Wendy Benson-Landes: Barbara Caufield

Quotes 

• Barbara Caufield : Truth is just something boring people tell each other. People who truly care about one another take the time to lie to each other.

  [as insincere as can be:] 

  Barbara Caufield : You look lovely.

  Tiffany Malloy : And you... hardly look used at all.

  Barbara Caufield : See? You can lie just as well as I can.

  Tiffany Malloy : Well, I prefer to lie to get something that isn't worth getting.

  Barbara Caufield : Why, that's beautiful. Would you mind *needlepointing* that for me and *putting* it over your bed when you go to Stanford, oh, 'Harvard of the West'?

  Tiffany Malloy : If Harvard is so stupid as to accept a big bunch of lies, then I don't wanna go there anyway.

  [breaks down, squeals:] 

  Tiffany Malloy : Oh, yes, I do!
