Hilary Quote #91

Quote from Hilary in Working It Out

Marissa Redman: Now, look, I have to go to a restaurant opening tonight. So I need you to pick up my clothes from the cleaners. Oh, and I'm not speaking to my tired boyfriend, so I'll need someone to go with. I wonder if that cute little Johnny Gill is free.
Hilary: Isn't he, like, my age?
Marissa Redman: Oh, I see. I get it. First, I'm too Black to play Meryl Streep's parts and now I'm too old to date a 20-year-old. Cher can do it, but I can't?
Hilary: No, Marissa, I didn't mean anything like that.
Marissa Redman: Everyone's trying to fit me into their nice, neat little box, aren't they? Well, you're walking a fine line, Helena. A very fine line.

 ‘Working It Out’ Quotes

Quote from Hilary

Vivian: Hilary, you were doing so well at the art gallery.
Hilary: Yeah, but, Mom, it's not really a cool job. I mean, when I was a little girl, I always had this dream that when I grew up, I'd have a glamorous job in a glamorous office. And I'd go to parties and people would ask what I did and I'd tell them. And then I'd imagine them turning pea-green with envy and blurting out: "You are so lucky," and walking away eaten up inside because I had a fabulous job and they didn't.
Carlton: They say Gandhi had a very similar childhood dream.
