Christopher Rodriguez Marquette: Adam Rove

Quotes 

• Adam Rove : You didn't have to heave an eraser at me.

  Joan Girardi : [brushing chalk out of his hair]  Oh... Adam, look...

  [laughing] 

  Joan Girardi : I-I know 19th century Europe can be kind of a snooze, but you were snoring, you know, like the Three Stooges with the little "whee" at the end.

• Adam Rove : I thought maybe you weren't gonna make it again.

  Joan Girardi : [handing him a framed photograph]  I was finishing this. For you. Rodin. He was a sculptor like you. He had to support his family by being a bricklayer. And this is his, um, his girlfriend Rose. His house in Paris is a museum now. It's filled with... all the stuff that he made.

  Adam Rove : I'm not Rodin, Jane.

  Joan Girardi : No. You're Adam Rove. And you have what you asked for. Something real that you can hold in your hands. And it doesn't have to make sense, you know? We don't. That doesn't mean it's not real.
