this movie had a lot of good quotes, but my personal fav. is when Eddie has this huge hickey on his neck and Jane says "What happened to you?" and Eddie says "I bit myself shaving" i laugh hysterically everytime i hear that! Hugh Jackman is such a hottie...
Thats MY favorite quote! hahahaha, i love it. My other favorite quote is when Ray is staring straight at the screen, and with the retarded beseeching look
"You're so easy to talk to, not like my current cow" HAHAHAHA SUCH A SAP!!!! aanyhoodles, do you know anything about the alternate ending? I just cant seem to find the dvd copy with it on it
I've gotta agree with you, madbrilliantgotr.
SO FUNNY!!!
FRANK IS LIVING IN MY FOOT!
My favorite quote was when Eddie was reading one of Jane's book out loud. His reaction was cute!! But then, so is he.. LOL!!
Katie
I love that part! ...the males start chewing each others penises off?...I worry about you Jane I really do."
His expression was great!
Love Hugh jackman!

"If your gonna insult someone, insult them right!"
I totally agree madbrilliantgotr! I laugh maniacally every time I hear it too!It is my favorite quote and I love Hugh Jackman and this movie!!!
shareI have a couple of favorites:
Best Hepburn and Tracy banter I:
Eddie: Nina, you left these in my bathroom. (hands her earrings)
Jane: You don't waste any time, do you?
Eddie: Cynic!
Jane: Slut!
Best Banter II:
Eddie: This isn't about taking sides, Jane. It's about dealing with reality. You need to get a grip.
Jane: Oh, that's rich coming from an emotional moron whose whoring his way through Manhattan using women like ATM machines!
Eddie: That's great! I get dumped and sleep around a little and I'm a moron. You get dumped and become the disciple of some crone/quack behavioral scientist who can't even tell the difference between quadrapeds and bipeds and you're normal!
Jane: She is not a crone.
Eddie: How do you know?
Jane: And she's not a quack.
Eddie: Who gives a sh*t!
Best thing any guy ever said to any girl in a movie:
Eddie: I know what it does to you. I know. Maybe that's why we hold on as hard as we do. We just can't believe that such a miracle could ever happen to us twice...but it can. Someday you'll find it again. I promise you.
Jane: Look at me...a mess.
Eddie: I'm looking at you. And you're beautiful. You're beautiful (puts his arm around her as she begins to cry), intelligent and real. And Ray is not the last man you're ever going to love. I promise you, he's not.
(He holds her as she sobs)
And then, of course, there's that kiss at the end. Mmmmmmmmmmm.
"Time wounds all heels." For sure. But I like to think of it as "Time wounds all heals." The reverse of "Time heals all wounds." Because time does heal wounds for a certain amount of time, but then it always circles around again and wounds the heals. Either way, it's a fantastic line.
shareI agree funniest line ever, time wounds all heals-ive seen this film like 20 times and it still cracks me up :D
I'd Rather Be His Whore Than Your Wife!
I first heard that come out of John Lennon's mouth, when asked how it felt to get his visa back after fighting the US state department.
"I'm issuing a restraining order: Religion must stay 500 yards away from Science at all times!!"
I agree with you Moviemom. I love the quote when Eddie holds Jane and they fall asleep together. But i also like the quote about bitting himself shaving. The look on his face there is priceless.
shareI agree with moviemom too, when she's crying and he tells he Ray isn't the last man she'll ever love.
"I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not."

I can't remember who said it, but:
"Maybe that's why we hold on as hard as we do, we just can't believe such a miracle can happen to us twice...but it can, someday you'll find it again."
I like when Eddie gets fed up with Jane in the bar and says "Jane these are people. Not cows!" Something about that line always gets me laughing. I love Ray's "not like my current cow" part too, that one is hilarious!
sharethe soppy one of course..'Because if this theory is wrong, men don't leave all women, Eddie, they leave me.' broke my heart that line..lol

I love:
There are few things sadder in this life than watching someone walk away after they've left you, watching the distance between your bodies expand until there's nothing but empty space and silence.
So sad. So true...
But then:
You look like you hate my guts.
I do hate your guts.
haha Love Jane's plain sincerity!
And Eddie's "I worry about you, Jane. I really do." after going through her books. haha
Jane: I want my erotic nose brain removed.
Doc: I beg your pardon?
Liz: Guess who answers the phone at 1 am Paris time? Penelope Pope.
Jane: Who's Penelope Pope?
Liz: I have no idea. But that's what she said when I asked, "Who the *beep* is this?!"
When Eddie was trying to pronounce the yoga word haha
And so many, so many others...
I bit myself shaving is a winner, but the followup, "That's what turtlenecks are for" "That's what Darlene is for...." isn't bad either. A wonderful comic and revealing moment early on that Eddie is a serial womanizer who is totally open about it....no concealing turtleneck for him! ...and who is almost ADVERTISING the fact to keep decent women like Jane who are looking for real relationships ( and in whom he might actually be interested, and by whom he might be hurt) away.

lol i dont know why but i like the part where she's talking about eddie's date with the girl who ate the ice cream right out of the container..lol and then he goes "goodnight you psycho!" and she goes "goodnight you neophiliac." haha gets me everytime
[deleted]
Yep, I was going to say "... and that's bad? Women who EAT?!" Loved the way she said that.
Also the scene where Liz and Jane are waiting in the street after Ray hasn't called Jane for a few days and Liz says "If he ain't sleeping with you, he ain't sleeping alone... Right?" - that bit where she looks at the guy next to her and says "Right?" always cracks me up!
Jay: I understand about 20% of what goes on around here.
In response to slperry's comment about Eddie letting everyone know what a scoundrel he is so that nice girls will stay away:
I never thought about that! Could it be that Eddie knows himself that well? That really would make him the rogue with a heart of gold, which would lead any true romantic -- like Jane -- to just fall head over heels for him anyway!

So sad. So true...
------------------------------
But I disagreed actually. At the time it happens is not nearly as sad as that time several days later when you've been completely alone for a while and come to believe it will be your permanent state.
That IS an awesome line, very good writing. I think that's the best scene in the movie, writing-wise. That is really great when he says, "Please Ray, won't you make a liar out of me, " and he did go back, but just with the wrong girl.
It's excellent, a little too good for this movie, I think. Makes me wonder if maybe it came directly from the book...
There are some really funny lines, but that "Blow me," at the very beginning... That is hilarious. It is so serious and comes out of nowhere!
