[Elena confronts Felicity about her affair with Noel]
Elena: Don't try to deny it. You just went whiter then usual.

Meghan: You and the R.A! You just went up, like, a notch.

Felicity: Julie, I'm really sorry that you heard that. I should have come to you, and told you something up front.
Julie Emrick: That would have been hard. I mean, how do you tell somebody you're trying to steal their boyfriend?
Felicity: That's not what I was doing.
Julie Emrick: God, I feel so stupid when I was asking you, if you thought there was another woman. I had no idea I was talking to her.
Felicity: Julie...
Julie Emrick: He's a good kisser, isn't he?
Felicity: I did not plan this. Julie. I am so sorry.
Julie Emrick: You know, I really don't care what the hell you are. You can be sorry or not, it doesn't matter to me. You're just a lying bitch.

Felicity: So, basically I've given up everything my parents ever planned for me, everything I ever expected...all for a boy I don't even know.

Felicity (talking to Ben): The truth is I can't be with you like this. I mean, I know I said that I could, but I can't. I just can't compromise myself like that. I mean I'm an emotional person. I feel things and I need to be able to get upset and talk about how I'm feeling. I mean that's just...that's who I am and I can't change it. I don't want to. And the thing is you know that, you knew it and you still pursued me because you want something with me, you just aren't strong enough to have it which...in a way makes you a coward. And the saddest part is that...one day you're gonna wake up and you're gonna realize what you missed and it's gonna be too late.

Sally: Listening to your tape, I was reminded of this poem. It has the central question: Is it harder to count on someone or to know that you're being the one counted upon? Anyway, there's this part that goes: "if equal affection cannot be, then let the more loving one be me." Have you ever read that one? It's one of my favorites.

Felicity: Anyway, in my closet, I found this thing on my wall. It's a list of all the people who lived in this room before me -- it went back to 1968. Randall Clark... Melissa Stone... Keith Bradshaw... Patty Tagliabue... I mean these names, these people I never heard of... you know, I just started wondering. I wonder where they are today, you know? How much they remember of their freshman year? I wonder if they're all still alive.

Sally Reardon: The hardest part about moving forward is not looking back.

Sally Reardon: I guess when your heart gets broken, you sort of start to see the cracks in everything. I'm convinced that tragedy wants to harden us, and that our mission is to never let it.

Sally Reardon: I guess I'm learning, little by little, that we decide what our lives are going to be. Things happen to us, but it is our reactions that matter.

Felicity: God, I feel all grown up.
Julie Emrick: Me too.

Felicity: Sally, I would only say this to you, so after you listen to this tape, you have to erase it. But I can actually picture what it might be like to be with a man for the first time, sexually. If you're laughing at me right now, I don't blame you.

Sean Blumberg: Domestication is the enemy of romance.

Noel: And your hair's not so bad.
Felicity: Liar, you hate it.

Felicity: You know that stuff will kill you.
Noel: Something will. Might as well be cheese spray.

Ben Covington: Look, I... I understand why you rather see Felicity with someone like Noel. Someone who's obviously going to make it. And probably long before, I mean, I figure out what I'm going to be doing with my life. But I always remember this one thing a teacher said, which was, all the interesting people she knew they had no idea what they were going to do with their lives when they were 20. So chances are, I'm going to turn out to be a pretty interesting guy. Look, for some reason, Felicity cares about me. And on a good day, I feel like I might become everything she sees in me. It is because of that, it is because of about a million other reasons that she means pretty much the world to me.

Noel: [to Felicity] Don't hook up with Ben while I'm gone...

Dr. Toni Pavone: Ben, everybody has to figure out who they are eventually.

Sally:When your heart gets broken, you sort of see the cracks in everything.

Sally:I'm learning little by little that we decide what our lives are gonna be. Things happen to us. But it's our reactions that matter.

Sally:On one hand, expectations can inspire you, but then again, they can really let you down.

Sally:You can't know who that person is, the person who will become your ultimate confidant, your soul mate, or your lover.

Sally: If equal affection cannot be, let the more loving one be me.

Sally: Sometimes bad things just happen -- no reason, no purpose. They just occur and we're left to pick up the pieces the best we can.

Sally: I've become a real believer in not defining every single thing. Seems like everytime you think you've figured out what something is, it just becomes something else.

Sally: Our best decisions, the ones that we never regret, come from listening to ourselves.

Sally: Sometimes in a relationship, going through hell isn't so bad if you come out of it a little stronger. The same is true about friends.

Sally: Love is complicated -- full of sacrifice and compromise. But maybe that’s the best part.

Felicity: Relationships are hard.

Felicity: Do you know what I definitely believe in? Fate -- that things happen for a reason.

Felicity: Maybe getting over someone you’re in love with isn’t impossible. Unless, maybe you don’t actually get over it. Maybe you just learn to live with it.

Sally: The hardest part about moving forward is not looking back.

Ben (Scott Speedman): So, what's going on?
Felicity: Um, I just want to uh preface this by saying that uh I don't want you to feel weird about anything I'm about to say at all.
Ben: O.K.
Felicity: Uh, the thing is I came to New York um mostly because of you. (laughs) Yeah, I had these sort of um intense feelings for you back in high school and uh even though I know that we never really talked before graduation, except that one time when I was passing out flyers for the blood drive...
Ben: (shakes head in confusion)
Felicity: Anyway, maybe the fact that we never did talk was why I had those feelings because now, of course, I realize now that it was a crazy thing to do, to follow someone I don't know 3000 miles and I sort of panicked about it but I just wanted you to know that I'm past that and I'm...I'm totally okay with it now. I mean it. You know because it's not really about you so much anymore. I'm here now you know because...I'm here.

Felicity: So, um, what are you thinking.
Ben: I'm...honestly, honestly...I'm just, I'm just...I'm flattered by the whole thing. I'm flattered.
Felicity: Good! That's really a perfect, perfect answer.

Felicity (to Sally): I guess what I'm saying is this might all be a colossal mistake, as my dad would say, but on the other hand it may...maybe it'll save my life or something.
