Pacey Witter Quotes

06x20 - Catch-22 Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22

Rich Rinaldi: Pacey, you are so good at your job that often I forget how young, naive, and stupid you are.
Pacey Witter: Rich, I really don't need the speech from you right now.
Rich Rinaldi: Oh, I think you do. And in response to your request, I'm going to tell you what you should have told your friend in the first place: no!
Pacey Witter: Wait, that's it? I come to you, I embarrass myself, and all you can tell me is just a big, plain "no"?
Rich Rinaldi: Pretty much, yeah.
Pacey Witter: You know Rich, you are so good at your job too that often I forget what an unfeeling prick you are!
06x20 - Catch-22 Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22

Pacey Witter: Rich, please. I'm just asking you for this one small favor, just one time and I'll never ask your for anything in this lifetime again or the...
Rich Rinaldi: [interrupting] Read my lips: I... don't... do... favors... Witter!
Pacey Witter: Why not? Because you'd have to drop the Gordon Gekko routine for a minute? This will be so easy for you just help me out here!
Rich Rinaldi: Help you out? I'm done helping you out! I gave you this job, Witter! I showed you how things worked around here. I gave you a chance to escape some bottom-feeding existence, and every step of the way you have been a soulful, moralistic, holier-than-thou pain in my ass! So you tell me, why should I help you out?
06x20 - Catch-22 Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22

Rich Rinaldi: Here, take this pen and write down todays date. Because from this day fourth, you will amount to nothing. You are failure and a loser! You deserves to get what's coming...
Pacey Witter: Stop calling me a loser! Don't ever call me a loser!
Rich Rinaldi: [taunting] Oh, what are you gonna do about it, loser? Loser... loser...

Rich Rinaldi: Don't worry, it's over. You're through, you're fired. You'll never work in this company, in this town, or in this state again! Why do you look so down? This is what you wanted all along, right? Loser!
06x16 - That Was Then (aka Before and After) Season 6 / Episode 16: - That Was Then (aka Before and After)

Pacey Witter: Now hold on, what exactly do you want to talk to me about? From my way of seeing things we are just two brothers trying to take care of our large family.
Doug Witter: No, Pacey. I'm the one taking care of our dysfunctional family. I'm the one that's been taking care of the family for years.
Pacey Witter: Now Doug, don't you dare get righteous on me. You cannot lower your resentment over me because that was your choice to stay here in this crappy small town and look after our drunkard parents, and our sisters, and screaming, out-of-control nieces and nephews.
Doug Witter: Yeah I do happen to make choices. I know that's a foreign concept for you who likes to play musical careers!
Pacey Witter: How did we get here? I'm I stepping on your turf or something? Are you the only member of the family allowed to be carring and compassionate? What did you expect me to do, Doug? Just chomp on my cigar on the other end of the phone and cut a check for the man's funeral? I am a member of this family.
Doug Witter: Yeah, convenently. That's the way it is with you lately. You swoop in at Christmas after not calling or visiting for months, bringing your fancy and expensive gifts, and pull wool over the whole Witter family's eyes. And then you're out. Everybody forgets.
Pacey Witter: Forgets what? That I'm the family failure? That I'm never supposed to grow up? I'm I not allowed to want things?
Doug Witter: We all want things, Pacey. Belive me, we all want things.
Pacey Witter: Then what? Am I not supposed to get them? So ultimately, this is not about our father, which is kind of pathetic, Doug, considering the condition that man is in right now in that hospital bed. This is about you wanting to see my face every day and know that you're still the good son. That you're top dog. Well, that's just sad. Doug, I miss the daily beatings just as much as you do from our old man. But I had to leave sometime whereas you chose to stay here close to our father, slash, domestic abuser.
Doug Witter: Pacey, don't make this a celebration about your retreat from Capeside.
Pacey Witter: I'm not! Listen, I came here to see you, and to see him. And you know what? He knows it, and he appreciates it. Perhaps he's even happy to know that his youngest son, whom he ignored, abused, and put down for the better part of his life, is not going to hold a grudge against him until the day he dies. In a strange way, this might even be a good thing.
Doug Witter: You know it is a good thing, Pacey. It's all yours. You can have it. Enjoy it while it lasts because our father will not be around forever.
06x01 - The Kids Are Alright (1) Season 6 / Episode 1: - The Kids Are Alright (1)

