Quotes

Close My Eyes

Edit
  • Sinclair: We spend too much time thinking about the end of the world. It isn't going to happen. Today. I promise you. Not before lunch.
  • Sinclair: I knew there was something extraordinary between you two, something which had to be purged. I don't want to know. There is a limit beyond which I can't go.
  • Sinclair: Other people's children are wonderful, aren't they?
  • Sinclair: These ashtrays are interesting, they're ridiculously large. People proclaim their importance in such a crass fashion. What will historians make of these ashtrays?
  • Richard: You're interested in everything, Sinclair.
  • Sinclair: These lists, ashtrays, this secretary here, you.
  • Richard: Come into the church and feel no guilt... come on, I dare you!
  • Natalie: I knew you'd want this to end with one of us getting killed. Trust you to get both of us nearly killed.
  • Richard: And to think, we didn't even really like each other as kids.
  • Natalie: Oh, go on, you can read it, I can see you edging toward it.
  • Sinclair: Just one chapter. It's the only thing that shuts me up.
  • Sinclair: How's the food?
  • Natalie: Food? You would ask that.
  • Richard: You wanted to be artistic.
  • Natalie: I'm not artistic.
  • Richard: But you wanted to be.
  • Natalie: I love you.
  • Sinclair: Of course you do.
  • Natalie: Do you love me?
  • Sinclair: Of course I do.
  • Natalie: I thought I heard voices.
  • Richard: Just my secretary, we're alone together.
  • Natalie: You're probably screwing her.
  • Richard: As a matter of fact I am.
  • [first lines]
  • Natalie: You're late.
  • Richard: Sorry, it was unavoidable, trains on Sunday, you know what they're like.
  • Natalie: Unavoidable? I don't believe it. I've eaten all the food.
  • Richard: You've eaten all the food? Now that's serious.
  • Sinclair: I do believe, I have to confess, in spending money , not just hoarding it.
  • Richard: [to Sinclair's boatman] Is he going to kill me, do you think?
  • Richard: Being single...
  • Natalie: What about it?
  • Richard: It's not as simple as it used to be.
  • Jessica: I don't believe this, Richard, the vanity... now get out of here before I lose my temper.
  • Richard: But I was just asking you out.
  • Jessica: I thought you were meant to be something of an expert, you seem decidely rusty to me.
  • Richard: Rusty, certainly not, what's the answer?
  • Jessica: No. No! I've never seen anybody so obviously thinking about another...
  • Richard: Another what?
  • Jessica: I was going to say a woman, but it's more likely to be a 15-year old girl, isn't it? Who is she? Are you at a loose end tonight because of her? Or are you trying to forget her?
  • Sinclair: She's lying to me, all the time. When people lie to you, you suddenly can't think of anything else.
  • Richard: You've spotted little signs, have you?
  • Sinclair: ...little signs... didn't need to. She's been carrying around a giant placard saying, "I've been fucking somebody else."
  • Sinclair: Something tells me its the end of the party.
  • Sinclair: Those fires, a typical end to summer.
  • Natalie: I certainly wouldn't call this summer typical.
  • Richard: She went for a job, he was the boss. She didn't get the job, she got him.
  • Natalie: I have to get permission, I'll have to ask my 14 year-old boss.
