- Angela Hayes: I don't think that there's anything worse than being ordinary.
- Lester Burnham: Janie's a pretty typical teenager. Angry, insecure, confused. I wish I could tell her that's all going to pass, but I don't want to lie to her.
- Ricky Fitts: My dad thinks I paid for all this with catering jobs. Never underestimate the power of denial.
- Lester Burnham: Look at me, jerking off in the shower... This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.
- Lester Burnham: Remember those posters that said, "Today is the first day of the rest of your life"? Well, that's true of every day but one - the day you die.
- Jane Burnham: I need a father who's a role model, not some horny geek-boy who's gonna spray his shorts every time I bring a girlfriend home from school.
- Carolyn Burnham: Your father and I were just discussing his day at work. Why don't you tell our daughter about it, honey?
- Lester Burnham: Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go fuck himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.
- Carolyn Burnham: Your father seems to think this type of behavior is something to be proud of.
- Lester Burnham: And your mother seems to prefer I go through life like a fucking prisoner while she keeps my dick in a mason jar under the sink.
- Carolyn Burnham: How dare you speak to me that way in front of her. And I marvel that you can be so contemptuous of me, on the same day that you LOSE your job.
- Lester Burnham: Lose it? I didn't lose it. It's not like, "Whoops! Where'd my job go?" I QUIT. Someone pass me the asparagus.
- Lester Burnham: When I was your age, I flipped burgers all summer just to be able to buy an eight-track.
- Ricky Fitts: That sucks.
- Lester Burnham: No, actually it was great. All I did was party and get laid. I had my whole life ahead of me.
