Selina: Jonah. Hey, listen, settle something for me. Jonah: OK. Selina: You like to have sex and you like to travel? Jonah: Yes, ma'am. Selina: Then you can fuck off.

Selina: Please God, deliver Jonah to Congress and then give him any kind of cancer, I don't care.

Selina: Jesus Christ. You know, you do your best, you try to serve the people, and then they just fuck you over. Gary: Yep. Selina: And you know why? Because they're ignorant and they're dumb as shit. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is democracy.
