- Helen Thermopolis: Mia, You can't run from everything!
- Queen Clarisse Renaldi: She has a tower?
- Queen Clarisse Renaldi: Helen, if Amelia refuses to accept the throne, then Genovia will cease to exist as we know it.
- Helen Thermopolis: So the future of your country is in the hands of my 15-year-old?
- Helen Thermopolis: This is getting us nowhere! Talk to me!

- Queen Clarisse Renaldi: I'm late for a meeting with Spain and *Portugal*!
- Helen Thermopolis: Mia, the-the three of us have to talk.
- Mia: Oh, OK. Um, is there maybe something else about me and my life that just maybe I might want to know about? Um-oh no, are you two waiting to take me on a talk show somewhere and to let me know I have a twin sister who's a duchess?
- Queen Clarisse Renaldi: You have a cousin who's a contessa. Fondly known as Bartholomew. Actually, we call him Pookie.
- Mia: [on her green bathing suit] Okay I look like an asparagus.
- Helen Thermopolis: But a very, very cute asparagus!
- Helen Thermopolis: That Backstreet Boy clone you've had a crush on for years?
- Mia: He's not a Backstreet Boy clone.
- Helen Thermopolis: [comforting Mia after she's been humiliated at the beach party] My mom always told me l couldn't cry and toId me to be a big girl. But you've been hurt, so you just cry, okay?
- Mia: It was really bad. My foot didn't even pop!
