Marcus Quote #320
Quote from Marcus in Lady Boss
Marcus: Whoa, man. Did you take all those girly power shirts down?
Jonah: Oh, yeah. I-it was problematic.
Marcus: Yeah, I know. Yeah, so much for "nothing's gonna change," huh? That new girl CEO isn't wasting much time.
Jonah: I... I don't think there's a connection. These... These had to be ordered way before the acquisition.
Marcus: Oh, yeah. Hey, could you direct me to the shirts that say "boy boss"?
Jonah: Would you want that shirt?
Marcus: Yeah, zip that baby up underneath the coveralls and feel secretly powerful all day? My point is, a lot of guys around here feel the same way we do about this stuff.
Jonah: We... We don't feel the same about anything, really.
Marcus: Hey, you don't have to be ashamed.
Jonah: I'm not.
Marcus: You're fighting the good fight.
Jonah: Nope, different fight. Better fight.
Marcus: Same team.

Quote from Amy
Jonah: It wasn't why I was doing it, but I really tapped into something here. These guys are really freaked out about the acquisition.
Amy: Yeah, everybody's freaked out. It's a freaky time. Just tell 'em to take it down and get back to work.
Jonah: Ah, but that'd kinda just be like a Band-Aid, wouldn't it?
Amy: Yeah, Band-Aids heal things. Why does everybody hate Band-Aids?
Quote from Dina
Dina: Ah, it's great. T-shirt activism. Anytime we cash in on a cause, it always means cha-ching, cha-ching. That's a cash register.
Jonah: Yeah, maybe it's a little calculated, but it's... It's promoting gender equality. That's... That's a good thing.
Dina: Well, let's take a look. Yup, $12.99. The similar style in the men's department: $7.99.
Jonah: Well, the... glitter's probably pretty expensive.
Dina: Oh, wake up, Jonah, this is the pink tax in action. Women have to pay more for clothes, razors, deodorant... I mean, that's why I use dog shampoo. 'Cause I know the truth. But I mean, this is great. We're gonna sell a ton of these. You should be very proud of yourself.
Quote from Glenn
Glenn: Okay, I've heard what you all are saying, um, but as a father of a daughter...
Garrett: Listen up, ladies, father of a daughter talking.
Glenn: Thank you. Of course I want the world to be better for Rose, but I want it to stay the same for me. Is that too much to ask?
Earl: That's all I want.
Dina: Yes, that's the problem.
