Rose: I love you, Jack. Jack: [shivering] Don't you do that... don't you say your goodbyes... Not yet... do you understand me? Rose: I'm so cold... Jack: Listen, Rose... you're gonna get out of here... and you're gonna go on... and you're gonna make lots of babies... and you're gonna watch them grow. You're gonna die an old, an old lady warm in her bed... not here... not this night... not like this do you understand me? Rose: I can't feel my body. Jack: Winning that ticket, Rose, was the best thing that ever happened to me... It brought me to you... and I'm thankful for that, Rose... I'm thankful... [shivering gets worse] Jack: You must? you must do me this honor... you must promise me that you'll survive... that you won't give up... no matter what happens... [shivering worsens even more] Jack: No matter how hopeless... Promise me now, Rose... and never let go of that promise. Rose: I promise... Jack: [whispers] Never let go... Rose: I'll never let go, Jack... I'll never let go.

Jack: Don't do it! Rose: Stay back! Don't come any closer! Jack: Come on, just give me your hand. I'll pull you back over. Rose: No, stay where you are! I mean it! I'll let go! Jack: No, you won't. Rose: What do you mean, "No I won't"? Don't presume to tell me what I will and will not do, you don't know me! Jack: Well, you would've done it already. Rose: You're distracting me! Go away! Jack: I can't. I'm involved now. If you let go, I'm gonna have to jump in there after you. Rose: Don't be absurd. You'd be killed! The fall alone would kill you. Jack: It would hurt. I'm not saying it wouldn't. To tell you the truth I'm a lot more concerned about that water being so cold. Rose: How cold? Jack: Freezing. Maybe a couple degrees over. You ever been to Wisconsin? They have some of the coldest winters around. I grew up there, near Chippewa Falls. Me and my dad would go ice fishing. Ice fishing is where you... Rose: I know what ice fishing is! Jack: Sorry. You just seemed like kind of an indoor girl. Anyway, I fell through some thin ice and I'm telling ya, water that cold, like right down there, it hits you like a thousand knives stabbing you all over your body. You can't breathe. You can't think. At least not about anything but the pain. Which is why I'm not looking' forward to jumping in there after you. But like I said, I don't have a choice. I guess I'm kinda hoping you'll come back over the railing and get me off the hook. Rose: You're crazy... Jack: That's what everybody says. But with all due respect miss, I'm not the one hanging over the back of a ship here. Give me your hand. You don't want to do this. I'm Jack Dawson. Rose: Rose De Witt Bukater. Jack: I'm gonna have to get you to write that down.

Lewis Bodine: We never found anything on Jack... there's no record of him at all. Old Rose: No, there wouldn't be, would there? And I've never spoken of him until now... Not to anyone... Not even your grandfather... A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets. But now you know there was a man named Jack Dawson and that he saved me... in every way that a person can be saved. I don't even have a picture of him. He exists now... only in my memory.

Jack: Rose, you're no picnic, all right? You're a spoiled little brat, even, but under that, you're the most amazingly, astounding, wonderful girl, woman that I've ever known... Rose: Jack, I... Jack: No, let me try and get this out. You're ama - I'm not an idiot, I know how the world works. I've got ten bucks in my pocket, I have nothing to offer you and I know that. I understand. But I'm too involved now. You jump, I jump remember? I can't turn away without knowing you'll be all right... That's all I want. Rose: Well, I'm fine... I'll be fine... really. Jack: Really? I don't think so. *They've* got you trapped, Rose. And you're gonna die if you don't break free. Maybe not right away because you're strong but... Sooner or later that fire that I love about you, Rose... That fire's gonna burn out... Rose: It's not up to you to save me, Jack. Jack: You're right... Only you can do that.

Molly Brown: Who came up with the name Titanic? Was it you, Bruce? Ismay: Yes, actually. I wanted to convey sheer size, and size means stability, luxury, and above all, strength. Rose: Do you know of Dr. Freud, Mr. Ismay? His ideas of the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest to you. Ruth: [whispering] What's gotten into you? Rose: Excuse me. [she leaves] Ruth: I must apologize. Ismay: Freud? Who is he? is he a passenger?

