Just 50 Iconic Samantha Jones Quotes To Give You 'SATC' Nostalgia
Hindsight has not been kind to all the Sex And The City ladies (cough, Carrie, cough) and the last woman standing just happens to have a doctorate in giving absolutely zero fucks. Samantha Jones, the PR powerhouse played so brilliantly by Kim Cattrall was the feminist pop culture icon the late 90s so badly needed. The rat race to settle down, get married, and have kids? No, thank you. Waiting for a man to pick you as his sexual partner? Boy bye. Letting other’s opinions keep you from success? Well, that’s just not a Samantha move.
Samantha was always true to herself, impressively candid about her relationships and sexual desires, and looked damn chic in every single scene during the series’ six year run on HBO. She’s still such an icon that over 15 years after the end of the series, Samantha quotes have a search volume of nearly 1,900 per month. Now that’s good PR. So in honor of this icon, we’ve gone ahead and collected the absolute best Samantha quotes from Sex And The City to take you back to a different era in New York City.
