Closer

Here are some excerpts from the movie "Closer".


1.
Anna: I'm sorry you're...

Larry: Don't say it! Don't you fucking say "you're too good for me" I am, but don't say it.
2.
Alice: Where is this "love"? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

3.
Larry: You don't know the first thing about love because you don't understand compromise.
4.

Dan: You've ruined my life.
Anna: You'll get over it.
5.
Dan: I love her because she doesn't need me!

6.
Dan: What's so great about the truth? Try lying for a change - it's the currency of the world.

7.
Anna: Why did you swear eternal love when all you wanted was excitement!? Love bores you.

Dan: No, it disappoints me.
8.
Alice: It's the only way to leave: 'I don't love you anymore, good-bye.'

Dan: Supposing you do still love them?
Alice: You don't leave.
Dan: You've never left someone you still love?
Alice: No.
9.
Alice: You won't, you'll miss me. No one will ever love you as much as I do.

Dan: I know.
Alice: Why isn't love enough? I'm the one who leaves. I'm supposed to leave you. I'm the one who leaves.
10.
Alice: I don't love you anymore.

Dan: Look...I'm sorry...
Alice: No, I've changed the subject. I don't love you anymore.
Dan: Since when?
Alice: Now...just now. I don't want to lie and I can't tell the truth so it's over.
Dan: Alice...don't leave me.
Alice: I've left...I've gone. 'I don't love you anymore. Good-bye.'
11.
Dan: I fell in love with her.

Alice: Oh, like as if you have no choice. There's a moment. There's always a moment. I can do this. I can give in to this or I can resist it. I do not know when your moment was but I bet you know there was one.

Love is an accident …

waiting to happen.

Desire is a stranger …

you think you know.

Intimacy is a lie …

we tell ourselves.

Truth is a game …

you play to win.

If you believe in love at first sight, you never stop looking.
