***memorable quotes from movies


*coffee and cigarettes (2004) (dir : jim jarmusch)

- segment #7 "cousins" (this is the scene in which cate blanchett takes dual roles as herself (cate) and her cousin (shelley))

cate ~ oh, i almost forgot. this is for you...
shelley ~ thanks, what's it?
shelley ~ wow, this is really expensive stuff. it must have cost hundreds
shelley ~ cool, thanks, i would use this stuff.
shelley ~ make me look like a movie star, right?
cate ~ cheers.
shelley ~ cheers, gorgeous.
shelley ~ seriously, cate, thanks for seeing me.
cate ~ oh no. thanks for seeing me.
shelley ~ and thanks for all the fancy swag.
cate ~ it's nothing.
shelley ~ it's swag. isn't it?
shelley ~ they probably give you all kinds of free stuff, jewelry, clothes, probably give you cars, right?
cate ~ no, they don't give me cars.
cate ~ they sometimes give me makeup from time to time. but i just thought... i don't know... i just wanted... didn't have time to go shopping.
shelley ~ no, really. it's fine. i mean, it's great. i can use it.
shelley ~ it's just funny, don't you think? when you can't afford something, it's really expensive. and when you can afford it, it's free. kind of backward, don't you think?
cate ~ the world's a bit like that, i guess, in a lot of ways.





*cabin fever (2003) (dir : eli roth)

dennis ~ pancakes!




*le divorce (2003) (dir : james ivory)

charles-henri ~ afterall, you've always said about freedom of individual to live and love. it was only words with you, empty words.
roxeanne ~ yes, it was. i didn't realize that when you really love, there's no freedom at all, except to die.

charlotte ~ i want to tell you, aunt amelie will be at lunch today, uncle edgar's wife. she has been summoned.
isabel ~ what am i supposed to do? fight for him, to say i love him and i'll never him go?
charlotte ~ do you think he's worth it? but of course, your americans are known to be fighters. you might even fight for something that you didn't really want.

isabel ~ to me, a lover, a true lover, would be more important than somebody i happen to sign a marriage certificate with.
olivia ~ lovers are a pastime one tends to outgrow, a hobby finally becomes a bore.
isabel ~ you mean in the end every hero becomes a bore?
olivia ~ emerson.
isabel ~ someone quoted me while he's trying to extricate himself.




*monster (2003) (dir : patty jenkins)

aileen ~ all you need is love and to believe in yourself. nice idea but it doesn't exactly work out that way.

aileen ~ who the f**k knows what god wants. people kill each other every day, and for what? for politics, for religions and they're heroes!!!

aileen ~ love conquers everything; every cloud has its silver lining; fath can move mountains; love will always find a way; everything happens for a reason, for there's liffe, there's hope.
