Quotes 

• Carrie : The most important thing in life is your family. There are days you love them, and others you don't. But, in the end, they're the people you always come home to. Sometimes it's the family you're born into and sometimes it's the one you make for yourself.

• Carrie : Your girl is lovely Hubbell.

  Mr. Big : I don't get it.

  Carrie : And you never did.

• Carrie : I revealed too much too soon. I was emotionally slutty.

• Carrie : The universe may not always play fair, but at least it's got a hell of a sense of humor.

• Carrie : Have you ever been in love?

  Mr. Big : Abso-fucking-lutely

• Charlotte : How can you forget a guy you've slept with?

  Carrie : Toto, I don't think we're in single digits anymore.

• Samantha : I remember when Danny had more than one thought, and they all involved going up my ass.

  Charlotte : You had sex with Danny?

  Samantha : Sure, he's cute, straight and we've known him for ten years. Haven't we all had sex with Danny?

  Carrie : Oh yeah, that one weekend I was bored.

  Charlotte : Just a New Year's Eve kiss.

  Miranda : I showed him a boob in a coat checkroom.

  Carrie : Just one?

• Carrie : I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.

• Miranda : What's the big mystery? It's my clitoris, not the sphinx.

  Carrie : I think you just found the title of your autobiography.

• Charlotte : Is it so much to ask that you not wear your dress up around your see-you-next-Tuesday?

  Samantha : My what?

  Charlotte : See... you... next

  Carrie : Tuesday? Oh my god, was that a Schoolhouse Rock I missed?

• Carrie : Here, swear. Swear on Chanel.

• Carrie : Balls are to men what purses are to women. It's just a little bag, but we'd feel naked in public without it.

• Samantha : I once dated a guy 'cause he had a pool. I'd go over and get all cocoa-buttered up. His mom brought my Kool-Aid

  Carrie : Kool-Aid?

  Samantha : Yeah, I was thirteen! And honey, you should have seen my tan!

• Carrie : It's a slippery slope. First you're going once a week, and then it's three times a week, and then the next thing you know, you're starting every sentence with, "My shrink says".

  Miranda : My shrink says thats a very common fear.

• Carrie : So what are we going to do? Sit around bars, sipping Cosmos and sleeping with strangers when we're eighty?

• Miranda : After years of odd men, God is throwing me a bone.

  Carrie : And possibly a boner as well.

• Miranda : I'm gonna ask you an unpleasant question now- why did you ever say yes?

  Carrie : The man you love kneels down in the street and offers you a ring, you say yes that's what you do.

• Carrie : My Zen teacher also said the only way to true happiness is to live in the moment and not be worried about the future.

• Miranda : I didn't tell Walker I was pregnant.

  Carrie : Miranda!

  Miranda : It didn't come up! If Walker had said to me, "Have you given birth recently?", I would have said, "Well, first of all, define recently."

• Carrie : [repeated line while narrating her column]  I couldn't help but wonder...

• Carrie : It's the end of an era.

• Samantha : You get married and hope for the best. If it doesn't work out you'll get divorced. You can take tap with Bojangles over here.

  Carrie : No I can't take a vow of for ever and ever if what I mean is for the forseeable future. I couldn't do that to Aiden.
