Quotes

Sue: Latest from Treasury is housing starts are down and unemployment's up.
Selina: Any chance we can switch those?
Sue: I'll turn the graphs upside down.

Selina: I've got to call all of these Congress people. Whip the vote. You understand that. Mommy's got to whip. Whip it good.

Jonah: You see the picture of Grover Cleveland? Is that a tear in his eye because he knows the rules aren't being respected?

Dan: You know, Jonah, I hope you die a horrible death choking on a red, glistening dog dick. Have a lovely Thanksgiving, Mrs. Ryan.

Selina: My eyelids are seriously starting to look like Keith Richards' ball sack.
Gary: Oh, please. He wishes.

Selina: ...and I'll look 10 years younger!
Gary: That would make you a baby.

Mike: I hate to admit it, but sometimes I'm scared of Wendy.
Ben: She still has a great rack, though.

Gary: She just had 10 years taken off her eyes.
Selina: Yes.
Ben: Well, I don't think they left yet.

Selina: What are you asking him for? (referring to Gary) He's not a doctor. I mean, he doesn't have any academic qualifications to speak of.
Gary: Well, I have a bachelor's degree in hotel management from Cornell University.
Selina: No, you don't.

Gary: (touches Selina's hand) It's okay. It's okay.
Selina: (scolding) Please don't keep touching me every day.

Ben: She's not not incapacitated. She's just not fully capacitated.

Mike: Hey, do you guys know a luxurious but super cheap hotel?
Ben: Yeah, in the Philippines.

Tom: Any news on Sherman?
Dan: CNN and Fox both say he's critical, but Fox says it with blonder hair and bigger tits.

Doyle: Seriously, I know he says he loves you, but if you don't press charges, he's gonna kill you someday.
Selina: I love it. Domestic abuse jokes. They just tickle me.

Dan: Look, I've got to run something by you.
Amy: I fully support your decision to live as an ugly woman.

Jeff: (Speaking to Kent) Excuse me? You don't give me names, Beardo. I give you names. So take your list, roll it up real tiny, attach it to the leg of a carrier pigeon, and have it fly up tubby's dick. (Referring to Ben)

Jonah: Ain't a challenge been invented Jonah Ryan can't do.
Richard: Ice bucket challenge. You backed out of that.
Jonah: Ice bucket challenge can suck my dick.
Richard: Well, it did raise a lot of awareness for whatever ALS is.

Selina: Somewhere in the world there's a woman exactly my age getting her *ussy eaten and I'm stuck here watching this.
