During 2017, many treasured and iconic television shows completed their run. Bones, Girls, Grimm, Orphan Black, Teen Wolf, and Vampire Diaries all ended.
But the one show that met its end in 2017 that truly broke my heart was Pretty Little Liars. Yes, the plotlines were out of control. Yes, the finale was less than perfect. Yes, the holes in the plot were big enough for an elephant to fall in them. Nevertheless, I'm was and still am obsessed. PLL's dialogue was always on point. It's quick, funny, dramatic and heartbreaking.
To keep you from crying since there are no new episodes, here are the best lines from your favorite liars.
1. "The rich girls steal, the pretty girls lie, the smart girls play dumb and the dumb girls are trying to be all of the above"- Caleb Rivers
Caleb dropping truth bombs all over Rosewood
2. "You're leaving because it's easier to walk away than to fight for what you really want"- Aria Montgomery
Ezria Forever
3. "Sometimes the best thing you can do is take a step back and give yourself a chance to breathe"- Ella Montgomery
Wise words from Wine Mom #1, Ella Montgomery
4. "Everyone's got a life that no one knows about"- Hanna Marin
Hanna may not be the smartest of the liars, but she definitely has her moments.
5. "We all get it wrong sometimes"- Aria Montgomery
Everybody makes mistakes and the liars are no exception.
6. "People aren't dolls, you can't just play with them and then put them back in the box"- Ella Montgomery
Thanks for the good advice, Ella but we just want to know how the Wine Moms got out of the basement
7. "It's immortality, my darlings"- Alison Dilaurentis
Leave it to Ali to talk in existential riddles at 15.
8. "Ding dong the bitch is dead"- A
As terrifying as A's threats were, you have to admit, some were really funny.
9. "I may not be able to see, but I can smell a bitch a mile away"- Jenna Marshall
Jenna hated the liars (and had a good reason) but she helped them in the end. Maybe she isn't that bad.
10. "I have a masters degree in English literature, there's nothing I can't handle"- Ezra Fitz
You sure about that, Mr. Fitz? Dead bodies and police evasion aren't usually part of the curriculum.
11. "Please, Jenna can't hear us. She's blind"- Hanna Marin
Best. Line. Ever.
12. "One eye is bigger than the other. You look like a strung out Powerpuff girl!"- Hanna Marin
You can always count on Hanna for some comic relief
13. "You know what they say about hope; it breeds eternal misery"- Spencer Hastings
And as Hanna's polar opposite, you can count on Spencer for a harsh dose of reality.
14. "You're small, but you are mighty"- Spencer Hastings
Little people can do big things, just look at team Sparia
15. "I can't go around without a phone. That's like going around without a brain... or shoes"- Hanna Marin
I mean, she's not wrong...
16. That's a very pretty dress. But you should know it gives you back fat."- Caleb Rivers

17. "Don't look at me. I'm ready to hang a sign 'Bitch can see!'"- Aria Montgomery
I know it was meant to be serious but in all 7 seasons, I don't think I've ever laughed harder at a line
18. "You may be a dude, but you're still a bitch"- Hanna Marin
Hanna is fierce, feisty and not afraid to speak her mind. Don't mess with this chick
19. "We are your friends, not your punching bags"- Aria Montgomery
Sometimes we take our friends for granted and someone to snap us back in place
20. "I'm back, bitches. And I know everything -A"
Let's be honest, even now A is never really gone for good.
While PLL is over, the characters, insane plot twists and quick-witted lines will live on. Don't forget, if you're missing your favorite little liars, there's always Netflix!
