Alex: I can't see why my having an affair with someone on and off is any worse that being *married* for a course or two at mealtimes. Mrs. Greville: But darling... you keep throwing in your hand because you haven't got the whole thing. There *is* no whole thing, my poppet. You have to make it work.

Daniel: When you're at school and you want to quit, people say 'You're going to hate it out in the world.' Well, I didn't believe them and I was right. When I was a kid, I couldn't wait to be grown up, and they said 'Childhood is the best time of your life.' Well, it wasn't. And now, I want his company and they say, 'What's half a loaf? You're well shot of him'; and I say 'I know that.... but I miss him, that's all' and they say 'He never made you happy' and I say 'But I am happy, apart from missing him. You might throw me a pill or two for my cough.' [pauses, smiles] Daniel: All my life, I've been looking for somebody courageous, resourceful. [pause, thinks] Daniel: He's not it... but something. We were something. [pause] Daniel: I only came about my cough.
