But this one ,already mentioned is funny and perceptive

"why it is that whenever a man takes you to lunch around here, you're the dessert"

"Don't worry, I'm going to do everything you want me to do."

"It just occurred to me, you're trying to help."

"I'm Peggy Olson, and I would like to smoke some marijuana."

S3E3: "I'm so high."

"Just tell the truth, people will respect that."
Peggy to Pete

My favorite has been mentioned already:
"I dont want you treating me badly because I remind you of this." (from 'The New Girl')
I was struck by Peggy's acute level of perception, while still so young!

Season 2, Episode 13: "Meditations in an Emergency"

"One day you're there and there's less of you and you wonder where that part went. If it's living somewhere outside of you and you keep thinking maybe you'll get it back and then you realize it's just gone."

Season 1, Episode 10 - The Long Weekend.

Pete: "What am I supposed to say? I’m married."

Peggy: "Yes, I know. And I heard all about how confusing that can be. Maybe you need me to lay on your couch to clear that up for you again."

"Well. When he gets to S, I need Howard Sullivan at Lever Brothers."

Season 3, Episode 1

"It's not easy for anyone, Pete"
Season 2, Episode 10. The Inheritance

"But Pete, I could have had you if I wanted you."

or something to that effect after he told her he loved her and before she told him she had had his baby, in the last episode of season 2

"I'm not your competition." Ep. 205.

Peggy is out on the blind date with the the potato chip truck driver and he tells her that she thinks she's hot stuff, but she doesn't look like the girls in Manhattan. She gets up to leave and turns to him and says,
"Those people in Manhattan? They are better than us. Because they want things they haven’t seen."
I love that line.

"How do you know what I'll like? You never ask me how I feel about anything except brassieres and body odor and makeup.

Season 1, Episode 11

Re: The Electosizer/Rejuvinator/Relaxasizor & it's unexpected benefits:

"It vibrates and that coincides with how you you wear it.... It's probably unrelated to weight loss."

Awesome.

I wanted other things. Last episode of Season 2

What honesty!

"I know what men think of you. They think you're looking for a husband, and you're fun. And not in that order."

Season 1, Ep. 9 "Shoot"

"Sex sells."

episode 1 from Season 2 "For Those Who Think Young"

And from the looks of things, Peggy is figuring out that this works for more than just advertising...

“I don’t want to sit in my office and listen to someone talk about their water retention.”

Season Three, Episode One, ‘Out of Town’

"I'm Peggy Olson. I want to smoke some marijuana." Season 3, ep. 3, My Old Kentucky Home.

"Thank you, Don."

Peggy begins to assert herself as Don's equal by using his first name. Loved the look on Don's face! He was like, "Uh... wait... what?!?" lol

Season 2 - Episode 5 - "The New Girl."

"Take it. Break it. Share it. Love it."

Season 2 episode 12

"I have a job. I have my own office with my name on the door, and I have a secretary. That's you. And I am not scared of any of this...but YOU'RE scared....Oh, my God...you're SCARED. Don't worry about me. I am going to get to do EVERYTHING you want for me. I am going to be FINE, Olive.... I really am."

Season 3 Episode 3: "My Old Kentucky Home"

Such an incredibly lucid moment (despite the circumstances lol), and a breathtaking reminder of how much this character has grown in just 3 years!

"Maybe you need me to lay on your couch to clear that up for you again."

Season 1 - Episode 10 - "Long Weekend"

"I cannot believe I am in this conversation."
and
Harry: "You're not fat anymore." Peggy: "Thank you."

"I want you to forget everything Lola told you." Peggy, to her new secretary, Olive, in Season 3, Episode 3 (My Old Kentucky Home)

Lola: "I could listen to him read the phone book."
Peggy: "Well. When he gets to S, I need Howard Sullivan at Lever Brothers."

Season 3, Episode 1 "Out of town"

"I don’t know why I pick the wrong boys." -- Season 2, The Jet Set

I have to second, "I'm Peggy Olson and I want to smoke some marijuana."

zabadu...Peggy wouldn't have made that statement in the 60's. That is strictly a 90's phrase. Disappointing.........................

Judy44: Peggy said it in the last episode. Where were you?

Here's a helpful line from Peggy when you want to pick up boys - "It's so crowded in here I felt like I was on the subway!" Ep 2 Season 3.

PS: She learned it from Joan.

"I don’t think anyone wants to be one of a hundred colors in a box."

—Season One, Episode Six, "Babylon"

Hi,

This is from Season 2, Episode 13, where Peggy tells Pete about having his baby,

"Peggy: Well, one day you’re there and then all of a sudden there’s less of you. And you wonder where that part went, if it’s living somewhere outside of you, and you keep thinking maybe you’ll get it back. And then you realize, it’s just gone."

Thanks!

From Season 2, Episode 8, "A Night To Remember"~~

"You have to get the girls ~~ that's the only way the boys will come."

