• Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : So you see, it's just been a series of .. very bad decisions.

  Quentin : No. you've had very bad luck.

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : I know, I know.

  Quentin : You're like the.. heroine of your own Italian opera.

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : Does that mean I'm doomed?

  Quentin : No. Of course it doesn't. You're too fabulous to be sad. Look where you are. Drink your rose. Best thing about luck is it can always change.

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : Do you really believe that?

  Quentin : No.

• Quentin : You're just here with your assistant, right?

  [Tanya nods] 

  Quentin : Why would he leave you?

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : It's a long story.

  Quentin : No, we have all day. Tell me everything, from the beginning.

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : Well, I was born in San Francisco.

  Quentin : Oh, from the very beginning. Okay.

• Quentin : There's a story attached to that island. There's a house on it. It was owned by a wealthy Swedish family, and the old matriarch was the last one living in it. And there were these powerful local investors, if you know what I mean, who wanted the house, wanted the island. But the old battle-ax wouldn't budge. They made her all kinds of offers. And then one day, her body was found in a heap at the bottom of the rocks.

  Tanya McQuoid-Hunt : They killed her? Oh, my God!

  Quentin : But now, the house is open to the public, so maybe it was worth it. We should go and see it.

• Quentin : Well, I am a huge advocate for distraction. My whole life has been one long distraction.
