“I saw my life… without you… I wish you could have seen it… it was beautiful.”
- (After multiverse-jumping for the first time)
- Evelyn Wang: (to Alpha Waymond) I saw my life… without you… I wish you could have seen it… it was beautiful.
During her initial multiverse jumps, Evelyn gets caught up in the alternate realities she experiences. Despite being a likable character, Evelyn has some harsh words for Waymond, saying that her life without him was “beautiful.” This quote not only triggers a heartbreaking reaction from Waymond, but also emphasizes how much Evelyn despises her current reality. She is consumed with the alluring possibilities that the multiverse presents, causing her to overlook the importance of her own life and loved ones. She won’t realize the significance of Waymond in her life and the depth of her love for him until later in the film.

- Evelyn Wang: (puts googly eye on her forehead)
- Waymond Wang: What are you doing?
- Evelyn Wang: Learning to fight like you.
In the final showdown between Evelyn (Michelle Yeoh) and Jobu Tupaki (Stephanie Hsu), Evelyn places a googly eye in the center of her forehead. This is symbolic of the bindis in Hinduism, which are traditionally placed between the eyes. This position on your forehead is believed to be the location of the sixth chakra, which represents hidden wisdom and enlightenment. Thus, by Evelyn placing a googly eye on her forehead, she is symbolically communicating her new position of enlightenment.

- (in the middle of the tax meeting)
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: Mrs. Wang? Mrs. Wang, are you with us?
- Evelyn Wang: Yes. Of course. I am here. Just… thinking.

- (Deidre places a receipt on the table. Evelyn looks at it)
- Evelyn Wang: This is a receipt. My receipt.
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: Look, I… I was just hoping that you could enlighten me as to how, as a laundromat owner, a *karaoke machine* could constitute a business expense.
- Evelyn Wang: (meekly) I am a singer.
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: (sighs) Of course you are.
- Waymond Wang: It’s true. She has a beautiful voice! Oh! Evelyn, sing a song for her.
- Evelyn Wang: Shh!
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: No, no, please. That will not be necessary. But I will need a separate Schedule C for each of these businesses because based on what you’re trying to deduct…
- (Deirdre shuffles through a pile of forms, referencing them at random)
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: …you’re also a novelist and a chef, a teacher, a singing coach, and a “Watsu” technician. I’m sorry, what… what is “Watsu”?

- Evelyn Quan Wang: Becky Is A Very Good Friend.
As Joy introduces her girlfriend Becky (Tallie Medel) to Gong Gong (James Hong) in Mandarin, she struggles to find the appropriate term for “girlfriend”. However, instead of lending a helping hand, Evelyn intervenes and inadvertently creates a heart-wrenching scene by referring to Becky as a “good friend.” Joy’s reaction speaks volumes as she visibly expresses her disappointment and justifiable anger towards her mother’s insensitivity. Adding to the agony, Becky remains oblivious to the situation. Fortunately, towards the end of the film, Evelyn redeems herself by offering a proper introduction, providing some solace to the hurtful moment earlier.
“I got bored one day and put everything on a bagel.”

- Jobu Tupaki: (singing) Sucked. Into. A Bagel…
“Why I actually built the bagel”
- Jobu Tupaki: Do you know why I actually built the bagel? It wasn’t to destroy everything. It was to destroy myself. I wanted to see if I went in, could I finally escape? Like, actually die. At least this way… I don’t have to do it alone.
“Maybe we would have been better off, if we had never gotten married.”
- Waymond Wang: I wanted to start off the new year on a new foot. But, maybe you’re right. Maybe we would have been better off, if we had never gotten married.
- Evelyn Wang: I never said that.
- Waymond Wang: You didn’t have to. It’s the way you look at me.
“Do you still want to do your party?”
- Joy Wang: Do you still want to do your party?

“There is no way I am the Evelyn you are looking for.”
- Evelyn Wang: There is no way I am the Evelyn you are looking for.
- Waymond Wang: No, I see it so clearly.
- Evelyn Wang: See what? I’m no good at anything.
- Waymond Wang: Exactly. I’ve seen thousands of Evelyns, but never an Evelyn like you. You have so many goals you never finished, dreams you never followed. You’re living your worst you.
- Evelyn Wang: I cannot be the worst. What about the hot dog one?
- Waymond Wang: No. Can’t you see? Every failure here branched off into a success for another Evelyn in another life. Most people only have a few significant alternate life paths so close to them. But you, here, you’re capable of anything because you’re so bad at everything.
“You have so many goals you never finished, dreams you never followed. You’re living your worst you.”

