‘The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’ cast: All best quotes from the show
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is still living off of its stellar season 3 buzz on Amazon Prime. The multi-award-winning series also scored a season 4 renewal and it’s currently being filmed. Clearly, there’s no stopping the tour de force of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, huh?
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, a brainchild of Amy Sherman-Palladino (Gilmore Girls), follows Miriam “Midge” Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan), a housewife in 50s New York who discovers a talent for stand-up comedy after her husband, Joel (Michael Zegen), leaves her following an affair with his secretary. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel follows Midge as she tries to make it big as a stand-up comic with the help of her manager Susie (Alex Borstein).
As is Sherman-Palladino’s way, the dialogue of The Marvelous Mrs, Maisel truly sparkles along with the cast who delivers them. With that, here are some helpful quotes for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel to get you through the day.

“Why do women have to pretend to be something that they’re not? Why do we have to pretend to be stupid when we’re not stupid? Why do we have to pretend to be helpless when we’re not helpless? Why do we have to pretend to be sorry when we have nothing to be sorry about? Why do we have to pretend we’re not hungry when we’re hungry?”
“The world is full of disappointments, and sometimes people let you down. You can’t just run away.”
“Tonight just for tonight I really need to be with someone who loves me.”
“If women don’t realize what’s going on in the world, they won’t step in and fix it.”

“Everything we bring on ourselves is our own fault.”
“Life isn’t fair. It’s hard and cruel. You have to pick your friends as if there’s a war going on. You want a husband who will take a bullet for you, not one who points to the attic and says, ‘they’re up there.’”
