Virginia Woolf: Do you think I may one day escape?
Vanessa Bell: One day.
Laura Brown: It would be wonderful to say you regretted it. It would be easy. But what does it mean? What does it mean to regret when you have no choice? It's what you can bear. There it is. No one's going to forgive me. It was death. I chose life.
Louis Waters: The day I left him I got on a train and made my way across Europe. I felt free for the first time in years.
Kitty: All my life I could do anything. I could do anything, really. Except the one thing I wanted.
Louis Waters: I know, you think am I still up for this, all this intensity, all those arguments, doors being slammed, well, you know what it's like.
Dan Brown: The thought of this life, that's what kept me going. I had an idea of our happiness.
Laura Brown: It's a terrible thing, to outlive your entire family.
Clarissa Vaughn: Why is everything wrong?
Clarissa Vaughan: Just to let you know I am making the crab thing. Not that I imagine it makes any difference to you.
Richard Brown: Of course it makes a difference. I love the crab thing.
Laura Brown: Baby. Baby, you have to be brave now.
Angelica Bell: Goodbye.
Virginia Woolf: Goodbye, little girl.
Laura Brown: We're baking the cake to show him that we love him.
Richie Brown: Otherwise he won't know we love him?
Laura Brown: That's right.
Leonard Woolf: If I didn't know you better I'd call this ingratitude.
Virginia Woolf: I am ungrateful? You call ME ungrateful? My life has been stolen from me. I'm living in a town I have no wish to live in... I'm living a life I have no wish to live... How did this happen?
Virginia Woolf: Say something, Nessa! Didn't you think I seemed better?
Laura Brown: Obviously, you... feel unworthy. Gives you feelings of unworthiness. You survive and they don't.
Laura Brown: I love you, sweetheart. You're my guy.
Richard Brown: Who is this party for?
Clarissa Vaughan: What are you asking, what are you trying to say?
Richard Brown: I'm not trying to say anything. I think I'm staying alive just to satisfy you.
Virginia Woolf: I can't think of anything more exhilarating than a trip to London.
Clarissa Vaughn: I don't know what's happening to me. I seemed to be unraveling.
Clarissa Vaughn: That is what we do. That is what people do. They stay alive for each other.
