Quotes

  Taylor Townsend : [defensively]  A novel. Not a memoir. It's a big difference. Ask James Frey.

  [getting down in front of him, looking up] 

  Taylor Townsend : Things between us have been so good lately, and I wouldn't want one silly erotic novel to change all that. So, I'm gonna ask you a favor: please don't read it.

  Ryan Atwood : [self-depreciating gesture]  Look, I've never read a romance novel before.

  Taylor Townsend : [wryly, to herself]  Shocker.

  Ryan Atwood : And I'm not gonna start now.

  Taylor Townsend : [relieved]  Thank you. I'm gonna put this away now, and we'll never have to talk about it again.

  Ryan Atwood : [guffaws]  Until the movie comes out.

  Taylor Townsend : Yeah right, like they could make a movie about that. Maybe at the adult DVD store.

  [Ryan thinks about this] 

• Taylor Townsend : I just can't believe it. I mean, did you read every page? Even...

  Ryan Atwood : Page 47, yeah.

  Taylor Townsend : Okay, Ryan, even if I was that limber, you know I would never do it in the Chunnel.

• Ryan Atwood : Brilliant plan. Good luck getting rejected.

  Seth Cohen : Fortunately, it's something I excel at.
