Ryan Gosling (back to the R list / G list)

Dean: I feel like men are more romantic than women. When we get married we marry, like, one girl, 'cause we're resistant the whole way until we meet one girl and we think I'd be an idiot if I didn't marry this girl she's so great. But it seems like girls get to a place where they just kinda pick the best option... 'Oh he's got a good job.' I mean they spend their whole life looking for Prince Charming and then they marry the guy who's got a good job and is gonna stick around.

Dean: In my experience, the prettier a girl is, the more nuts she is, which makes you insane.

Cindy: I like how you can compliment and insult somebody at the same time, in equal measure.

Dean: I didn't want to be somebody's husband and I didn't want to be somebody's dad, that wasn't my goal in life. But somehow it was. I work so I can do that.

Jacob: I'm going to help you rediscover your manhood. Do you have any idea where you could have lost it?

Hannah: I'm here to bang the hot guy who hit on me at the bar.

Jacob: Jacob.

Hannah: Jacob! Sorry, Jacob...

Jacob: Do people still say "bang"?

Hannah: I do. And we're gonna bang!

Jacob: The bags under your eyes looks like Hugh Hefner's ball sack.

Ida Horowicz: Hey, Steve. I'm still your friend, right?

Stephen Meyers: You're my best friend, Ida.

Tom Duffy: Get out, now. Or otherwise...

Stephen Meyers: Otherwise, I'll end up like you?

Tom Duffy: Yeah, you end up being a jaded, cynical asshole, just like me.

Stephen Meyers: You can lie, you can cheat, you can start a war, you can bankrupt the country, but you can't fuck the interns. They get you for that.

Noah: My Dearest Allie. I couldn't sleep last night because I know that it's over between us. I'm not bitter any more, because I know that what we had was real. And if in some distant place in the future we see each other in our new lives, I'll smile at you with joy and remember how we spent the summer beneath the trees, learning from each other and growing in love. The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given me. That's what I hope to give to you forever. I love you. I'll be seeing you. Noah.

Noah: Would you stay with me?

Allie: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fightin'.

Noah: Well that's what we do, we fight... You tell me when I am being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you are a pain in the ass. Which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a 2 second rebound rate, then you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.

Noah: I'm Noah Calhoun.

Allie: So?

Noah: So it's really nice to meet you.

Edmond: Allie, who is this guy?

Allie: I don't know... Noah Calhoun.

Allie: [lying in the middle of the street] What happens if a car comes?

Noah: We die.

Allie: Why didn't you write me? Why? It wasn't over for me, I waited for you for seven years. But now it's too late.

Noah: I wrote you 365 letters. I wrote you everyday for a year.

Allie: You wrote me?

Noah: Yes... it wasn't over, it still isn't over.

Noah: So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday.

Noah: I'm not usually like this, I'm sorry.

Allie: Oh yes you are.

Noah: I could be fun, if you want. I could be pensive, uhh... smart, supersticious, brave? And I, uhh, I can be light on my feet. I could be whatever you want. You just tell me what you want, and I'm gonna be that for you.

Allie: ...You're dumb.

Noah: I could be that.

Noah: Come on, one date, what's it gonna hurt?

Allie: Mmm, I don't think so.

Noah: Well what can I do to change your mind?

Noah: You don't know me, but I know me.

Noah: What am I gonna do in New York?

Allie: Be with me.

Noah: He got the notion into his head that if he restored the old house where they had come that night, Allie would find a way to come back to him. Some called it a labor of love. Others called it something else. But in fact, Noah had gone a little mad.
