Carrie Bradshaw
- [last lines]
- Mr. Big: Although there are so many god damn gorgeous women out there in this city.
- Carrie Bradshaw: What an amazing observation.
- Mr. Big: But the thing is this, after a while, you just want to be with the one that makes you laugh. Know what I mean? Okay, see ya.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] I take that back... Beauty is fleeting, but a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever.
- Miranda Hobbes: If men like Nick are dating models, what chance do ordinary women have? I mean, do you have to be a supermodel to get a date in New York?
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] Modelizers are a particular breed. They're a step beyond womanizers, who will sleep with just about anything in a skirt. Modelizers are obsessed, not with women, but with models, who in most cities are safely confined to billboards and magazines, but in Manhattan, actually run wild on the streets, turning the city into a virtual Model Country Safari where men can pet the creatures in their natural habitat. As if we didn't have enough problems!
- Nick Waxler: My friends think I'm shallow. Sometimes I think they're right. Other times I think, "Hey, I'm fucking a model".
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] I couldn't believe it. The man had slept with half the perfume ads in September's 'Vogue'.
- Stanford Blatch: How could you!
- Carrie Bradshaw: I didn't. We just talked.
- Stanford Blatch: Oh, I knew he was gay.
- [first lines]
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] Last night my friend Miranda got invited to a dinner party by a man she hardly knew. She was the date of Nick Waxler, a fairly successful sports agent who'd said she had nice legs.
- Nick Waxler: Okay, old movie stars you would have liked to fuck when they were young.
- Miranda Hobbes: Alive or dead?
- Nick Waxler: It doesn't matter. Veronica Lake, the year she made 'Sullivan's Travels'.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [watching Barkley's sex tape with him, unlit cigarette in mouth] Do you have a light?
- Barkley: Yeah, sure.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] I believe there is a curse put on the head of anybody who tries to fix up their friends.
- Carrie Bradshaw: So, wait, what happened, you couldn't find seats right on the runway?
- Samantha Jones: Oh, you can see all the flaws from this angle.
- Samantha Jones: [about Barkley] Is he dating any one model in particular?
- Carrie Bradshaw: Actually, he's sleeping with all of them in general.
- Mr. Big: I started reading your column after we met.
- Carrie Bradshaw: You did?
- Mr. Big: Yeah, cute.
- Carrie Bradshaw: "Cute."
- Mr. Big: Well... Yeah, cute. What are you writing about this week?
- Carrie Bradshaw: Well, I'm working on a story about men who date models. Any thoughts?
- Mr. Big: Only that they're very lucky.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] It was hard to imagine that anyone so beautiful could ever be lonely.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice over narration] I began to realize that being beautiful is like having a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park: completely unfair and usually bestowed upon those who deserve it least.
- Carrie Bradshaw: [voice-over, after she met Misha:] Suddenly I felt like I was wearing patchouli in a room full of Chanel.
