Ally McBeal

Ling: Where is she? I'm very uncomfortable around new people. Richard: She'll be here. Tell me, Ling, when you resort to these sexual harassment lawsuits, do you worry about coming on, say... weak, vindictive, powerless, little ant who needs the special help? It runs so contrary to your personality which seems... vicious. (Ling just looks at him) I'm just making conversation until... Nelle gets here. Ling: If you only knew the things that are said about me. Richard: I bet I could guess.

Ally: Don't you think by suing him that we're giving him exactly what he wants, I mean, this guy loves the publicity! Nelle: Even so, we're doing what Ling wants. Ally: Come on Nelle, we're not gonna win this! Nelle: Don't be so sure. Ally: Oh, oh... Nelle, what... what is a spinner ? Nelle: I think it means... perky personality.

Harold: Oh that's right, you're Nelle. I like that, Nelle, sounds good and naughty... And you're Ling, and... (looking at Ally) Who's the spinner? Ally: Hey! Walden: Harold! Nelle: Do you think this is a game? Harold: Of course it's a game! Just because you're this hot little foreign number and you hired these two little nubile lawyers you think I'm gonna pop a chubby and give you my money? Well, OK. What are you, Chinese? Nelle: Mr. Wick ! Walden (at the same time): Harold! Harold: Lucky I took some Viagra with the Ibuprofen! Ling: You're the more violent person... Nelle: Ling! Harold: Ma'am, I'm sure you're a nice person... Nelle: You're not going to intimidate us, Mr. Wick. Harold: (to Nelle) Don't think that I don't know that! I can't even look at you without seeing a whip! (to Ally) And you, I can't get a beat on. I just know that I'd like to take you home and make you my nasty little whore.

Elaine (To Harold): May I just say, on your show, you talk about women as if they're all cheap. You see, my entire life, I've been cheap, and it wasn't until I listened to your show that I realized I wasn't alone in the world.

Georgia: We're... We're suing a radio personality for contributing to sexual harassment at a steel plant? Nelle: Exactly.

John: Did you tell Nelle Porter I was drawn to her? Richard: Yes. Sorry. Bygones. John: Unacceptable! What I tell you I have an expectation of privacy! Richard: John, which is why I'm apologizing. Bygones squared.

Ally (About Nelle): It's official. I hate her.

Ally: Men are always trying to mentally undress me. I'm just trying to save them some time, that's all.

John: (to Ally) I'm afraid if I tell you, I would win back the reputation as strangest one in the room.
