Notable Quotes

Joey: You know, I have asked you six questions tonight and you haven't answered one.
Jack: Well that's because you have to ask me seven. See seven is the magic number.
Joey: There you go again. Why do you make light out of everything?
Jack: Because I am aloof, introverted, and unsociable so there, I answered one.
Jack: I don't believe in perfect love. But I do believe that there are people who's lives are inextricably intertwined.
Jen: Cute.
Jack: Gay.
Jen: Aren't we all?
Jack: Good teachers are just tramatized students trying to erase whatever went wrong with their own high school experience.
Jack: You know what the difference is between you and me, Doug? You were a fag at 15. You just haven't stopped hating yourself for it.
Jack : Excuse me, do you have a second, could you tell your sister I work here now, cause she's not letting me in the kitchen.
Jack : Actually, that exhibit was moved to The Met last week. However, I’m pretty sure I could get us reservations say 8:00, at William’s. You know Billy, that um, hot dog vendor guy down on Bailey’s Wharf.
Joey : Ha, you mean, like, a date?
Jack : No, no, of course not, it’s more like a dat.
Joey : Oh, a dat…
Jack : Yeah, you see, you take the "E" off of date and you have a dat.
Joey : Well, and um, what do people do on dats?
Jack : Well, there’s really no code of conduct, and etiquette is definitely possible. Just kinda make up our own rules, and um, the only requirement is that we have a great time.
Jack: "Wait, wait! Even better! We could have a "going into the closet" party and then everybody could come dressed up as their favorite straight person."
Dawson (drunk) : "I wish that my best friend Pacey would just end this transformation into do-gooder, A-student and all around sanctimonious teen angel and go back to what he does best which is make me feel good about my life because his is supposed to be worse. Then there's Jen Lindley with her drunkenness and her revolving boyfriend and her wild, wicked ways. I want to party with you!
There's Jack McPhee. Jack McPhee who likes guys but doesn't mind stealing my girlfriend. Tonight ladies and gentlemen starring in his own version of In and Out. He's in, he's out, he's in, he's out, he's in, he's out. In! Out! In! Out! Nice hair by the way."
Jack : "It is worse to be incapable of loving than to not be loved."
Jack:"So how does it feel to have a dream come true?"
Dawson: "How would I know? Do I look like I’m trapped in an elevator with Kate Hudson?"
Jen: "Are you embarrassed to be here?"
Jack: "On gay bowling night? Of course I’m embarrassed. But it’s not the gay part that’s embarrassing. It’s the bowling."