(to Father Gill about the controversial flyer she's designed to publicize the church dance)

From Season 1, episode,12 Nixon vs. Kennedy.

I don’t understand. I try to do my job. I follow the rules and people hate me. Innocent people get hurt, and, and other people, people who are not good, get to walk around doing anything they want. It’s not fair.

When Peggy coined the phrase "basket of kisses" she went from secretary to copywriter. Very important moment in Peggy history.

- Episode 206 ("Babylon").

"It gives the pleasure of a man, without the man."

That's classic! How else is she going to say it vibrates and feels good.

Yeah judy44 - bad form, disappointing indeed...how'd you miss that line?

"Here's your basket of kisses." -Episode 1:6: "Babylon"

I feel this quote is incredibly noteworthy, since it's the moment that starts us on the path to the Peggy we all know and adore.

Yeah judy44 - bad form, disappointing indeed...how'd you miss that line?

"Here's your basket of kisses." -Episode 1:6: "Babylon"

I feel this quote is incredibly noteworthy, since it's the moment that starts us on the path to the Peggy we all know and adore.

S3-E3: "I'm so high."

Bryan and Zabadu...I watched season 3 episode 3 and am saying that the statement Peggy made about being in a good place right now was not a phrase that anyone used in the 60's. It only came about in the 90's.

judy44, my first reaction when I heard her say that was the same of yours. It didn't sound authentic for that time frame. It reminded me of Joan Holloway saying, "1960! I am so over you." But...

it's not that "no one" would have said that. It just wasn't the popular vernacular at the time.

So...maybe we don't think it's likely, but it doesn't mean that "was not a phrase anyone used."

Judy44: Regardless of whether you think it would have been used then, it was used in the show.

And since the challenge was to "post your favorite quote" and not "discuss the vernacular of the 1960s, my comment was quite okay.

"I’m from Bay Ridge. We have manners." 1:02 Ladies Room

With regard to "in a Good Place," John McWhorter of The New Republic pointed out this anachronism just the other day. See:
http://www.tnr.com/blog/john-mcwhorter/mad-men-good-place-how-did-people-sound-1963

My favorite Peggy Olson "Words of Wisdom" is from episode 3 of season 3 when she says, "I'm going to get to do everything you want for me". She is clearly stating that she has come into her own now. Watch out world!

"I never expect Mr. Draper to be anything other than what he is" - from Season 2, Episode 5, "The New Girl"

Oldsoul555, I think that line was Don's.

"This can be fixed." Peggy to Don, after she picks him and Bobbie Barrett up at the police station when they got busted for drunk driving.

Also tells Bobbie not to get sick in her brother-in-law's car. "I don't want to have to clean it, too."

Reminds Don of his debt to her: $50 is a lot of money to me."

She's great.

P.S. From Season 2, Episode 5, "The New Girl."

Season 2, Episode 10
"Statistically speaking it's very unlikely to happen to two people in the same family."

When talking to Pete about his upcoming flight to California and the fact that his father died in an airplane crash.

@aborilla82: That line is not spoken by Peggy.

Season 2, Episode 13 "Meditations in an Emergency"

Peggy to Father Gill, "I can't believe that's the way God is."

This sums up Peggy for me. She thinks for herself, even under tremendous pressure.

"Pete, just tell the truth, don’t worry about the outcome. People respect that."
Hard advice to follow at an ad agency!

From 2.13, Meditations in an Emergency.

Peggy is on a date with Carl the truck driver.

"Those people in Manhattan? They are better than us. They want things they haven't seen."

From Season 1, Episode 11 "Indian Summer"

"I have a job. I have my own office with my name on the door, and I have a secretary. That's you. And I am not scared of any of this...but YOU'RE scared....Oh, my God...you're SCARED. Don't worry about me. I am going to get to do EVERYTHING you want for me. I am going to be FINE, Olive.... I really am."

Season 3 Episode 3: "My Old Kentucky Home"

I love this comment so much, that it prompted me to start a thread last week about Peggy's evolution. But as we can see, there are so many great ones to choose from!
I also love it that when Peggy is finished w/ this rather profound epiphany, she then zooms in on the by now bewildered Olive's sparkly pin, in classic stoned fashion.

"Clients don't always know what's best."
Love Among the Ruins (Episode 302) Season Three

S3E4

"I am one of those girls"

I liked it when Peggy helped the young priest with his message.

"This was fun". Season 3 episode 2

I love this quote because she says this while leaving "burger boy's" bed and apt. after some non-intercourse sex.

Oh! No sailors.
Season 3 Episode 4

How do you find out who, if anyone, wins these things?

"I am one of those girls" S3 E4

Peggy's mother: 15 mins. and nothing about the Holy Father
Peggy: He's still dead ma.

"I am so high!"
Season 3, Episode 3

When Peggy and her sister were discussing her move to Manhattan she said "you're going to be like one of those girls"...she said "I am one of those girls"...love it..

