- Tibby: The problem is every time I try to get close to somebody it's like there's something out there that just says oh Tibby's about to be happy, better get her.
- [Last lines]
- Carmen Lowell: Sometimes I like to think that the pants got lost on purpose. That this was their final gift to us. Bringing us back together. Back to a place of forgiveness, and love, and in understanding that what we shared was all the magic we could ever need. And as we spent those last few moments of summer, looking out at the blending of sea and sky, I realized it was a color I knew very well. The softly faded, essential blue of a well worn pair of pants. The pants had brought us together again. The rest was in our hands.
- Tibby: Are you sure it was a real one?
- Brian McBrian: Yes, I'm sure! My uncle gave it to me for graduation, I was saving it.
- Tibby: For two years?
- [while stuidying for the play]
- Carmen Lowell: "Oh, Lady Fortune! Stand you auspicious!" God! Why don't people talk like this anymore? It's just, we've gotten so lazy! We don't say "Oh, Lady Fortune! Stand you auspiscious!" We say "Dear God, help me..."
- Ian: Or instead of "Enjoy the honey heavy-dew of slumber", "Yo, get some Z's"
- Carmen Lowell: It's just... It sounds so good and it feels so good to say. It's rich and luscious.
- [Carmen touches her cheek]
- Ian: "See how she lays her cheek upon her hand. Oh, that I were a glove upon her hand and I might touch that cheek"
- [Carmen blushes]
- Ian: See what I mean?
- Carmen Lowell: [blushing] Yup.
- Tibby: There is a tourist with the pants and he's at the restaurant. So if we go to the restaurant, we'll find this particular tourist with the jeans who might be there. Will probably be there. He'll be there.
- Ian: You welcome.
- Carmen Lowell: [sarcastic] Oh, I'm sorry. Did I forget to say thank you?... Thank you.
- Ian: How do you feel?
- Carmen Lowell: Like a fake.
- Ian: Oh, please! You had them at "Um... hi"
- Julia: [lying] Ian asked me to dinner. I mean, I can be so dense sometimes I didn't even know he liked me that way. Did you?
- Carmen Lowell: No. But then again, I can be pretty dense too.
- Tibby: Where the hell is this coming from?
- Carmen Lowell: You know the fact that you even have to ask that question pretty much says everything.
- Tibby: What was I, just like the first girl to say yes?
- Brian McBrian: Of course not.
- Tibby: I wasn't the first girl?
- Brian McBrian: No, I mean, of course you are.
- Carmen Lowell: [to Julia] If there's one thing I've learnt this summer, it's that no one can diminish you but yourself. And you taught me that.
- Brian McBrian: Why didn't you just talk to me, Tib?
- Tibby: [long pause] Because I can't lie to you as well as I can lie to myself.
