Slim is a lady, not a doll

This film, which I watched several times, finally made me feel deeply resonated and moved in the night when I could not sleep. Hepburn is so beautiful, so beautiful. I don't know why she always feels very relevant to her situation.

The slim one is a lady, not a doll. Even if you help me develop it like a game, I also have thoughts. I will be angry, angry, happy, and sad. I am just like you, with flesh and blood, and feelings. Maybe not quite the same, because you probably don't have a lot of sense.

The situation I am in now makes me have a lot of resentment towards men. You ignore me, you ignore me, and when you need me, you talk sweetly. Once there are more important things in your mind, I can be completely ignored, and I don't feel it

Why are women not men? A woman can never be a man

Everyone is so nice, it's exactly how the parties feel.

My Fair Lady quotes

  • Professor Henry Higgins: Eliza, you are to stay here for the next six months, learning to speak beautifully, like a lady in a florist's shop. If you work hard and do as you're told, you shall sleep in a proper bedroom, have lots to eat, and money to buy chocolates and go for rides in taxis. But if you are naughty and idle, you shall sleep in the back kitchen amongst the black beetles, and be walloped by Mrs. Pearce with a broomstick. At the end of six months you will be taken to Buckingham Palace, in a carriage, beautifully dressed. If the king finds out you are not a lady, you will be taken to the Tower of London, where your head will be cut off as a warning to other presumptuous flower girls! But if you are not found out, you shall have a present... of, ah... seven and six to start life with as a lady in a shop. If you refuse this offer, you will be the most ungrateful, wicked girl, and the angels will weep for you.

  • Eliza Doolittle: [singing] Lots of chocolate for me to eat! / Lots of coal makin' lots of heat / Warm face, warm hands, warm feet / Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
