"He likes his tea stirred anti-clockwise."
Emma Peel, The Avengers (1960s)

"I love those hick shirts he wears with the boiled cuffs and the way he always has his vest buttoned wrong. Looks like a giraffe, and I love him. I love him because he's the kind of a guy that gets drunk on a glass of buttermilk, and I love the way he blushes right up over his ears. Love him because he doesn't know how to kiss, the jerk!"
Katherine "Sugarpuss" O'Shea, Ball of Fire

Rita: What about me, Phil? Do you know me, too?
Phil: I know all about you. You like producing, but you hope for more than Channel 9 Pittsburgh.
Rita: Well, everyone knows that!
Phil: You like boats, but not the ocean. You go to a lake in the summer with your family up in the mountains. There's a long wooden dock and a boathouse with boards missing from the roof, and a place you used to crawl underneath to be alone. You're a sucker for French poetry and rhinestones. You're very generous. You're kind to strangers and children, and when you stand in the snow you look like an angel.

Nate, Leverage

Mary: I'm sorry I said all those terrible things, but...everyone else I love is either in jail or getting out of jail or getting married or moving out and so...I figured why not you too.

Burt: You are to me.
Mary: How can I be?
Burt: Because I love you.
Mary: I don't know why.

You take food off my plate and you have never, ever, ironed one of my shirts correctly. And I think that that's all adorable. If I didn't love you, I would've divorced you by now. And that's how I know. I just love you.
