When Harry met sally

  • you're going to have to try and find a way of not expressing every feeling that you have, every moment that you have them.
  • I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
  • Jess: Emily is terrific.
    Harry Burns: Yeah. But of course when I asked where she was when Kennedy was shot she said, "Ted Kennedy was shot?"
  • Sally Albright: Well, if you must know, it was because he was very jealous, and I had these days of the week underpants.
    Harry Burns: Ehhhh. I'm sorry. I need the judges ruling on this. "Days of the weeks underpants"?
    Sally Albright: Yes. They had the days of the week on them, and I thought they were sort of funny. And then one day Sheldon says to me, "You never wear Sunday." It was all suspicious. Where was Sunday? Where had I left Sunday? And I told him, and he didn't believe me.
    Harry Burns: What?
    Sally Albright: They don't make Sunday.
    Harry Burns: Why not?
    Sally Albright: Because of God.
  • Harry Burns: Right now everything is great, everyone is happy, everyone is in love and that is wonderful. But you gotta know that sooner or later you're gonna be screaming at each other about who's gonna get this dish. This eight dollar dish will cost you a thousand dollars in phone calls to the legal firm of That's Mine, This Is Yours.
    Marie: Harry.
    Harry Burns: Please, Jess, Marie. Do me a favor, for your own good, put your name in your books right now before they get mixed up and you won't know whose is whose. 'Cause someday, believe it or not, you'll go 15 rounds over who's gonna get this coffee table. This stupid, wagon wheel, Roy Rogers, garage sale COFFEE TABLE.
  • You know, I have a theory that hieroglyphics are just an ancient comic strip about a character named Sphinxy.
  • Harry Burns: You realize of course that we could never be friends.
    Sally Albright: Why not?
    Harry Burns: What I'm saying is - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape or form - is that men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way.
    Sally Albright: That's not true. I have a number of men friends and there is no sex involved.
    Harry Burns: No you don't.
    Sally Albright: Yes I do.
    Harry Burns: No you don't.
    Sally Albright: Yes I do.
    Harry Burns: You only think you do.
    Sally Albright: You say I'm having sex with these men without my knowledge?
    Harry Burns: No, what I'm saying is they all WANT to have sex with you.
    Sally Albright: They do not.
    Harry Burns: Do too.
    Sally Albright: They do not.
    Harry Burns: Do too.
    Sally Albright: How do you know?
    Harry Burns: Because no man can be friends with a woman that he finds attractive. He always wants to have sex with her.
    Sally Albright: So, you're saying that a man can be friends with a woman he finds unattractive?
    Harry Burns: No. You pretty much want to nail 'em too.
    Sally Albright: What if THEY don't want to have sex with YOU?
    Harry Burns: Doesn't matter because the sex thing is already out there so the friendship is ultimately doomed and that is the end of the story.
    Sally Albright: Well, I guess we're not going to be friends then.
    Harry Burns: I guess not.
    Sally Albright: That's too bad. You were the only person I knew in New York.
  • Harry Burns: You take someone to the airport, its clearly the beginning of the relationship. That's why I have never taken anyone to the airport at the beginning of a relationship.
    Sally Albright: Why?
    Harry Burns: Because eventually things move on and you don't take someone to the airport and I never wanted anyone to say to me, How come you never take me to the airport anymore?
  • Harry Burns: Would you like to have dinner?... Just friends.
    Sally Albright: I thought you didn't believe men and women could be friends.
    Harry Burns: When did I say that?
    Sally Albright: On the ride to New York.
    Harry Burns: No, no, no, I never said that... Yes, that's right, they can't be friends. Unless both of them are involved with other people, then they can... This is an amendment to the earlier rule. If the two people are in relationships, the pressure of possible involvement is lifted... That doesn't work either, because what happens then is, the person you're involved with can't understand why you need to be friends with the person you're just friends with. Like it means something is missing from the relationship and why do you have to go outside to get it? And when you say "No, no, no it's not true, nothing is missing from the relationship," the person you're involved with then accuses you of being secretly attracted to the person you're just friends with, which you probably are. I mean, come on, who the hell are we kidding, let's face it. Which brings us back to the earlier rule before the amendment, which is men and women can't be friends.
  • Harry Burns: There are two kinds of women: high maintenance and low maintenance.
    Sally Albright: Which one am I?
    Harry Burns: You're the worst kind. You're high maintenance but you think you're low maintenance.
  • [Harry and Sally discussing orgasms]
    Sally Albright: Most women at one time or another have faked it.
    Harry Burns: Well, they haven't faked it with me.
    Sally Albright: How do you know?
    Harry Burns: Because I know.
    Sally Albright: Oh. Right. Thats right. I forgot. Youre a man.
    Harry Burns: What was that supposed to mean?
    Sally Albright: Nothing. Its just that all men are sure it never happened to them and all women at one time or other have done it so you do the math.
  • Jess: Marriages don't break up on account of infidelity. It's just a symptom that something else is wrong.
    Harry Burns: Oh really? Well, that "symptom" is fucking my wife.
  • The fact that you're not answering leads me to believe that (a) You're not home, (b) You're home but you don't want to talk to me, or (c) You're home, desperately want to talk to me, but you're trapped under something heavy. If it's either (a) or (c), please give me a call.
  • Harry Burns: How long do you like to be held after sex? All night, right? See, that's your problem. Somewhere between 30 seconds and all night is your problem.
    Sally Albright: I don't have a problem.
    Harry Burns: Yes, you do.
  • Sally Albright: Well, basically it's the same dream I've been having since I was twelve.
    Harry Burns: Which is?
    Sally Albright: Okay, there's this guy...
    Harry Burns: What does he look like?
    Sally Albright: I don't know, he's just sort of faceless.
    Harry Burns: Faceless guy, okay.
    Sally Albright: He RIPS off my clothes.
    [pause]
    Harry Burns: And?
    Sally Albright: That's it.
    Harry Burns: That's it? Some faceless guy rips off all your clothes, and THAT'S the sex fantasy you've been having since you were twelve?
    Sally Albright: Well sometimes I vary it a little.
    Harry Burns: Which part?
    Sally Albright: What I'm wearing.
  • Everybody thinks they have good taste and a sense of humor but they couldn't possibly all have good taste.
  • Marie: Restaurants are to people in the 80's what theatres were to people in the 60's. I read it in a magazine.
    Jess: I wrote that.
    Marie: Get out of here.
    Jess: I did.
    Marie: Where did I read that?
    Jess: New York magazine
    Harry: Sally writes for New York magazine
  • [Unable to guess what Sally is trying to draw during a round of Pictionary]
    Jess: Draw SOMETHING resembling ANYTHING.

In between I watched 'Lakshya', 'superman I, II'. I missed my CEP class yesterday. And the day before I talked with my old friend 'Nin'...and then I found that we are still friends...atleast she was pretending to be.
