I coudn’t care a damn!
What’s your next class before this?
Can you repeat that for the 2nd time around once more?
Hello, my brother joey is out of town, would you like to wait?
Don’t touch me not!
You! you’re not a boy anymore! You’re a man anymore!
Hello? For a while. Please hang yourself.
We are lovers. Not fighters.
Don’t judge me! I’m not a book!
Why should I have a calling card? I’m not a call girl!
My brother is not a girl; he’s a gentleman.
Yung STD, baka sa maruming toilet lang niya nakuha yan.
Eh, ikaw ba naman, durugin ang ari mo…Pag di ka naman manutok ng baril.
I won’t stoop down to my level.
Hello? Bulag ka ba? Bingi ka ba? Are you dep?
I don’t eat meat. I’m not a carnival.
You! you’re not a boy anymore! You’re a man anymore!

Still on her brother Joey: “Kapatid ko pa rin siya. We are one and the same.”
“Sumasakit ang migraine ko.”
On her father, the late Director Artemio Marquez before he died: “Ang tatay ko ang only living legend na buhay!”
When asked on S-Files if her present husband, Adam Lawyer, is her Mr. Right:”Period na talaga; wala nang exclamation point.”
When asked for a message to her daughter who was reportedly abused by their houseboy: “Don’t worry little angel, big angel is here.”
On what they should do to the houseboy who molested her daughter: “He should be put behind bar.”
Backstage during a noontime show, after watching Nikki Valdez’ dance number. “Nikki, you’re so galing! You should go to the States. You will sell hotcakes.”
“You can fool me once, you can even fool me twice, you can even fool me thrice. But you can never fool me four”
After giving birth, and an interview on The Buzz: “My answers have been prayered!”
“Hindi ba kayo naawa sa kapatid ko…sa mga kwento nya? Di ba kayo na-PERSUAVE ng mga kwento niya? Hindi si Joey ang tipong mambubugbog ng babae…talaga lang malapit siya sa mga gulo…PRO-ACCIDENT kasi siya eh.
Boy Abunda: O Melanie, paano na ang showbiz career mo ngayong magmo-Mormon ka na? Melanie: Ah okay lang ‘yon Boy, kasi matagal na rin akong SEMI-RETARDED.
(before Christmas) “Well, I want to spend my holidays with my family most probably out of place.”
