“What, like it’s hard?” — Elle Woods, Legally Blonde
Sometimes, it’s best to give off the impression that you’re not really affected by something, even if it’s a lie. In the film, Legally Blonde, Elle Woods works hard to be accepted into Harvard’s prestigious law school. When she runs into her ex-boyfriend, who asks her how she was able to get in, she simply smiles and quips, “What, like it’s hard?” This answer shows how much Woods’ self-confidence has grown. Harvard was no longer the stuff of dreams, and she deserved to be there just as much as he did.
