15 Iconic 'Sex And The City' Quotes You MUST Remember While Dating
HBO

Cosmos and Manolo Blahniks. That's probably what comes to mind upon hearing "Sex and the City." But, since its premiere in 1998, this show has become so much more.

Not only did it dismantle taboos on female sexuality and showcase body positivity but it explored the powerful bonds of friendship amongst women. Four New York City friends, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha confide in each other and share their experiences about everything from the people they date to health issues.

Whether one is a lawyer like Miranda or a columnist like Carrie, SATC features well-rounded protagonists who viewers can relate to. Grab a cosmo and enjoy this list of iconic quotes by these badass women that you'll never forget while dating.

1. "I drink coffee, have sex, buy pies, and enjoy battery-powered devices." - Miranda

2. "Maybe you're only allowed a certain amount of tears per man; and I've used mine up." - Carrie

3. 'I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.' - Carrie

4. "Hey d*ck-wad, I'm speaking!" - Samantha

5. "I want to enjoy my success, not apologize for it." - Miranda

6. "I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love." - Carrie

7. "Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed, maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with." - Carrie

8. "We didn't work out. You need to not exist." - Miranda

9. "The good ones screw you, the bad ones screw you, and the rest don't know how to screw you." - Samantha

10. "The most exciting, challenging, and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous." - Carrie

11. "Do you know how lucky you are to have me?" - Charlotte

12. "Beauty is fleeting, but a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever" - Carrie

13. "If I worried what every b*tch in New York was saying about me, I'd never leave the house." - Samantha

14. "Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you're pretty sexy and you're taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with." - Carrie

15. "I love you... but I love me more." - Samantha

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
