Quotes 

• Yuri [to Professor] : I'll be a doctor for others, and a poet for myself.

• Yuri [to Lara] : I wish, I wish I could live two lives. My own, and to see you well and happy. To know you weren't in need of anything. I'm sure you'll find someone you could be happy with. Of course I'd want to knock his teeth out.

• Yuri : [to Lara]  I don't think I could love you so much if you had nothing to regret.

• Yuri : It's all a mystery. Love - the idea that there is someone already there in the world who might hold the key to your whole existence.

• Tonya : It's a poem about love. It's beautiful. Is it about anyone in particular?

  Yuri : Who knows where inspiration comes from.

• Stelnikov/Pasha : But what does that matter? The private life, love, and so on, it's all dead and gone now, don't you agree? We have more important things to do. In any case, it was a way to delusion.

  Yuri : It's the only thing that makes life worth living.

• Misha Gordon : After all this you still write poetry?

  Yuri : [nods] 

  Misha Gordon : What about?

  Yuri : The world, love, particular people, how extraordinary it all is, what a gift it is to be alive in the world and know you're alive.

• Lara : I saw you in the library.

  Yuri : Why didn't you speak to me?

  Lara : Don't tell me you didn't see me.

• Yuri : Do you have any idea how much she loved you?

  Stelnikov/Pasha : What makes you say that?

  Yuri : Because she told me herself.

• Lara : I was hoping you wouldn't remember me. I don't think I made a good impression upon you before.

  Yuri : You made an impression.

• Lara : Listen, you could turn around, walk down the stairs, and go home.

  Yuri : No, I can't.

  Lara : No, I don't want you to.

• Yuri : [to Sasha]  Perhaps we're standing still and it's the world that's moving past us.
