Quote
Dex:
Look at me. Look at me, okay? Technically, I shouldn't be getting laid, but I do. And do you know why, Dave? Because when I'm hanging out with a woman, that's all I'm doing is hanging out, talking, listening. I'm not sitting there thinking about how to get in bed with her. And this completely confuses them because they're saying "Wait a minute. I'm so much better looking than this guy. Isn't he attracted to me?" The basic principle: We pursue that which retreats from us.
Rick:
It's from Heidegger.
Unnamed Guy Playing Poker:
Groucho Marks said the same thing. "Act like a woman can't join your club, and she'll do almost anything to get in."
