From: 10 Things I Hate About You
Genre: Movies
Who said it?: Kat Stratford
The story behind the quote: This quote comes the teen romance comedy 10 Things I Have About You. Based on the William Shakespeare play The Taming of the Shrew, the film focuses on antisocial Kat Stevens and “bad boy” Patrick Verona. Patrick is hired by another boy to date Kat as it’s the only way her father will allow him (the boy) to date Kat’s sister.
The quote comes at the end of the film. Kat (played by Julia Stiles) learns about how Patrick (played by the late Heath Ledger) was just hired to date her and won’t talk to him. When asked to recite the poem, she reveals that, despite all that’s happened, she still has feelings for Patrick.
Geek wisdom: Love will make you ignore all of the flaws another person has. Love will make you accept a person for the way he or she is right at this moment.
