Quotes
-
D.H. Banes : I believe, umm, that certain people in life are meant to fall by the wayside; to serve as warnings to the rest of us; signs posts along the way.
Igby : To where?
D.H. Banes : Success.
Oliver : Our father would be a 'slippery when schizophrenic' sign, for instance...
[pause]
Oliver : ... along the highway of life.

Oliver : [to Igby] I think if Gandhi had had to hang out with you for any prolonged period of time, he'd have ended up kicking the shit out of you.
-
Rachel : So are you two in school or something?
Oliver : I'm at Columbia and as far as this year's challenge for Igby, we're still waiting to hear back from this fun parochial school in D.C.
Igby : "Perchance to dream."
Oliver : He's already done the Protestant circuit. Mom must have some compromising photos of the head priest with an altar boy for them to even be considering Igby.
-
Oliver : So we started calling him Igby whenever he lied. And he lied a lot.

[first lines]
Igby : Why couldn't she have been a fucking smoker.
Oliver : This has nothing to do with her being in such wonderful shape. The cause of our trouble was our inability to come up with a drug short of paint thinner, that would be at least somewhat novel to her system. She's built up a tolerance to everything.
Igby : A tolerance? She's taking her fucking afternoon nap.

Igby : Listen, I've got this discount fare and it'd be kinda hypocritical of me, ya know, you'll handle it like everything else right?

Oliver : I don't
Igby : You should
Oliver : I don't hate you, don't be indulgent
Igby : Never that
Oliver : You're going to California?
Igby : Yup, the sunshine state.
Oliver : Actually, Florida is the sunshine state.
Igby : Really, well 3000 miles from fucking here.
Oliver : Is there a number where we can reach you?
Igby : We? No.
Oliver : Well you call when there is, There really isn't that much between us is there?
Igby : Just an ever diminishing amount of blood.
