Quotes
-
Mrs. Duke : [Listing Stephen's journalism experience and background to her students] Contributing writer for Harper's magazine. Contributing writer for George Magazine. Contributing writer for Rolling Stone. And, of course, associate editor of The New Republic magazine in Washington D.C. Sorry if I'm beaming but, you know, I was his journalistic muse.
Stephen Glass : [to the students of her class] It's true.
Mrs. Duke : Just 7 years ago, he was sitting...
Stephen Glass : ...right there. I'm sorry. Right there. And I was doing the exact same thing you guys are doing. Grinding out pieces and then... having horrid nightmares of Mrs. Duke and her infamous red pen.
Mrs. Duke : And see what happens when greatness is demanded of you? Now he's at The New Republic.
Stephen Glass : And now I'm at The New Republic.
