Quotes

Phillip : I never strangled a chicken in my life!

Brandon : Determined to get drunk, aren't you?
Phillip : I am drunk.
Brandon : And just as childish as you were before when you called me a liar.
Phillip : You had no business telling that story.
Brandon : Why did you lie anyway?
Phillip : I had to! Have you ever bothered for just one minute to understand how someone else might feel?
Brandon : I'm not sentimental if that's what you...
Phillip : No, that's not what I mean; but it doesn't matter. Nothing matters... except that Mr. Brandon liked the party. Mr. Brandon gave the party. Mr. Brandon had a delightful evening. Well, I had a rotten evening!
Brandon : Keep drinking, and you'll have a worse morning.
Phillip : At least if I have a hangover, it'll be all mine!

Brandon : But why should I want to come back?
Phillip : Yes, why?
Brandon : For the pleasure of our company, or another drink?

Phillip : Painting the picture and not hanging it?
Brandon : That's not a good choice of words.
Phillip : It may end up too choice, thanks to the party.
-
Phillip : You frighten me. You always have, from that very first day in prep school. Part of your charm, I suppose.
-
Rupert Cadell : What is going on here?
Phillip : A party.
Rupert Cadell : Yes, but a rather peculiar party. What's it all about, Phillip?
Phillip : What's what all about? Stop playing Crime and Punishment, Rupert.

Phillip : Prying? Snooping? Or just plain pumping?
