Quotes from Homecoming

Dawson: "Nervous anticipation doesn't cause spontaneous combustion."

Eve: "Good morning, Dawson. Welcome to school."

Grams: "After a year with Jennifer, having Jack was like boarding St. Francis."

Dawson: "This is worse than breakfast cereals."

Jen to Dawson: "On the list of things I expected to find in your bag, condoms fall somewhere between nuclear plant and crack cocaine."

Jen: "Let's say that you have an ice-cream sundae right in front of you, but no spoon. Now, it's a hundred degrees out, and you're starving. Do you lick the ice cream or do you bite right in?"

Dawson: "Bite right in."
Jen: "Too fast. See, first you need to admire the sundae... watch the sundae. And then just before it's about to drip, you gently let your lips lick around the exterior, savoring every inch. You wanna make that sundae last a long time. But not too long, because otherwise it ends up all over the table instead of in your mouth. But, Dawson, if you remember one thing, let it be this: if you don't get the whipped cream all over your face, you're not doing it right. You see what I'm saying?"

Andie: "Jen's a cheerleader and Jack's on the football team? Okay, I got sane and everybody else went crazy?"

Dawson: "They say that girls like you don't exist."
Eve: "They lie."

Dawson: "The first time I sleep with somebody I don't want it to be for just any reason. I want it to be for every reason."

Joey: "We talk like we know what's going on, but we don't. We don't have any idea. Look, we're really young and we're going to screw up a lot. We're going to keep changing our minds, and sometimes even our hearts. And through all that, the only real thing we can offer each other is forgiveness. And I couldn't do that. At least, I did it too late. Don't let yourself get so angry that you stop loving because one day you'll wake up from that anger and the person you love will be gone."

Pacey: "I can never go back to loving you the way I did knowing that my love wasn't strong enough the first time around."

Joey: "So we're friends, and then we're a couple, friends again, and a couple.... So what are we now?"
Dawson: "We're Dawson and Joey."
Joey: "Do you think every Joey has a Dawson and every Dawson has a Joey?"
Dawson: "I hope so. For their sake."
