Giulia: Seems like a typical mother-daughter argument. Ways that parents can make their own children feel judged is when they don't try to or they don't even like even the littlest of effort to gain perspective on their level. It's just gonna make it worse because you're not actually listening or asking what actually has happened.

Lady Bird: I wish I could live through something.

Marion: Aren't you?

Lady Bird: Nope.

Marion: Fine. Well, yours is the worst life of all. So you win.

Lady Bird: Oh, so now you're mad.

Marion: No, you're being ridiculous because you have a great life.

Lady Bird: I'm sorry, I'm not perfect.

Marion: No, one's asking you to be perfect. Just considerate would do.

Lady Bird: I Don't even wanna go to school in this state anyway, I hate California.

Seb: Two different viewpoints here.

Giulia: It seems like a typical mother daughter argument in my car.

Marion: An immaculate heart is already a luxury.

Lady Bird: Immaculate fart, you wanted that, not me.

Marion: Miguel saw someone knifed in front of him at SAC High. Is that what you want? So you're telling me that you want to see somebody knifed right in front of you.

Lady Bird: He barely saw that. I wanna go where culture is like New York.

Marion: How in the world did I raise such a snob? 

Lady Bird: Or at least Connecticut or New Hampshire where writers live in the woods.

Marion: You won't get into those schools anyway.

Seb: Felt like it was just kind of two different viewpoints and ideologies kind of clashing a bit.

Paula: The daughter wants to do something yet the mother, you know, she knows best. So she thinks.

Seb: And sometimes they need someone just to like be on their level and same wavelength. Otherwise you're not gonna get anywhere.

Elsa: I believe the daughter she wants to get to places, the mother's almost suppressing all that and not giving her the benefit of the doubt. Why don't we meet halfway and listen to what she's got to say? The daughter, it almost seems like the mom's putting her down a little bit.