- Jobu Tupaki: (after turning a police officer into confetti) See, I CAN walk through you.
“A sacrifice necessary to win the war.”
(Alpha-Gong Gong from an alternate universe hands the main universe’s Evelyn a knife)
- Gong Gong: (about Jobu Topaki) Quickly, while she is distracted.
- Evelyn Wang: No.
- Gong Gong: It’s only protocol. It gives her one less universe to access. How do you expect to defeat her in every universe if you can’t even kill her in one.
- Evelyn Wang: She’s your granddaughter.
- Gong Gong: (sadly) How do you think I feel? But it is a sacrifice necessary to win the war.
“The last line of defense against total chaos.”
- Gong Gong: (addressing Alphaverse members) Once again, the Alphaverse finds itself as the last line of defense against total chaos. Be brave. This Evelyn is as stubborn as the others. She has given us no choice. We must kill her before she becomes another Jobu Tupaki.
“Sorry, my wife confuses her hobbies for businesses!”
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: Mrs. Wang? Mrs. Wang? Hello? Look, I’m sure you have a lot on your mind, but I cannot imagine anything mattering more than the conversation we are now having concerning your tax liability. Need I remind you that there is already a lien on your property? Repossession is well within our rights.
- Evelyn Wang: I know. I am paying attention.
- (Deirdre gestures behind her to some very suggestively-looking trophies behind her with her name on them)
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: Do you see these? You don’t get one of these unless you’ve seen a lot of bullsh!t. Excuse my French. Now you may only see a pile of boring forms and numbers, but I see a story. With nothing but a stack of receipts, I can trace the ups and downs of your lives. And it does not look good. It. Does. Not. Look Good.
- Waymond Wang: Sorry, my wife confuses her hobbies for businesses! An honest mistake.
- Deirdre Beaubeirdra: Oh. Okay. Well, with all of these “honest mistakes”, I mean, even if we don’t charge you with fraud, we’ll most certainly have to fine you for gross negligence.
“If nothing matters…”
- Jobu Tupaki: If nothing matters, then all the pain and guilt you feel for making nothing of your life goes away.

“It’s a cruel world… and we’re all running around in circles.”
- Waymond Wang: (to Alternate Evelyn; subtitles) You think I’m weak don’t you? All of those years ago when we first fell in love… your father would say I was too sweet for my own good. Maybe he was right.
- Waymond Wang: (to verse-jumpers) Please! Please! Can we… can we just stop fighting?
- Waymond Wang: (subtitles) You tell me it’s a cruel world… and we’re all running around in circles. I know that. I’ve been on this earth just as many days as you.
- Waymond Wang: I know you are all fighting because you are scared and confused. I’m confused too. All day… I don’t know what the heck is going on. But somehow… this feels like it’s all my fault.
- Waymond Wang: (subtitles) When I choose to see the good side of things, I’m not being naive. It is strategic and necessary. It’s how I’ve learned to survive through everything.
- Waymond Wang: I don’t know. 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: (subtitles) I know you see yourself as a fighter. Well, I see myself as one too. This is how I fight.
Please Be Kind

“I was just looking for someone who could see what I see, feel what I feel.”
- 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.
“Live up to your ultimate potential, or lie here”
- Waymond Wang: You can either come with me and live up to your ultimate potential, or lie here and live with the consequences.
- Evelyn Wang: I want to lie here.
“Of all the places I could be, why would I want to be here with you?”
- Joy Wang: Mom, just stop! Good for you. You’re figuring your sh!t out. And that’s great. I’m really, really happy for you. But I’m tired. I don’t want to hurt anymore. And for some reason when I’m with you, it just hurts the both of us. So let’s just go our separate ways, ok? Just let me go!
- Evelyn Wang: Ok.
- (pause)
- Evelyn Wang: Wait. You are getting fat. And you never call me even though we have a family plan. And it’s free. You only visit when you need something. And you got a tattoo and I don’t care if it’s supposed to represent our family. You know I hate tattoos. And of all the places I could be, why would I want to be here with you? Yes, you’re right. It doesn’t make sense.
- Waymond Wang: Evelyn, stop. That’s enough!
- Joy Wang: Let her finish!
- Evelyn Wang: Maybe it’s like you said. Maybe there is something out there, some new discovery that will make us feel like even smaller pieces of shit. Something that explains why you still went looking for me through all of this noise. And why, no matter what, I still want to be here with you. I will always, always, want to be here with you.
- (Joy starts crying)
- Joy Wang: So what? You’re just gonna ignore everything else? You could be anything, anywhere. Why not go somewhere where your daughter is more than just this? Here, all we get are a few specks of time where any of this actually makes any sense.
- Evelyn Wang: Then I will cherish these few specks of time.
- (Evelyn and Joy embrace)
“Let’s go rescue your silly raccoon.”
- Chad: (crying) You took everything away from me!
- Evelyn Wang: I’m sorry.
- Chad: Raccacoonie taught me so much! I… I didn’t even know… how to boil an egg! He taught me how to spin it on a spatula! I’m useless alone.
- Evelyn Wang: We’re all useless alone. It’s a good thing you’re not alone.
- (Evelyn climbs onto Chad’s shoulders and pulls his hair)
- Evelyn Wang: Let’s go rescue your silly raccoon.
- Jobu Tupaki: Not a single moment will go by without every other universe screaming for your attention. Never fully there. Just a lifetime of fractured moments, contradictions, and confusion. With only a few specks of time where anything actually makes any sense.
“You’re not unlovable.”
- 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.
“Every rejection, every disappointment has led you to this moment. “
- Waymond Wang: (as Alpha Waymond) Every rejection, every disappointment has led you to this moment. Don’t let anything distract you from it.
