Quotes 

  • Meggie Cleary : I loved you Ralph. I never stopped loving you despite everything. Despite the fact that you were never mine. What part of you I got I had to steal. But that part was the best. Because that part was Dane. Dane was your son too. Yours and mine.

    Ralph de Bricassart : It isn't true.

    Meggie Cleary : He was your son Ralph and you couldn't see it. Couldn't see that he was just a more perfect version of you. Couldn't love me enough to see that I never would have gone back to Luke or to any man after you. And now you say it isn't true.

    Ralph de Bricassart : [Breaks down and sobs] 

    Meggie Cleary : [sarcastically]  Poor Ralph. Poor Cardinal de Bricassart.

  • Ralph de Bricassart : [after Dane's funeral]  How will we live without him?

    Meggie Cleary : We will. Your God gathers in the good ones and leaves the living to those of us who fail. Your greedy God. There is no peace with Him.

    Ralph de Bricassart : Meggie, no. No more!

    Meggie Cleary : What can God do to me now? What more do I have to lose?

    Ralph de Bricassart : Your soul, Your heart. Your love. The love you've always had within you despite everything.

    Meggie Cleary : Despite everything but this.

    [closes door on crypt]
