Ricky Schroth: You live here, at a hotel? Harriet Frankovitz: My mom got it as a divorce present.
2
Ricky: I'm not supposed to kiss girls or touch myself.
3
Harriet Frankovitz: My sister Gwen should have been a nurse, she's always making some guy feel better!
4
Harriet: I think Gwen was mostly upset that I'd gotten married before her, seeing as how I was so much younger.
5
Harriet: Prince Ricky, I grant you three wishes. Ricky: I don't want to do that. Harriet: Come on! Ricky: Okay. I want to stay here. Harriet: That's one, you've got two more! Ricky: Umm... I want my mom to live forever! Harriet: That's two. One more. Ricky: I want a hundred more wishes! Harriet: You can't do that you only have three! Ricky: I want to be as smart as everybody else... just for a day.
6
Ricky: I'm gonna stay the same... You like me now but, you won't like me later. You're gonna grow up... I'm not.
7
Harriet: Gwen? Gwen: Down here... Harriet: You're supposed to wait with me till the sandman comes. Gwen: Okay... Am I supposed to tell you a story? Harriet: Sometimes, but mostly we just talk about stuff. Gwen: Okay. Do I pick the subject or do you? Harriet: Either... Turn out the light? Gwen: Okay... ready?
8
Harriet: My mother lived in one world. I was always looking for another.
9
Harriet: I always wished for the same two things which were really only one thing. I wanted something magical to happen to me, and I wanted my mother to get well.
10
Harriet: My mother says I was born with an angel on my shoulder. This is supposed to bring me luck and happiness. I think she lied.
11
Harriet: Sometimes I thought my mother was smart and really beautiful. Other times I worried a nest of spiders was living in her hair and they were eating through her skull and chewing on her brain.
12
Ricky: My mother says before I was born I was the same as everybody else, better even. My mom says I'm from a place where I'm the smartest person there, everybody sings. Harriet: Maybe the home will be like that and it'll look like castle and have a moat around it and have gardens and bushes shaped like animals. Ricky: I don't want to go to a home.
13
Harriet: Mom, is there a planet where everyone's dumber than us? Mrs. Frankovitz: Yeah, it's the one all of Gwen's boyfriends are from.
14
Harriet: I always figured I'd leave my mother. But she left me first.
15
Ricky: We're one big sad monster. Four legs, four arms, two heads, two noses.
16
Gwen: You want to sleep in my room with me tonight? Harriet: No! Gwen: Don't be mad at me about mom, it's not my fault. Don't think it's your fault either. Harriet: I'm glad she's dead! Gwen: You don't mean that. Harriet: I won't miss her at all. Gwen: Harriet you loved her. She loved you too, very much. Sometimes, just... things just happen sometimes... Look; you don't have to worry about being an orphan or anything. You've got me. Harriet: The booby prize. Gwen: I'm trying to tell you something here, Harriet... So... I'm going to be your mother now. What do you think about that? Harriet: I don't need a mother. Gwen: Sure you do. Harriet: My mother is in a box covered with dirt. Gwen: No, I'm your mother... I had you when I was fifteen. I was letting Mom be your mother. Harriet: You're lying. Gwen: No... Sorry. I'm not. Harriet: Go away Gwen, I wish you'd died!
17
Gwen: I'm not mad at you, okay? But I want you to promise me something... Harriet: What? Gwen: Promise me you won't hang around Ricky anymore. Harriet: But Ricky is my best friend. Gwen: He can't be Harriet. He's a man, he's a grown-up, he's a... retarded. If you hang around him long enough you'll start talking like him or walking like him or maybe even acting like him. Harriet: Well, at least it would be better than talking and walking and acting like you.
