Chilli: I don't think this is going to work.
Marissa: Sure it will.
Chilli: Dude, you don't know Volchok. Last year some guy snaked his wave, so he went up on the pier and dropped a kitchen sink on him... Where do you even get a kitchen sink?

Chilly: I don't get it, why don't you like me?
Summer: I'm already dating a dork.

Dr. Kim: And it has been my pleasure to teach you, to watch you grow, and now enter the world. Good luck. It is my honor to present to you the Harbor School class of 2006!

Guss: Hey Julie...
Julie: I got a gun, Guss.
Guss: That's cool.

Julie: Marissa, I just want you to know that, everything I ever did, good, bad, or otherwise, I did it for you. So that you could have a better life than I had. And I know I wasn't perfect. I mean, the thing with Luke and trying to frame Ryan for attempted homicide...
Marissa: Mom, I love you. Ok, just know that. (both crying)
Julie: Oh sweetheart, that's all I wanted. I love you too.
Marissa: Besides, you know the strength it takes to start over, to go out on my own? That has to come from being Julie Cooper's daughter.
Julie: I am spirited, aren't I?

Julie: Oh, my God. Cooper family hug.

Kaitlin: Can you imagine growing up with Marissa Cooper as your older sister?

Kirsten: So your Grandpa's broke.
Seth: Ryan and Marissa don't go to school any more.
Ryan: Jimmy Cooper just sailed out of town again.
Seth: I got two months of detention.
Sandy: That's the great thing about this place. Nothing ever happens.

Kirsten: Then it's back to the Newport Group, business as usual?
Sandy: Well, how ‘bout not? I went back to my old office, the place looked worse than ever. The guy in there was beaten down, exhausted... oh, it was a thing of beauty.

Marissa (to Ryan; her last words before she dies): No, stay. Don't leave.
Season 4

Marissa: Oh, my God. You're listening to your own voice.
Summer: You see, on all the TV shows I watch, all these women have voice-overs. They even gave one to April on The Valley. Now, where most of these voice-overs, they don't make much sense, they do make your life seem more dramatic and meaningful.
Marissa: So you think our lives need to be more dramatic?
Summer: No. Not yours.

Marissa: Ryan, I brought Volchok on us, it's only fair I help get rid of him. Come on, we're in this together, ok? (takes Ryan's hand) One last time.
Ryan: One last time.

Ryan: You know, this is gonna sound weird, but can I drive you to the airport? You were the first person I met here, I'd kinda like to be the last person to say goodbye.
Marissa: You know, it's funny. I was gonna ask you the same thing.

Ryan: Hey! Let's go graduate!

Ryan: I guess you don't remember me saying 'small'.
Seth: I did, I chose to ignore it.
