Jodie Abigail Landon:
You realize your negative approach to everything is self-defeating, right?

Daria:
Well, it's nice to know there's someone I can defeat.

Jodie Abigail Landon:
I mean, you may spare yourself some pain by cutting everyone off, but you miss out on alot of good stuff too.

Daria:
Look Jodie, I'm too smart and too sensitive to live in a world like ours, at a time like this, with a sister like mine. Maybe I do miss out on stuff, but this attitude is what works for me now.

Jodie Abigail Landon:
Then you'll understand what works for me now. At home, I'm Jodie - I can say and do whatever feels right. But at school I'm The Queen of the Negros, the perfect African-American teen, the role-model for all the other African-American teens at Lawndale. Oops! Where'd they go? Believe me: I'd like to be more like you.

Daria:
Well, I have to admit there are times when I'd like to be more like you.

Jodie Abigail Landon:
Really?

Daria:
I'm not saying all the time.
