Carrie: I saw the Met is opening a new Goya exhibit. Do you want to go this Saturday?
Big: Sure. Could you get me some more duck sauce, please?
Carrie: I most certainly can. Oh, and we have to stop and see the Renoirs. I love the Renoirs.
Big: OK.
Carrie: There's a moment in every relationship where romancegives way toreality.
Big: You know-- You know what? I'm exhausted. You mind if we just call it a night? Okay?
Carrie: Sure.
Big: Good night.
Carrie: Night. That was the first night we slept together and didn't make love. By the middle of the next week, it was three timesin a rowand I was beginning to worry.
Miranda: Three times? Try three months.
Carrie: No.
Miranda: Yes. Now would be a good time to wipe that horrified look off your face.
Carrie: I'm sorry, sweetie. I'm sorry, I just-- I didn't know. Where have I been?
Miranda: You've been having sex. I've been at Blockbuster renting videos. It's tragic. I'm like two rentals away from a free pound a Gummy Bears.
Carrie: Relax. You're just in adry spell.
Miranda: I can't believe you said that. You're all freaked out about three times. I'm talking three months.
Carrie: That's different. Not doing it when you're with someone means much more than not doing it when you're not with someone.
Miranda: What are you worried about? I thought you said everything felt really comfortable and great.
Carrie: Normal is the halfway point between what you want and what you can get. Even in the plow position, I could count on Samantha for amazing sexual clarity.
Siddhartha: Very good. Let's move on todownward facing dog.
Samantha: With him, I could do itevery hour on the hour.
Carrie: Do you think it means something if Big and I are sleeping together but we're not sleeping together?
Samantha: The truth?
Carrie: When have I ever wanted that? Yeah. Okay, tell me.
Samantha: I think there's trouble. I mean sex is a barometer for what's going on in the relationship.
Carrie: I wasn't going to tell you this, but... I farted.
Samantha: Then move your mat away.
Carrie: Not now. I did it in front of Big.
Samantha: Huge mistake.
Carrie: You think? It wasn't a choice. I'm human. It happened.
Samantha: No, honey, you're a woman, and men don't like women to be human. We aren't supposed to fart, douche, use tampons or have hair in places we shouldn't. I mean, hell, a guy once broke up with me because I missed abikini wax.
Carrie: I knew it. This is a watershed relationship moment I'm never gonna be able to erase.
Samantha: Sure you will. Just go over there and fuck his brains out and he'll forget all about it. Men aren't that complicated. They're kind of like plants.
