Quotes9

  • Reiner: Men are attracted to flawed women, too, of course, but their illusion is that they can fix them. Women don't want to fix anything. They only want to be entertained. The truth about women is you can do anything to them except bore them.
  • Reiner: Are you really that cold?
  • Malkina: The truth has no temperature.
  • Reiner: I don't know what
  • [Malkina]
  • Reiner: knows. I don't want to know.
  • Counselor: You don't trust her.
  • Reiner: Jesus Counselor, she's a woman.
  • Counselor: Yeah, well.
  • Reiner: Yeah, well, I don't mean to sound cold, I just mean that where women are concerned, they've got their own agenda. I always liked smart women, but it's been an expensive hobby.
  • Malkina: Greed really takes you to the edge, doesn't it?
  • Reiner: That's not what greed does. That's what greed is.
  • Reiner: Of course, anybody who thinks he's the smartest is on his way to the slam.
  • Counselor: You don't trust her?
  • Reiner: Jesus, Counselor. She's a woman.
  • Reiner: I always liked smart women. But it's been an expensive hobby, you know?
  • Reiner: Women like you.
  • Counselor: All right.
  • Reiner: Do you know what they like about you?
  • Counselor: I'm a good fuck?
  • Reiner: Right! No, they can sniff out the moral dilemma. The paradox. "Moral dilemma." Yeah, they're drawn to it. Not sure why. Maybe it's just that lacking any moral sense themselves, they're fascinated by it in men. Men are attracted to flawed women, too, of course, but their illusion is that they can fix them. Women don't want to fix anything. They only want to be entertained. The truth about women is you can do anything to them except bore them.
  • Reiner: They know that you're stupid. They just don't know how stupid.
