Quote from Diane in No Help Wanted

Diane: Sam, I'm standing by you. I may not agree with you, but I admire your courage. I know exactly how you feel.
Sam: Oh, you do?
Diane: Yes, Sam, I have personal experience standing against the majority. Resisting the force of public opinion for the sake of personal principle.
Sam: Is that right? Like what?
Diane: Well, in my senior year, I fought single-handedly to integrate my sorority.
Sam: Oh, you hear this? What, they wouldn't let blacks in?
Diane: Well, it wasn't about the blacks. That's really not the point.
Cliff: What was it, some other race?
Diane: Well, no.
Carla: A religion?
Diane: Well, it wasn't exactly a religion.
Sam: Well, come on. Who? Who?
Diane: [mumbles]
Sam: What? Who wouldn't they let in?
Diane: Girls with poorly-publicized coming-out parties. And within a couple of months, they blended right in.
