Chuck Bass

A member of the Upper East Side elite, Chuck Bass comes from an extremely wealthy and influential family - and he takes full advantage of this. Chuck can be devious and manipulative, but he mostly just lives a lavish and wild lifestyle. It is almost surprising that Chuck can also be a loyal friend. Chuck has shown his loyalty to Nate Archibald, his long-time friend, as well as to Blair Waldorf. We have yet to see Chuck's big issue: his father.

Chuck is portrayed much differently in the television series Gossip Girl compared to his character in Cecily von Ziegesar's popular book series. Therefore, even if you didn't like Chuck in the books, you may be a fan of him from the show (like me!). :)

Quotes

Blair: (about Serena) She better not show her face again.
Chuck: I'm actually hoping she will.

Chuck: I'm going to have to tell my parents the hotel they just bought is serving minors.

Chuck: (about Dan) If I knew his name I'd hunt him down and kill him.
Nate: What, cause you kill people now? You gonna strangle him with your scarf?
Chuck: Don't mock the scarf Nathaniel, its my signature.
Nate: Just saying, death by scarf, not that intimidating.

Chuck: As much as I love the speech about not leading material things from a guy who has that much product in this area. This party is about excess, not exposition. Stop talking, start partying. (grabs two girls) Here is something which doesn't need material. (touching the girl's dresses) In fact is about to come off.

Carter: (about playing basketball) Maybe if your Daddy bought you a basketball team instead of a hotel you'd have some skills, uh.
Chuck: Look, this is the Lost Weekend for Juniors, not seniors citizens. Go jump into a volcano.

Nate: Can't you just call it a watch?
Chuck: If it costs more then 10 grand it deserves a proper name.

Blair: What is Nate doing? He's supposed to go find Kati and Is. It's getting late and I'm losing heat.
Chuck: Well you look ravishing. If I were your man, I wouldn't need clues to find you.

Chuck: How do you think I feel? I haven't slept. I feel sick, like there's something in my stomach... fluttering.
Blair: Butterflies? Oh, no, no, no, no. This is not happening.
Chuck: Believe me, no one is more surprised, or ashamed than I am.
Blair: Chuck, you know that I adore all of God's creatures and the metaphors that they inspire. But, these butterflies? Got to be murdered.
