Debra Quote #198

Quote from Debra in Working Girl

Ray: Come on, what happened? What did you do?
Debra: Nothing. Ally forgot her permission slip for the zoo. So then I had to deal with the school and fax something over there. And then my boss just freaked out. God!
Ray: Well, that's not nice. It's not nice.
Debra: To think I was excited to work for a woman. God! I'm telling you, these career women are the worst. They sacrifice all their happiness to get where they are now. And they want everybody else to do exactly the same.
Ray: Women. Yeah.
Debra: Oh. Don't try to be supportive. It's way too late for that.

Quote from Ray

Debra: God, look I can't go back there. It's just too humiliating. I just- Oh God, I don't know what happened to me. The whole time I was arguing with Charlotte I was thinking, "Come on, what are you doing? Stop talking." But I had to keep fighting for Pete Za.
Ray: You know, I know why you fight. It's because you're surrounded by Barones. It's a jungle here. It's survival of the fittest. No, if you didn't learn how to hold your own my mother would be wearing you as a coat.
Debra: Look, I'm not gonna blame your family for me losing my job.
Ray: Why not?
Debra: Because that's a big cop-out.
Ray: I'm doing it when I get fired from my job.

Charlotte Sterling: Yes, we do have an opening and I'm sure that you're a really fast learner. But I really need someone with more PR experience.
Marie: You don't understand. I have to get out of the house. My husband drives me crazy.
Charlotte Sterling: Okay. Thank you for your interest.
Marie: Before you make any final decisions, why don't you taste this lasagna?
Charlotte Sterling: Right now?
Marie: Oh, please, dear. You're so thin.

Ray: All right, uh, we got milk, ginger ale and something pink.
Robert: Pink, please. [off Raymond's nervousness] What?

Marie: [enters] Hello, dear!
Robert: You gotta teach me how you do that?
