Modifiers are obsessed, not with women, but with models, who in most cities are safely confined to billboards and magazines, but in Manhattan actually run wild on the streets, turning the city into a virtual model safari, where men can pet the creatures in their natural habitat.
-As if we didn't have enough problems.
-They're stupid and lazy and they should be shot on sight.
-I’ve been out with a lot of guys and they say I'm just as beautiful as a model, but I work for a living. I'm like... a model who's taken the high road.
-The advantages given to models and beautiful women in general are so unfair, it makes me wanna puke.
-Sweetheart, you shouldn’t have said that. you are So cute.
-Cute doesn't cut it in this town. What's cute compared to supermodel?

-And you're looking at me while you're saying that?
-We should just admit that we live in a culture that promotes impossible standards of beauty.

-Oh, come on!
-I can't even open a magazine without thinking, ''Thighs, thighs, thighs.''
-Well, I'll take your thighs and raise you a chin.
-I'll take your chin and raise you a...What?
-Oh, come on.
-I happen to love the way I look.
-you should. you paid enough for it.
-I resent that! I do not believe in plastic surgery. Well, not yet.
-I find it fascinating that four beautiful, flesh-and-blood women could be intimidated by unreal fantasies.
