Quotes:
"You know what? You're absolutely right. I mean, I'm sick

my own story line."

I've grown up."

it, a clique... Let's face it, guys, we are this far away from the Peach Pit."

-#307 Escape from Witch Island
"You see, you as the girl who's wanton ways had her banished to the
boonies. You needed the affection of the
unblemished, small town, pure heart to validate you in your
oh so vulnerable time. Right? Me, the supernal black sheep
of the Witter crew, I guess I just needed the love and affection of a woman who's drive and devotion would
shame me to the core that it would force me to get in touch with the, I don't know, shall we call it my inner achiever? You and me,
we're different. We're on a level playing field."

Or don’t as the case may be."

you. So guess who really wins there?"

falling for Joey Potter."

-#321 Show Me Love
"Just what would we be missing from the land of poorly scripted melodramas, huh? Recycled plot lines, tiresome self-realizations.
Throw in the occasional downward spiral
of a dear friend, maybe a baby here and death there, and all you really got
is a recipe for some soul sucking, mind
numbing ennui, and I for one could skip it."
-#401 Coming Home
"Yes. Cause as you so rightly pointed out, I'm a guy. And if
I'm going to get in trouble for being a guy, I think I should at least get to act like one every once and awhile. You know, with your advanced permission and
approval. Of course, I wouldn't… do it without asking first."

-#409 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
"Well, maybe I just wanted these people to see you through my eyes for one night. To see this girl. This woman, who
has more class and intelligence and beauty and grace than anyone else who's walking the face of the planet. Maybe
things like this just come tumbling out of my mouth because I happen to be head over heels in love with you. But the
really scary thing is, I think that they're true."
-#409 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
"You considered that, didn't you? You did. I saw it in your eyes. You, Josephine Potter actually considered skipping
AP Bio and engaging in sexual activities with your boyfriend. On school grounds no less. Naughty girl."
-#416 Mind Games
Joey: I don't snore.
Pacey: I beg to differ.
Joey: So, Pace, um... the other day, I had to read this article for biology, and it said that contrary to all previous thinking
on the subject, human beings may actually be able to
regrow brain cells.
Pacey: So I guess that means the whole "this is your brain
on drugs" thing is moot.
Joey: I wouldn't go toking up just yet... but I think what it means is that at some point in the not-so-distant future, it
may actually be possible to forget all the bad stuff and only remember the good.
Pacey: I don't know. If you ask me, I think that's already possible.
-#503 Capeside Revisited
Pacey: Well, how about this? I would be satisfied if everybody would just do what makes them happy and left
it at that.
Jen: But the planets would collide, and the sea would boil over with blood.
Pacey: And don't I know it? But you did seem happy. At least for the first 5 minutes. Maybe not so much after that.

"I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. And things have a wonderful habit of working themselves out
regardless of how you may plan them to the contrary."
-#510 Appetite for Destruction

table and see a pair of eyes who's not really ready to kill herself or the person sitting directly to her right."
-#510 Appetite for Destruction [to Audrey]
Pacey: Now, there's an interesting idea, but what more
could have happened?
Dawson: Guys, I'm not gonna go over the bases with you.
Pacey: I didn't say bases. Did you say bases?
Jack: We don't need details.
Dawson: All right. I'll be right back.
Pacey: Bases is plural.
-#510 Appetite for Destruction
Pacey: Well, first off, why aren't you eating your risotto, but second and far more importantly, why, oh, why did you choose to take the lovely and talented Jen Lindley away
for the weekend?
Jack: A woman even my tribe can't resist?
Pacey: A woman who has tugged at the heartstrings of rehabilitated rebels and frat boys alike, and here you
are not sharing the details?

for
last year's class couple to have, do you?"