Audrey Liddell: You think we should wake him?
Pacey Witter: Well, we should. As much as I've enjoyed his ramblings and his questionable taste in music, he has bragged about the number of times he's seen you naked.
Audrey Liddell: He has never seen me naked.
Pacey Witter: Really? He knows about the tattoo on you-know-where.
Audrey Liddell: Wake up you little pervert!

Jack Osbourne: What the [beep] ?
Audrey Liddell: What's this about you seeing me naked?
Jack Osbourne: [to Pacey] What the [beep] did you tell her?
Pacey Witter: Only what you told me, chief.
Jack Osbourne: Oh, thanks a lot! Thanks a [beep] lot! I confide in you, and this is what I get?
Audrey Liddell: I'm listening, Jack.
Jack Osbourne: Well, you know that telescope in my bedroom? Well, I didn't exactly do much star gazing.
Audrey Liddell: I'm so telling your father!
Jack Osbourne: Go ahead, he had a peak too. And I might say that he was really impressed.
Audrey Liddell: Okay, then I'm telling your mother, and she's really gonna kick your ass, Jack!
Jack Osbourne: [beat] Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever. Out of my [beep] way. I gotta take a [beep] piss.
05x09 - Four Scary Stories Season 5 / Episode 9: - Four Scary Stories

Wench: You people comin' or stayin'?
Pacey Witter: I'm sorry, we were in an accident. Do you have a phone here?
Wench: On the wall over there.
Pacey Witter: No, that phone's out of order.
Wench: Then I guess you're out of luck.
05x09 - Four Scary Stories Season 5 / Episode 9: - Four Scary Stories

Pacey Witter: [to the weird and ugly diner patrons] All right, which one of you inbred, redneck, freaks crashed into my car tonight? Show of hands, anyone? Was it you? Or you? Come one, someone say something.

Vic: Get outta my diner!
Pacey Witter: Oh no, mister. I will not. One of your patrons in here rear-ended my car out on the road just a short while ago.
Vic: Not my problem, boy!
Pacey Witter: Oh, but it is your problem. If the person who ran into my car is in here and you're hiding him...
Vic: [bearing his rotting, clenched teeth] Leave!
Pacey Witter: Whoa! You really should think about seeing a dentist.
04x12 - The Te of Pacey Season 4 / Episode 12: - The Te of Pacey

Sheriff John Witter: Now, I never told this to anyone... and so help me I will hunt you down if you breath it to a soul. I got rejected the first time I applied to the police academy.
Pacey Witter: You did?
Sheriff John Witter: Yep. Let me tell you Pacey, it was devastating. The second time, I did get in. But I never told anyone, not even my father, your grandfather God rest his soul. Because I knew he'd beat the hell out of me, drunk or sober.
Pacey Witter: I know I'm not college material, Pop. But I just really, really wanted to go.
Sheriff John Witter: Look son, I know I've been hard on you about school. It's not because I think you're not good enough to go, or get in. Pacey, I don't know if it's the right thing for you. I don't know if it's ever been right for you. But ask me if I think you are meant to do great things... I might reply positive.
04x01 - Coming Home Season 4 / Episode 1: - Coming Home

