Mrs. Auld: I'm going to steal this bag from you someday, Maia. Me: Wha? Mrs. Auld: Seriously. I am. Me: But then I'd have to tell my other teachers that I don't have my homework because you stole my backpack. Mrs. Auld: And then they'll say, "Oh yeah, we haven't heard that one before! Actually... we haven't."

Santos: I know you like to use that word 'liberal' as if it were a crime. Vinick: No. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have used that word. I know Democrats think 'liberal' is a bad word. So bad you had to change it. What do you call yourselves now, progressives? Is that it? Santos: It's true. Republicans have tried to turn 'liberal' into a bad word. Well, liberals ended slavery in this country. Vinick: A Republican President ended slavery.
Santos: Yes, a liberal Republican; what happened to them, Senator? They got run out of your party! What did liberals do that was so offensive to the Republican Party? I'll tell you what they did. Liberals got women the right to vote. Liberals got African-Americans the right to vote. Liberals created Social Security and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Liberals ended segregation. Liberals passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act. Liberals created Medicare. Liberals passed the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act. What did Conservatives do? They opposed them on every one of those things, every one. So when you try to hurl that label at my feet, 'Liberal,' as if it were something to be ashamed of, something dirty, something to run away from, it won't work, Senator, because I will pick up that label and I will wear it as a badge of honor.
*glances around nervously and hopes no one much cares about politics* No offense intended to anyone. Just a quote I happen to really, really like.

Coach Cotton: Was he holding? Official: No. Coach Cotton: Was he blocking after the whistle? Official: No. Coach Cotton: Then what was the flag for? Official: I don't know. Excessive blocking

[Playing White House staff basketball; President Bartlet has just called in a professional basketball player as his substitute]
Toby (Communications Director): It's not so much that you cheat sir, its how brazenly bad you are at it. President Bartlet: Give me an example. Toby: In Florida, playing mixed doubles with me and C.J., you tried to tell us your partner worked at the American Consulate in Vienna. President Bartlet: She did. Toby: It was Steffi Graf, sir! President Bartlet: I'll admit the woman bore a striking resemblance to her. Toby: You crazy lunatic, you think I'm not going to recognize Steffi Graf when she's serving a tennis ball at me?!
Love how Toby shouts at the President. XD

Owen: I've always dreamed of being an olympian! Standing upon that podium, tall and proud, saying, "It's an honour to win for the mother country! Bringing back another silver for Canada!"

President Bartlet: I don't need a flu shot. Military Dr. Morris: You do need a flu shot. President Bartlet: How do I know this isn't the start of a military coup? Morris: Sir? President Bartlet: I want the Secret Service in here right away! Morris: In the event of a military coup, sir, what makes you think the Secret Service is gonna be on your side? President Bartlet: Now that's a thought that's gonna fester...

"He was spitting out a tooth when I first saw him. His sandy blonde hair was disheveled and dirty, his eyes sunken and hollow, his skin almost a grey colour underneath the cuts and bruises and blood. His tooth fell into his dirty, grubby hands; a yellowish thing covered in thick, red, blood. My skin crawled just looking at him."

Sam (White House Deputy Communications Director): The U.S. is one of five countries on earth that puts to death people who're under the age of 18 when they committed a crime.
Charlie (Personal Aide to the President): Nigeria.
Sam: Pakistan.
Charlie: Saudi Arabia and Iran?
Sam: Yeah. So, that's a list we definitely want to be on.
No. No way in hell is it a list one would to be on. X3 Crazy Pakis and Arabs...

Matt: You feeling okay? *worried* Me: *groans* Matt: LOOK A STARGATE! *point behind me* Me: *groans* Matt: *raises hand* Mr. Bynum, I think Stephanie is dying, she didn't respond to her sacred phrase...
A real conversation in math... I was very sick... I refused to go home though. Matt and Garren ended up having to drag/carry me to the office so I would go home. xD (I had too much work to do, I had to stay at school and lead my group.)

(Saphire, if you'd collapsed in class, I swear I'd have driven out there just to stand there and glare at you for an hour straight. XD Not that it would do any good, but that is what Fee does after she panics... XD)
Donna: An eighth-grade social studies textbook? Josh: Turn to the page I flagged. Donna: The Lend-Lease Act. Josh: Yeah. Simply put, a loan of arms to Russia and Britain with the understanding that they pay us back when the war was over. And he [President Franklin Roosevelt] said this - he said, "If your neighbor's house is on fire, you don't haggle over the price of your garden hose." ... There are too many things in the world we can't do. Mexico's on fire. Why help them? Because we can.
I love Josh. X3 He's so... human, for a character.

Emanuel: Yeah, Afghanistan was part of the USSR. Me: *stares at* No... no it wasn't. Emanuel: No, it was! Me: It really wasn't. That's how we got the Taliban. The US pumped money into Afghanistan and trained people there so that they could fight back against the USSR because we hate communists. Emanuel: Well I know that one of the "stan" countries was part of the USSR! And if it wasn't Afghanistan, then I think it was Uzbekistan. Me: No. That wouldn't make sense. Uzbekistan doesn't even share a border with Russia. It was probably Kazakhstan. They share a border with Russia.
Pfffft, and Emanuel claims that Russia is his favourite country ever. If it is, learn their damn history, man!
