why'd you leave? Grades?
  • Mark: Extracurricular activities.
  • Daria: Like what?
  • Mark: Like stealing hardcover books instead of paperbacks, making phone calls on the Chancellor's stolen credit-card number, whistling in class--and bringing illegal things on campus, like a dog, a bike, and a woman.
  • Daria: Pretend your thoughts are like plants.
  • Mark: Okay.
  • Daria: What do you see? Neat rows? Like a garden? Or wild things? Like ferns and weeds and vines?
  • Mark: I see, sort of, the jungle.
  • Daria: It would be nice if they could plant thoughts in our head so, nobody would have bad memories. We could plant, you know, wonderful things we did--like a happy childhood, real groovy parents, only good things.
  • Mark: Yeah, and make out and forget how terrible it really was.
  • Daria: That's the point! Nothing's terrible!
  • Mark: Far out.
  • Daria: So anyway. So anyway.
  • Mark: What?
  • Daria: So anyway--ought to be one word. The name of some place or a river. The So-Anyway River.
  • Daria: Tbe radio said somebody stole a plane in L.A. this morning. Did you really steal that thing? How come?
  • Mark: I needed to get off the ground.
  • Mark: I'm willing to die, too.
  • Female White Radical Student #3: Alone?
  • Mark: But, not of boredom.
  • [exits the student strike meeting]
  • Cop: [Mark being arrested] Name?
  • Mark: Karl Marx.
  • Cop: How do you spell it?
  • Mark: M-A-R-X.
  • [Cop types: Marx Carl]
  • Daria: So, tell me the rest of your criminal record.
  • Mark: Once I changed my color, but it didn't work. So, I changed back.
  • Mark: Hear any news about the strike?
  • Daria: Not much. I prefer music.
  • Mark: It's getting like they don't even report it unless two or three hundred people get hurt.
  • Daria: Yeah, some kind of record.
  • Mark: Or a cop.
  • Daria: Oh, a cop did get killed and some bushes were trampled. I was trying to find a rock station. I think they said the guy who killed the cop was white.
  • Mark: Oo, white man takin' up arms for Bhe blacks, huh? Just like old John Brown.
  • Daria: Don't you feel at home here? It's peaceful.
  • Mark: It's dead.
  • Daria: You don't want to play that game?
  • Mark: I don't want to play any games at all.
  • Mark: It was nice of you to come with a guy who doesn't turn on.
  • Daria: I'm pretty tolerant.
  • Mark: [painting the Cessna 210] They might not even think its a plane. Strange, prehistoric bird spotted over Mojave Desert with its genitals out.
  • Gun Store Clerk: Help you boys?
  • Bill: We need some guns, right away, for self-defense.
  • Gun Store Clerk: Well, as long as you buy the guns now, then we check it out with Sacramento to see that the record is clean. You can pick it up in four or five days.
  • Bill: But, the law was made for peacetime. This is an emergency.
  • Mark: You see, we live in a neighborhood that's, eh, borderline. You know what I mean? We've got to protect our women.
  • Gun Store Clerk: We'll sure as hell see that you don't go defenseless. For your purposes, fellas, I wouldn't recommend anything smaller than a 38.
  • Daria: Did you hear that the Mexican air force is bombing the grass along the border?
  • Mark: I wonder what else is going on in the rest of the world?
