Is It College Yet?
2002 (TV)
Daria Morgendorffer: What are you saying? That I got into Raft because they *didn't* meet me? Screw you!
Lindy: Quinn, the night is so young. I think I'm gonna hit a couple of clubs after all. See you tomorrow.
Angela Li: Thank you Jodie Landon, valedictorian of the graduating class of Lawndale High. And remember parents, your child doesn't need to be a current student for us to accept your generous donations.
(Daria accepts an academic award at graduation) Daria Morgendorffer: Um, thank you. I'm not much for public speaking. Or much for speaking. Or, come to think of it, much for the public. And I'm not very good at lying. So let me just say that, in my experience, high school sucks. If I had to do it all over again, I'd have started advanced placement classes in preschool so I could go from eighth grade straight to college. However, given the unalterable fact that high school sucks, I'd like to add that if you're lucky enough to have a good friend and a family that cares it doesn't have to suck quite as much. Otherwise my advice is; Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless experience proves you wrong. Remember, when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is* naked. The truth and a lie are not sort of the same thing. And there is no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza. Thank you.
Jane Lane: What about you? Still thinking about (in snooty voice) Jane Lane: Bromwell? Daria Morgendorffer: They don't really talk like that... I hope. Anyway, I'm applying because it's an outstanding university, not because the students engage in the rectal transport of steel rods. Jane Lane: The Equestrian Club must be in constant pain.
Jane Lane: You're getting soft around the edges, Morgendorffer. Daria Morgendorffer: Maybe, or maybe you've got glaucoma.
(On Jane's plans to go to an art college after graduation) Trent Lane: I don't really think you're a sell-out. Jane Lane: Well, that's not exactly an apology, but you know what they say about beggars. Trent Lane: That they'll only spend it on booze? Jane Lane: Never mind.
Andrew Landon: You call that a tax cut? I've seen haircuts more drastic.
Jane Lane: Behold, Daria. The group dynamic you crave so much. Daria Morgendorffer: I suppose pulling out a can of mace right now would be considered bad form.
Trent Lane: Um, why do you want to go to art college? You're already an artist. Jane Lane: I know, but I want to be a starving artist so I need to ring up more debt.
