I already have a pain in my chest. I don’t need an even bigger one in my ass.

Maxine Gray, Judging Amy

Maxine: Now if you don’t mind I’m in the middle of something.

Sean: Anything I can help with?

Maxine: No.

Sean: What are you in the middle of?

Maxine: I am in the middle of being alone and so in fact you can help me by leaving.

Some memorable quotes from Maxine Gray.

Interior Decorator: Usually I’m so perceptive of people. Come on… what’s changed?
Maxine: Two weeks ago my fiancée died of a heart attack 48 hours before we were to be wed. Also, I’ve cut my hair.

Board Member: We’re a little concerned that your director is a drug addict.
Maxine: No, my director is a former drug addict. I myself am a former high school student, and everyone here used to poop in your pants. What’s your point?

Maxine: Never wear fire for a hat… I haven’t any idea what it means. I read it in a bathroom stall once and it stuck with me.

Maxine: By the way, I’m getting married a week from Saturday. I expect you to be there.

Sean Potter: A week from Saturday? Maxine, why are you getting married a week from Saturday?

Maxine: So I can have sex, Sean. Why else would anyone get married?

Amy : [after being shouted out, Maxine rushes into the kitchen] Mom, are you OK?
Maxine : [trying not to laugh] Of course, but I am 65 years old, and my boyfriend’s mother hates me

Lauren Cassidy: What’s anorexia?
Maxine: It’s a disease women get by reading magazines.

“It takes a special kind of hubris to put a ‘Go Vegetarian’ on your SUV.”

Maxine: Why is it so hard for you to believe that I am attractive to men?

Peter (her grown son): Uh, you’re my mother!?

Maxine: And I got that way by being attractive to men

“My anger is ignited by men who beat children to death with extension cords, and women who plunge babies into scalding water so they’ll stop crying. My anger is ignited by fathers who rape their daughters, and pregnant women who take crack and drink alcohol without a thought for the tiny souls they are damning to a lifetime of pain. Babies in dumpsters, drug overdoses, burns, cuts, gunshot wounds, wasted minds and ruined lives. My anger is ignited by a society that pays lip service to its children while treating them as nothing more than a marketing demographic, and by schools that are falling apart and teachers so numbed by violence and fear that they’ve stopped teaching, but whats really pissing me off today is a room full of ‘supposed’ grownups who think that “bad drivers” and “loud talkers” and “hips” are worth getting angry about, when all the rest of that actual evil is loose in the world.”
