Miranda Priestly: “…But I was very very impressed by how intently you tried to warn me. I never thought I would say this, Andrea, but I really, I see a great deal of myself in you. You can see beyond what people want, and what they need and you can choose for yourself.”
Andy Sachs: “I don't think I'm like that. I couldn't do what you did to Nigel, Miranda. I couldn't do something like that.”
Miranda Priestly: “You already did. To Emily.”
Andy Sachs: “That's not what I... no, that was different. I didn't have a choice.”
Miranda Priestly: “No, no, you chose. You chose to get ahead. You want this life. Those choices are necessary.”
A very enjoyable piece of story-telling, Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestley and Anna Hathway’s Andrea Sachs are the chief characters. Post the movie I wondered what it would be like to be Miranda and Andrea. Would I ever have the guts to give something different a try – the way Andrea does – and then quit it? What are the choices I am going to make in order to last in the corporate world for as long as Miranda does?
