Only Lovers Left Alive
Movie Quote Quiz

Eve: How can you've lived for so long and still not get it? This self obsession is a waste of living. It could be spend in surviving things, appreciating nature, nurturing kindness and friendship, and dancing. You have been pretty lucky in love though, if I may say so.

Eve: I'm gonna get you that present. Give me all your money, baby.

Eve: Tell me now about entanglement. Einstein's spooky action at a distance. Is it related to quantum theory?
Adam: Hm. No I mean, it's not a Theory it's proven.
Eve: How does it go again?
Adam: When you separate an entwined particle and you move both parts away from the other, even at opposite ends of the universe, if you alter or affect one, the other will be identically altered or affected.
Eve: Spooky. Even at opposite ends of the universe?
Adam: Yeah.

Christopher Marlowe: I wish I'd known him when I wrote Hamlet.

Adam: Please, feel free to piss in my garden.

Eve: I'm sure she'll be very famous.
Adam: God, I hope not. She's way too good for that.

Adam: They only learn when it's too late.

Adam: Just goes to show... we really don't know shit about fungi.

Adam: Look at what she did to my Gibson.

Adam: I just feel like all the sand is at the bottom of the hour glass or something.

Eve: So this is your wilderness. Detroit.
Adam: Everybody left.
Eve: What's that?
Adam: It's the Packard plant, where they once built the most beautiful cars in the world. Finished.
Eve: But this place will rise again.
Adam: Will it?
Eve: Yeah. There's water here. And when the cities in the South are burning, this place will bloom.

Factual error: Tilda Swinton requests a flight from Detroit to Tangier, Morocco, but it must be an all-night flight since she and Tom Hiddleston are vampires. They end up accepting a flight connecting through Madrid. Flying west to east, it would be impossible. If they leave their home at sunset, say 6 p.m. Detroit time, and take off around 8 p.m. Detroit time, it is already 1 a.m. In Spain. Toss in the travel time and they will be landing in Madrid in the early morning, which would kill them.
