  • S. Ramanujan: What you might see now as ordinary glass, I promise you will soon remain to see a diamond.
  • S. Ramanujan: I owe you so much.
  • G.H. Hardy: No, it is I who owe you.
  • S. Ramanujan: [gazing at the umbrella Hardy is carrying in full sunlight] Sir, do you know something I do not?
  • G.H. Hardy: [sarcastically] Apparently not!
  • [realizing the question referred to his umbrella]
  • G.H. Hardy: Oh! God and I don't exactly see eye-to-eye. So if I prepare for rain, then it won't. So far, so good.
  • [bellowing at the sky]
  • G.H. Hardy: I'm Hardy. And I'm spending the afternoon in the Wren Library!
  • [speaking again to Ramanujan]
  • G.H. Hardy: Now we're sure to have sunshine. Hmph. You see, I am what you call an atheist.
  • S. Ramanujan: No, sir. You believe in God. You just don't think He likes you.
  • S. Ramanujan: There are patterns in everything. The color in light, the reflections in water... in math, these patterns reveal themselves in the most incredible form. It's quite beautiful.
  • S. Ramanujan: Don't you see? An equation has no meaning to me... unless it expresses a thought of God.
  • S. Ramanujan: These steps you want, I do not know how to do!
  • Major MacMahon: Now, how high do I have to go?
  • S. Ramanujan: P of 200 should do. I really can do it.
  • S. Ramanujan: What do you see?
  • Janaki: Sand.
  • S. Ramanujan: Imagine if we could look so closely we could see each grain, each particle. You see there are patterns in everything.
  • S. Ramanujan: You wanted to know how I get my ideas. God speaks to me.
  • G.H. Hardy: We need proofs of your work.
  • S. Ramanujan: But they are right, sir.
  • Janaki: Don't forget me.
  • S. Ramanujan: I could never.
  • S. Ramanujan: Don't you know what I've given up to be here? I have nothing!
