Schmidt Quote #814

Quote from Schmidt in Goldmine

Coach: What is he...? What are you doing, man?
Schmidt: [holding two small, mandarin oranges] Is this...? Is this the fut... the future? I can hold them both in one hand.
Coach: Yeah, man.
Schmidt: [sighs] No, no, there it is. Look at that. Stage four-- depression. My two best friends are going away. Going away far too soon. And if you were lucky enough to meet them, to touch them, to be touched by them, you came away a better person. If you'll excuse me.

Nick: When I came out, was it flashy? Was it emotional? Am I mad that Anderson Cooper doesn't fly the flag? Or for what he's doing in his own way-- is it even braver?
Jess: These are all really good questions, but I just can't get my mind off, like, why you dress this way. Why aren't you in better shape?
Nick: Don't put me in a box! There's nothing we gay men hate more than being put in a box.
Jess: Good.
Nick: Look, maybe I'm a bear, maybe I'm a twinkler.
Jess: That's not a category.
Nick: [loudly] I like rugby for the game and for the men. Now, if you excuse me, I got to go do that gay thing I was telling you about, because, of course, I'm gay as hell. [Jess laughs] Bye.

Nick: [whispers] I am shattering stereotypes.

Nick: [chuckles] I just don't know them like you know them, is my point.
Ian: Uh-huh. Uh, so, what kind of guys do you like to date?
Nick: Me? All kinds. Yeah. Hunks. If I can get my, uh, paws on a hunk, I don't let go. Uh, ripped nerds. 'Cause they're smart but strong, I guess.

Nick: I like Spanish guys. Throw in a little, uh, hint of German in there, there's a perfect combo.

Ian: Why would you like a sleepy guy?

Quote from Schmidt

Schmidt: All right, let me see the new. I accept it.
Cece: Again, it was just a consultation. And actually, I don't even know if I'm gonna go through with it.
