Vincent quotes from Beauty and the Beast

Vincent

Don't you ever get tired, Pascal?

Pascal

Only when I stop...

I understand the problem enough to know it isn't ours.

Vincent

Does our world exempt its people from moral responsibility.

No, it offers them sanctuary, from an impossible mess...especially those who most need to be protected, like the girl.

Catherine

Vincent...don't go. I need you close.

Vincent

I'll watch over you. Don't worry. Sleep now.

Vincent

Laura is a remarkable person. She feels...everything, deeply. She embraces life. That's how she survives.

Catherine

You're worried about her coming up into the world.

Vincent

Her strength...is her vulnerability.

Catherine

I think she'll be fine, Vincent, I really do...she had a great teacher.

All right...if the head injury were very severe, I wouldn't be lucid. And I am lucid...aren't I?

Vincent

So far.

So far? Well, in this case, I will recite from Virgil on the hour...just to make sure.

Vincent

Then I'll be asleep.

Vincent

Our bond is stronger and deeper than either of us can begin to imagine.

As if both your...destinies were inextricably linked.

Vincent

Yes.

As if your hearts in their search for union could transcend time and space, circumvent the laws of physics and probability.

Vincent

Yes.

Vincent

Mine is not the only voice.

It's the truest, and the strongest.

Promise me you will keep our dream alive.

Vincent

I promise.

It won't be without sacrifice...

The colors. I think I miss colors most of all. They've even begun to fade from my mind's eye...I wish you could have seen the blue of the Pacific under a summer sun...the green of the grass at Ebbott's field. The fall leaves blazing orange and yellow in Vermont.

Vincent

But I have seen them all, Father. No child ever had a better guide. Your words painted pictures that I will never forget. You took me around the world. Twain's Mississippi. Kipling's India. Jack London's Klondike. You made them come alive for me...there aren't many places left to go...

Vincent

Catherine...

Catherine

I have never been so frightened.

Vincent

Your courage saved our lives.

Catherine

I felt like I was losing the best part of myself...I would have done anything...It wasn't courage, Vincent, it was love.

Vincent

Marriage should be a time of joy.

Not in Chinatown!

Poor boy...What can he hope to give her?

Vincent

His heart.

Vincent

Why does it sometimes seem that the world conspires to keep lovers apart?

Catherine

Or brings them together when it is impossible?

Vincent

Chinatown is another world, apart from both of ours.

Dr Wong wants what is best for Lin.

Vincent

Only Lin knows what is best for Lin.

Then you must share the responsibility for OUR decision.

Vincent

This is our home they threaten. We will do what we must.

You don't know them.

Vincent

Chan doesn't know us. They have given us no choice.

None.
