Center Stage

Eva: Careful with that one. You break it, you bought it. Jim: You seen my girlfriend, tall, thin, legs for days? Eva: Yeah. I pitched her overboard Eva Rodriguez: What, did you go to a special bitch academy or something? Eva Rodriguez: Being nice when you say something pricky is even prickier. Jody Sawyer: She's so good! Eva: Yeah, just ask her! Maureen Cummings: I am the best goddamn dancer in the American Ballet Academy! Who the hell are you? Nobody! [In pas de deux class] Sergei: I am your slave! Eva Rodriguez: I'd believe it if you didn't stare at your fucking reflection when you said it. Instructor: If someone wants to hear profanity, Miss Rodriguez, they can take a subway. They don't need to spend sixty dollars on a ballet ticket. [To Sergei] Though she has a point. Maureen Cummings: Erik got injured today. And do you know the first thing I thought when I saw him go down? Jim Gordon: What? Maureen Cummings: "I wish that was me." So that made me think, you know, 'cause that's not a normal reaction. How much of what you liked about me was because I was a ballet dancer, and how much because I was me? Eva Rodriguez: I screwed up any chance I had back in September. But I started dancing long before this stupid workshop, and I'm gonna keep on dancing long after it. So tomorrow is one more day I get to dance. Anna: Did you see how *on* I was tonight? Jody Sawyer: Mom! Oh, I'm so happy you guys are here! Mr. Sawyer: We wanted to see what you've been up to this past year. And I've gotta tell you, that was the most fantastic thing I've ever seen. Mrs. Sawyer: It was great, honey. And just -- just wonderful! Jody Sawyer: You wanna know something stupid? I'd actually started to believe I didn't need to hear that anymore. Eva Rodriguez: A girl's got a right to know what kind of hound she's saving herself for. Jody: Cooper, you're an amazing dancer, and you're a great choreographer, but as a boyfriend... you kinda suck. Jody: How come you're not seeing someone? Charlie: I see someone. She doesn't know I see her, but... I see her. Eva: You're not here by mistake. Someone at your audition watched you dance and saw something special. All you've gotta do is figure out how to find that again. ~ Home ~ Movies ~ Songs ~ Anonymous ~ Women ~ ~ Friendship ~ Life and Success ~ Poems ~ Shakespeare ~ Star Trek ~