Jack: That's what everybody says, but with all due respect miss, I'm not the one hanging off the back of a ship here.

Old Rose: It's been 84 years, and I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.

Cal Hockley: God, not those finger paintings again. They certainly were a waste of money. Rose: The difference between Cal's taste in art and mine is that I have some. They're fascinating. It's like being inside a dream or something. There's truth but no logic.

Jack: Well, yes, ma'am, I do... I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count.

Smith: Clear. Second Officer Charles Herbert Lightoller: Yes. I don't think I've ever seen such a flat calm. Smith: Like a mill pond, not a breath of wind. Second Officer Charles Herbert Lightoller: It will make the bergs harder to see with no breaking water at the base. Smith: Hmm. Well, I'm off. Mantain speed and heading, Mr. Lightoller.

Rose: I don't see what all of the fuss is about. It doesn't look any bigger than the Mauritania. Cal Hockley: You can be blasé about some things, Rose, but not about Titanic. It's over a hundred feet longer than the Mauritania and far more luxurious.

Old Rose: 1,500 people went into the sea... when Titanic sank from under us... there were twenty boats floating nearby... and only one came back. *One*. Six were saved from the water... myself included. *Six*. Out of 1,500. Afterward, the 700 people in the boats had nothing to do but wait... wait to die... wait to live... wait for an absolution... that would never come.

Bert Cartmell: It's a big boat, huh? Cora Cartmell: Daddy, it's a ship! Bert Cartmell: You're right.

Ismay: So you've not lit the last four boilers then? Smith: No, I do not see the need. We are making excellent time. Ismay: The press knows the size of Titanic, now I want them to marvel at her speed, too. We must give them something new to print. And the maiden voyage of Titanic must make headlines!

Ruth: So this is the ship they say is unsinkable. Cal Hockley: It is unsinkable. God himself could not sink this ship.

Ruth: Tell us of the accommodations in steerage, Mr. Dawson. I hear they are quite good on this ship. Jack: The best I've seen, ma'am. Hardly any rats.

Jack: Wait, just let me try and get this out. Rose you're... [pause] Jack: I'm not an idiot. I know how the world works. I've got ten bucks in my pocket, I have nothing to offer you and I know that. But I'm too involved now. You jump, I jump, remember? I can't turn away without knowing you'll be all right. Rose: Well, I'm fine. I'll be fine. Really. Jack: Really? I don't think so. They've got you trapped Rose and you're gonna die if you don't break free. Maybe not right away because you're strong, but soon, that fire that I love much about you Rose, that fire's going to burn out. Rose: It's not up to you to save me Jack. Jack: I know, only you can do that.

Thomas Andrews: The pumps will buy you time, but minutes only. From this moment on, no matter what we do, Titanic will founder. Ismay: But this ship can't sink! Thomas Andrews: She is made of iron, sir. I assure you, she can. And she *will*. It is a mathematical certainty.

Tommy Ryan: That's typical. First class dogs come down here to take a shit. Jack: That's so we know where we rank in the scheme of things. Tommy Ryan: Like we could forget.

Ruth: Will the lifeboats be seated according to class? I hope they aren't too crowded. Rose: Oh mother, shut up! Don't you understand? The water is freezing and there aren't enough boats. Not enough by half. Half the people on this ship are going to die. Cal Hockley: Not the better half. Molly Brown: Come on Ruth, first-class seats are right up here. Cal Hockley: You know, it's a pity I didn't keep that drawing. It'll be worth a lot more by morning. Rose: You unimaginable bastard!

Cal Hockley: You're a good liar. Jack: Almost as good as you.

Old Rose: I saw my whole life as if I had already lived it. An endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches. Always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter. I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back, no one who cared... or even noticed.
48
Rose: I know what you must be thinking. "Poor little rich girl, what does she know about misery?" Jack: No, no, that's not what I was thinking. What I was thinking was, what could've happened to this girl to make her feel she had no way out?

Jack: I don't know about you, but I intend on writing a strongly worded letter to the White Star Line about all of this.

[Looking at a salvaged hand mirror] Old Rose: This was mine. How extraordinary! And it looks the same as when I last used it... The reflection's changed a bit.
