Quotes edit
-
“It's May, just like the month. Just call me May.”
May/Maybelline Davenport -
“Don't you think I've tried? I thought having a degree meant something. All it means now is that I spent way too much time in school and less learning about real life.”
May -
“You college graduates...All the book sense in the world, but no common sense to save your lives.”
Princess -
“Honey, did you notice the cars lined up in the back? Didn't see a clunker in the bunch, right? Those are the clients's cars. We get guys in here like Biggers every day. They want some relief. They stay in charge all day long and they want someone else to take over for a change. Sometimes it involves physical pain to them. Sometimes they want to be treated like babies, literally. Diapers and all. It's all a fantasy like in those books you read.”
Princess -
“I like that. We can call you Mistress Mayai. You know, like 'may I.' I love it."”
Madame Z -
“Yeah, yeah you are. More than you think. You are as uptight as I was a few months ago. I had the world on my shoulders. Everyone with a hand out. Give me, give me, give me. It never stopped. Finally I found a place that took away all of my responsibility and guilt.”
