Carol Aird: Harge, I want you to be happy. I didn't give you that. I failed you. We both could have given more, but... we gave each other Rindy. And that is the most breathtaking, the most generous, of gifts.
Carol Aird: Is that what you want to be? A photographer?
Therese Belivet: I think so. If I have any talent for it.
Carol Aird: Isn't that something other people let you know you have? All you can do is keep working. Use what feels right. Throw away the rest.
Carol Aird: I should have said "Therese, wait "
Carol Aird: Just when you think it can't get any worse, you run out of cigarettes.
Carol Aird: I'm going away for awhile.
Therese Belivet: When? Where?
Carol Aird: Wherever my car will take me. West. Soon. - And, I thought, perhaps, you might want to come with me. - Would you?
Therese Belivet: Yes. Yes, I would.
Carol Aird: And do you live alone, Therese Belivet?
Therese Belivet: I do. Well, there's Richard, he'd like to live with me. Oh no, it's nothing like that, I mean he'd like to marry me.
Carol Aird: I see. And would you like to marry him?
Therese Belivet: Well, I barely even know what to order for lunch.
Therese Belivet: You don't understand.
Richard Semco: Oh, I do. I understand completely. You're in a trance.
Therese Belivet: I'm wide awake! I've never been more awake in my life! Why don't you leave me alone.
Harge Aird: Dammit! I put nothing past women like you, Carol.
Carol Aird: You married a woman like me.
Carol Aird: You miss Richard?
Therese Belivet: No. I haven't thought about him all day. Or of home, really.
Harge Aird: You smell good.
Carol Aird: You're drunk.
Fred Haymes: Why don't you seat?
Carol Aird: Why is it people think you take bad news better if you're sitting down?
Richard Semco: What? You've got one helluva crush on this woman, is what. You're like a school girl.
Therese Belivet: I do not! I just like is all. I'm fond of anyone I can really talk to.
Richard Semco: Nice.
Therese Belivet: How many times have you been in love?
Richard Semco: Never - until you.
Therese Belivet: Don't lie. You told me about those other two girls.
Richard Semco: Come on, they were - I had sex with them. It's not the same thing.
Therese Belivet: Meaning I'm different because - we haven't gone all the way?
