Ally McBeal

Sandra: See the star witness over there? Doctor, community-minded, sits on the school committee, coaches boys' soccer. He's noble. He also comes to me with his VISA card twice a month to earn frequent flyer miles. John: Well, one might say you-- you entrapped him with your feminine wiles. Sandra: One might. But I didn't slither up to him wearing perfume. He found me... in the yellow pages.

Renée: Do we ever meet interesting, single men? Ally: Well, that's because we're lawyers. And-- and all we meet are single male attorneys. And that is a pathetic breed!

Ally: We make so few promises to ourselves as we grow up. And one of them is that on our wedding day, we walk down the aisle with somebody we love. Somebody who does... make your heart bounce, I guess. And there are some promises, Harry, that I think we just have to keep.

Ally: Angela-- Angela, I am the last person who should be giving advice of the heart to anybody. I mean, look at me. I am a strong working career girl who-- who feels empty without a man. The National Organization for Women-- they have a contract out on my head.

Angela: Sometimes, when you hold out for everything... you walk away with nothing.
