Rebecca Quote #203
Quote from Rebecca in Don't Paint Your Chickens
Mr. Anawalt: So, you've worked here six years and you've been treated like hell. Hmm.
Rebecca: But I've never been happier in my life. And I'd never want anything to change. Thank you for letting me get that off my chest. [heads out] Damn it. I'm doing it. [turns back] Mr. Anawalt, I have something else to say, and this is it. You wouldn't know a good marketing executive if one came up and bit you on the butt. Now I am better and smarter than 50% of the people that work here, and if you can't see that then you are blind or a buffoon. Take your pick. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to Cheers where I am sure all my personal belongings will be waiting for me in a Hefty bag on the street.
Mr. Anawalt: Miss Howe.
Rebecca: What do you want now?
Mr. Anawalt: You have a lot of nerve talking to me like that. This company was built on nerve. Not enough young people have the guts to stand up and say what they're really thinking. I've been looking for that brave child who wouldn't be afraid to say, "The emperor has no clothes."
Rebecca: He's nude, sir. Buck naked.

Quote from Rebecca
Rebecca: Well, everyone, you are looking at a winner.
Carla: You were the best kisser-upper? Gee, what does that trophy look like?
Rebecca: I did not kiss up. I gave an interview. I gave one hell of an interview. I was tough, I was insightful, I was witty. Meryl Streep will play me in the movie.
Quote from Rebecca
Rebecca: Wait a minute. Here we have a man who doesn't know how to promote his business. And here we have a woman who knows everything about promotion, but has never really been given a chance. Now, if I can turn a beer-guzzling nobody into a successful businessman, then those guys down there at corporate will see that I can do anything.
Norm: Uh, much as I love your pitch, Rebecca, uh, I'm not comfortable working with friends.
Rebecca: Oh, forget about friends. In the cold light of reason, consider this: Please, please, please, for Becky?
Norm: Nah, nah, I'd rather work by myself.
Rebecca: Okay, fine, Norm, fine. I'll just go back to what I was doing. Going over these delinquent bar accounts. Whoa. Now there's a rather huge one in the "P" section.
Norm: [sighs] Welcome to Team Peterson.
Quote from Cliff
Rebecca: Oh. I don't believe this! And I thought they were really impressed with me, and they were just staring at this big, old stupid ink blot.
Woody: It's not that bad, Miss Howe. It's kind of decorative. It looks like, uh, a bunny.
Carla: No, no, it looks like a spider.
Sam: Or a butterfly.
Cliff: Uh, it looks like my parents having a screaming argument on my third birthday when I pretended to be asleep but wasn't. Or a butterfly.
