I have learned so many things, Father. Not just how to make vichyssoise or calf's head with sauce vinaigrette, but a much more important recipe. I have learned how to live, how to be in the world and of the world, and not just to stand aside and watch. And I will never, never again run away from life, or from love, either.

Being murdered in cold blood is not nonsense. Why don’t you try it sometime?

Life isn't always what one likes, is it?

Only one is a wanderer; two together are always going somewhere.

The difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves, but how she is treated.

Indiscreet (1958) dir. Stanley Donen

This is why you were chosen. Because the strong man who has known power all his life, may lose respect for that power, but a weak man knows the value of strength, and knows… compassion.

Sometimes angels rush in where fools fear to tread.