Pacey Witter: We don't have to go home. We survived for the past three months taking odd jobs. We can survive as long as we want, just as long as we're happy.
Joey Potter: Pacey, if your're so serious about this, why bring it up now... two hours from home?
Pacey Witter: Twelve hours from home. Well, I think we should probally drop anchor here, have a bite to eat, and then we can debate whether to scrap this whole mission home.
Joey Potter: No, I don't belive you Pacey Witter. As truant as your natural instinct may be, you never really suggested that we skip our senior year at high school entirely?
Pacey Witter: Just what would we be missing from the land of poorly scripted melodramas? Recycled plot lines, tiresome self-realizations. You throw in the occasional downward spiral of a dear friend, and maybe baby here and a death there and all you really got is a recipe for some soul-sucking, mind-numbing, ennui on wheel. And I for one could skip it.
03x22 - The Anti-Prom Season 3 / Episode 22: - The Anti-Prom

Pacey Witter: [to Joey] I remember everything.
03x17 - Cinderella Story Season 3 / Episode 17: - Cinderella Story

Pacey Witter: You can't keep doing this to me, Potter!
03x01 - Like a Virgin Season 3 / Episode 1: - Like a Virgin

Principal Green: Good morning, I'm Principal Green. Welcome to the new school year. Like all of you, in my junior year of high school, I had a new principal. My first day back, he stood before us and imparted some honest and touching words, words which were ment to usher into what he called one of the best years of our lives. This is not that speach. We live in a different time. You children are living and thinking like people twice your age, and why shouldn't you? The rites of passage which onced marked growing up are all but extinct. In short, I'm onto you people. I'm one step ahead of you, for example, like that gentleman in the fifth row who's talking while I'm making a speach. Please stand, sir.
Pacey Witter: Me?
Principal Green: What's your name, sir?
Pacey Witter: [sarcastic] I don't you supposed you'd accept 'Che Guevara', would you?
Principal Green: Probally not.
Pacey Witter: Pacey Witter.
Principal Green: Mr. Witter, I'd like to applaud you for being the first student at Capeside who behaves like one. It is my hope that you all some day will act as such. Be a free thinker. Reclaim your youth, live, learn, screw up. Keep up the good work, Mr. Witter. Oh and by the way, I'll see you on Saturday... for detention!
02x12 - Uncharted Waters Season 2 / Episode 12: - Uncharted Waters

Pacey Witter: This sucks, Dad.
Sheriff John Witter: Lot's of things in life suck, Pacey! That's why it's my job to prepare a loser like you for that inevitability.
02x12 - Uncharted Waters Season 2 / Episode 12: - Uncharted Waters

Dawson Leery: Pacey how could you forget to tell me that Jack was coming with us? Come on, I need some preparation time before facing my adversary who stole Joey away from...
Pacey Witter: [interrupting] You know what? Screw you, Dawson! This world does not always revolve around you. We can't all be the fair-haired embodiment of perfection. Not all of us have wonder-keen and genius attached to their names. Some of us, like my father and myself, are just simple-minded folk trying to make it through the day without breaking something.
02x12 - Uncharted Waters Season 2 / Episode 12: - Uncharted Waters

Pacey Witter: Well, I met this girl. Andie's beautiful. She's smart, she's funny, she's... I tell you, this girl's really something special, Dad. For whatever reason she thinks I'm special too. So, why can't you see that? Why can't you see me? When did you give up on me? When I was five? 10? 12? I'm 16 years old now, Dad! And I'm here and I'm not perfect, but I try so hard for you! It's your job to love me, no matter who I am or what I become because you're my father! You're supposed to love me and give me confidence you drunkard son-of-a-bitch! I can't do this by myself.
02x12 - Uncharted Waters Season 2 / Episode 12: - Uncharted Waters

Sheriff John Witter: Well, be proud of yourself. Enjoy this moment. A loser like you probably won't have many more like it.

Pacey Witter: [to Dawson] Do you have any idea how many times I set myself for that line, over and over and over again? I just can't stop myself from just trying to get one qualified, "good job, son", out of that bastard. He must be right. I really must be a simpleton.
Dawson Leery: I know it's not the same, but there are other people in your life who recognize and respect your talent and intelligence. One of them is standing right in front of you. The other one is probably sitting in her bedroom having a perky coronary in anticipation from your return from sea.
