Quotes 

• Ella's Father : What would you like me to bring you home from abroad? You know, your sisters... uh, stepsisters, have asked for parasols and lace. What... what will you have?

  Cinderella : Bring me the first branch your shoulder brushes on your journey.

  Ella's Father : That's a curious request.

  Cinderella : Well, you'll have to take it with you on your way and think of me when you look at it. And when you bring it back, it means that you'll be with it. And that's what I really want. For you to come back. No matter what.

• Ella's Father : Ella, while I'm away, I want you to be good to your stepmother and stepsisters, even though they may be... trying at times.

  Cinderella : I promise.

  Ella's Father : Thank you. I always leave a part of me behind, Ella. Remember that. A-And-And your... your mother's here, too, though-though you see her not. She's the very heart of this place. And that's why we must cherish this house, always, for her.

  Cinderella : I miss her. Do you?

  Ella's Father : Very much.
