• Laurence Alia : So... will you still love me?

  Julienne Alia : Are you becoming a woman or an idiot?

• Laurence Alia : Our love wasn't 'safe,' but it wasn't dumb. What is it you want, Fred? What is it? A child? A house? I can give you that. I'll change.

• Journaliste : What are you looking for Laurence Alia?

  Laurence Alia : I'm looking for a person, who understands my language and speaks it. A person who, without being a pariah, will question not only the rights and the value of the marginalized, but also those of the people who claim to be normal.

  [English subtitled version] 

  Laurence Alia : [showing her a metal pin]  Excuse me, miss. This may sound a little stupid, but... the guys over there made this. If you take it, I'll get $20.

  Fred Bellair : [taking and looking at the pin]  What is it? Some kind of cloud?

  Laurence Alia : [laughing under his breath]  No, it's a butterfly. But the fact you think it's a cloud minimizes my pleasure.

  Fred Bellair : You just made twenty bucks.

  Laurence Alia : Okay, here's the deal. $10 for gas, and $10 to buy you a drink after wrap. Hm? Deal?

  Fred Bellair : [thinking about it for a few seconds before offering her hand to shake]  Fred Bellair.

  Laurence Alia : [shaking her hand]  Laurence Alia.

  Fred Bellair : Laurence who?

  Laurence Alia : Alia. But... it's Laurence, anyways.
