The Best Good Trouble Quotes

Mariana: [entering] Callie?
Callie: Mariana, I decided to move in with Jamie. I'll cover my part of the rent for the rest of the lease or until you find a new roommate. I'll get the rest of my stuff this weekend.

Mariana: Actually, you know what? It's not fine. And it's not about misreading signals. It's about it being totally inappropriate to try to kiss one of your co-workers. Like, duh, I mean seriously did you, did you really think that asking me to help you with your work and, and telling me that I have such great ideas and trying to kiss me? Wouldn't make you look like you're completely full of crap? And make me feel even more disrespected and vulnerable than I already do around here? So, sorry, but sorry doesn't cut it.

Judge: You've raised a very impressive young woman. I hope you're proud of her because you have every right to be.
Lena: Thank you. We love her.
Judge: Kudos to you.
Judge: Callie, you didn't grow up with privilege like my children. You lost your parents at a young age, went into foster care, passed from home to home. And, in spite of being a juvenile delinquent, you turned it all around and you made something of yourself and your life. You're truly an inspiration and an example and I'm honored to be an early mentor in what I expect to be a very successful career.

Davia: Dear Davia, I'm so happy that you were able to be here today. I probably shouldn't say this, but you were my favorite student of all time. And not just because you had the most incredible voice, but because you were the most beautiful inside and out as well. I'm sorry we lost touch after you left New York, and I hope it's not because you thought I was disappointed that you gave up on your dream of Broadway. I've always been so proud of you. All I ever wanted was for you to love and believe in yourself. To choose a different path is not a failure as long as you're running towards your dreams and not away from them. I will be rooting for you from beyond, no matter what path you choose. If you don't mind, I do have one last favor to ask of you. If you will do me the honor.

Angela: Who do you think you are? It's your first week and you've got the nerve to bother the CEO of the company with some stupid app idea?
Mariana: No, I was just...
Angela: Oh, you think you're special because you went to MIT. Everyone here went to MIT or Stanford or Berkeley. You're not special. Pull something like that again you're going to be unemployed.

Rebecca: [voice-over on letter] Callie, I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye. But you know I'm not exactly the sentimental type. I'm making an exception with this note, but don't worry, I'll keep it short. You were right. Kate doesn't have a grandfather who can get her a clerkship with another judge. But before you get too proud of yourself, that's not the only reason I filed a complaint. I realized that as long as I allow my family connections to get me jobs and open doors, no one will believe I deserve to be where I am. That I've ever earned anything. I won't be my own person until I have the courage to stop being who my family wants me to be. I never thought I'd say this, but thank you. For challenging me. In so many ways, but mostly, to be a more independent thinker and to define myself on my own terms. I still disagree with you on your liberal politics, but I admire your conviction and your ethics. Which is why your secret is safe with me. I know you won't cross the line of what's appropriate, in spite of your intimate living situation. Tell Ben goodbye and to go to hell for me. And if you're ever in Denver, let's have a drink. Yours truly, Rebecca.
