Quotes

add »
Punky: Margaux says you have to win stuff to prove to your parents that you're somebody special.I wanted to give you a trophy tonight.
Henry: Punky, you are unbelievably special to me. And you've already given me something that is much bigger and better than a trophy, and it's made of pure gold.
Punky: What's that?
Henry: Your heart. (edit)
Margaux: I enter every contest I can. Well, at three months old, I was voted Best Dressed Baby. Then I won a golden booty for Most Terrific Toddler. Then I won for The Sweetest Smile. I can go on and on!
Punky: You already have. (edit)
Margaux: Well, no matter what your parents say, they want you to be a winner. A number one. You have to make them proud of you.
Punky: You mean, your parents wouldn't be proud of you if you were A number 4 or B number 6?
Margaux: If you don't produce, they just give up on you.
Punky: You mean, they forget all about you?
Margaux: Exactly. That's why I'm always proving myself in bigger and better ways. (edit)
Andy Gibb: Punky, what would you like to be when you grow up?
Punky: The President of the United States...or a waitress, I'm not sure which! But I do know this. Whatever you do you should be yourself. So that's what I'm gonna be when I grow up: me.
Andy Gibb: That's wonderful, Punky.
Punky: Great jacket, by the way! (edit)
Andy Gibb: Melinda, who is the most important person in your life?
Melinda: Guess I'd have to say...my mom and dad.
Andy Gibb: Well, now that two people. Let's try another question. Melinda, if you could change anything in your life, what would it be?
Melinda: I guess I'd have to say...my mom and dad! (edit)