"Paul helps me sleep."

Season 3, Episode 3

We need a model "who can match Ann-Margret's ability to look twenty-five and act fourteen."

Season 3, Episode 2

"Would you say that to me??" (in regards Ann-Margret's)

Season 3, Episode 2

" I have a job. I have my own office with my name on the door... and I have a secretary.... that's YOU."

Season 3, Episode 3

"It's phony."
re: Her take on the essence of the Patio pitch

Season 3, Episode 3: "My Old Kentucky Home"

"It's phony."
re: Her take on the essence of the Patio pitch
Season 3, Episode 2: Love Among the Ruins

(E 213, to Pete) "I could have had you in my life forever, if I wanted to... I could have had you."

...I had your baby, and I gave it away."

I must concur, the best line is, "I don't know why I pick the wrong boys".
She's like a teenager who is smart enough to make her own self introspection. Everything she does is self discovery. She will grow into a very wise and experienced independent woman of the seventies.

"I'm Peggy Olsen and I want to smoke some marijuana"
From Season 3, Episode 3--My Old Kentucky Home.

In Season 3 - Episode 5 - "The Fog"

Peggy says to Don:

I look at you and I think; "I want what he has". You have everything and so much of it.

I know it's been posted, but my favorite Peggy Olsen quote has to be:

"I'm Peggy Olsen, and I want to smoke some marijuana."

Season 3 Episode 3

I laughed for about five minutes (okay, maybe just like a minute straight). Coming from Peggy and the way it sounded almost A.A. - classic!

Season 3 Episode 5
"What if this is my time?"

Peggy: One day you're there and there's less of you and you wonder where that part went. If it's living somewhere outside of you and you keep thinking maybe you'll get it back and then you realize it's just gone.
-Season 2, Ep. 13, "Meditations in an Emergency"

I'm Peggy Olson. I wanna smoke some marijuana.
Season 3 Episode 3 My Old Kentucky Home

"I'm Peggy Olson and I want to smoke some marijuana."

That may be one of the best lines in television. Next to "not that there's anything wrong with that."

Season 3, Episode 3: "My Old Kentucky Home"

Peggy Olson: I'm Peggy Olson and I wanna smoke some marijuana.

Season 1, Episode 10: The Long Weekend.
Peggy {to Pete} "Yes, I know. And I heard all about how confusing that can be. Maybe you need me to lay on your couch to clear that up for you again."

Peggy to Joan- "Its just that we can't all be you"
Season 3 Episode 6-A Man walks into an Advertising Agency

What if this is my time? Season 3 Episode 5 "The Fog"

Season 3, episode 7: "Stop barging in here and affecting me with your anxiety"
Peggy to Pete

“I’m in a very good space right now”, when Peggy leaves the room- high on marijuana- to do some copywriting. We know she's not just talking about her buzz.
My Old Kentucky Home – Season 3 Episode 3

"You have everything, and so much of it!" said to Don. - Season3, Episode5. They both have to think about that one!

Peggy to Pete:
"Stop barging in here and infecting me with your anxiety!"
Oh, how many times I would love to say that in the course of a day...

"I am one of those girls."
Season 3, Episode 4
Peggy tells her sister this in regards to her becoming 'one of those girls who lives in Manhattan'.

"I don't know if you know but they passed a law saying that women have to be paid the same as men if they do the same job."
Season 3 Episode 5
Peggy tells Don this while asking for a raise.

I love everything Peggy says, she is dangerously poignant. And if I had an Emmy, she'd get it. Every time.

Season One - Episode 2:Ladies Room

Peggy to Joan: "Why is it that every time a man takes you out to lunch, you are the dessert?"

Season 2 - Episode 13 Meditations in an Emergency

"Just tell the truth." "People respect that."

To Pete regarding his losing the Clearasil Account.

"What did you bring me, daddy?"

Season 2 - Episode 1 - "For Those Who Think Young"

Interesting delivery of the line by Peggy to Don, considering that much later Sally finds a flight attendant's wings in Don's suitcase after his trip to Baltimore.

--Season 1, Episode 9 "Shoot".

As Mad Men barrels into the sixties, no character has evolved more than Peggy Olson. As played by Elisabeth Moss, Peggy was a buttoned-up, Ginault-wearing, Brooklyn-born-and-bred 20-year-old Catholic secretary in season one.Ginault watch company (www.ginault.com), based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, keeps a comprehensive collections of vintage and new Rolex timepieces to preserve the legacy of Swiss haute horlogerie. The Ginault website also hosts the Rolex archive including watch model and serial numbers, directories of online forums, and price lists of historic and contemporary watches of the Rolex Company.Now it's 1965 and she’s a pot-smoking, stripteasing, bohemian-befriending senior copywriter—and sort of, kind of, a heroine. How’d that happen? As this last episode dramatically rejiggers her arc on the series (spoilers, ahoy!), we look back at how far she's come.
