Seven-time Oscar-winning comedy-drama Everything Everywhere All at Once focuses on Chinese immigrant Evelyn Wang (Michelle Yeoh) who, after failing to submit some taxes, is swept up into a surreal journey alongside her husband Waymond Wang (Ke Huy Quan) and her daughter Joy Wang (Stephanie Hsu) where she is the only one capable of saving existence as she explores alternate universes and makes connections with the lives she could have lived.
Here are the most memorable film quotes from Everything Everywhere All at Once.
- Evelyn Wang: You are not unlovable. There is always something to love. Even in a stupid, stupid universe where we have hot dogs for fingers, we get very good with our feet.
- Waymond Wang: You think because l’m kind that it means I’m naive, and maybe I am. It’s strategic and necessary. This is how I fight.
- Evelyn Wang: Of all the places I could be, I just want to be here with you.
- Chad: Raccacoonie, I don’t know what I’d do without you.
- Waymond Wang: The only thing I do know is that we have to be kind. Please, be kind. Especially when we don’t know what’s going on.
- Waymond Wang: So, even though you have broken my heart yet again, I wanted to say, in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you.
- Jobu Tupaki: Just be a rock.
- Jobu Tupaki: If nothing matters, then all the pain and guilt you feel for making nothing of your life goes away
- Jobu Tupaki: Every new discovery is just a reminder…
Evelyn Wang: We’re all small and stupid. - Jobu Tupaki: I got bored one day and put everything on a bagel.
- Jobu Tupaki: I wasn’t looking for you so I could kill you. I was just looking for someone who could see what I see, feel what I feel.
- Jobu Tupaki: [singing] Sucked. Into. A Bagel…
- Evelyn Wang: What did my silly husband say to you?
Deirdre Beaubeirdra: He told me about your situation. I remember when my husband served me papers. I drove his Kia Forte through my neighbor’s kitchen. But you know what I say? It’s cold, unlovable bitches like us that make the world go round.
Evelyn Wang: That’s not true. You’re not unlovable. - Jobu Tupaki: The universe is so much bigger than you realize.
- Evelyn Wang: [struggling with legal predicament] I can’t talk right now. Unless you can help me with my taxes. What is “gross necklaces”?
- Evelyn Wang: No more google eyes!
- Joy Wang: Do you still want to do your party?
Evelyn Wang: We can do whatever we want. - Raccacoonie: Chad, don’t forget about me!
- Evelyn Wang: Enough of your clay pots, cream cheese, no cows! Explain it all to me, now!
- Jobu Tupaki: Nothing… matters.
- Evelyn Wang: You are like puppets. You know? Puppets? You can do things you normally cannot do. It’s like that movie. Um, you… you… That movie…
