Catherine quotes from Beauty and the Beast

Vincent

Rolley's gift was immense. It was fragile. He became lost to us. I don' think there's ever been a young person in the world with more promise and more desire.

Catherine

Are you sure he wants to see you, Vincent, to be reminded of that terrible loss?

Vincent

He won't come back.

Catherine

You did everything you could.

Vincent

Catherine, I feel as if we'll never see him again.

Catherine

But he knows now, that you'll wait for him, that you love him and Vincent, as long as you do, there's hope.

Vincent

Sometimes I can see it all so clearly. I use to come here when I was a child. Wonder about how it would feel to lay in a meadow under the warm summer or see the night sky full of stars.

Catherine

When I was a girl, we spent our summers at a lake in Connecticut. I had a secret place too, a glen. I would lay there in the tall grass and feel like I was the only person on earth. Safe.

Vincent

Yes

Catherine

And if I sat very still, the deer would walk by and not ever see me. I could almost reach out and touch them. It seemed enchanted. It seems so far from the city, like a different world, but it is only two hours away. I wish you could see it.

Vincent

So do I.

Catherine

If only we could be there.

Vincent

We are there. You are taking me there with your words, showing me.

Catherine

Maybe there is a way.

Vincent

Please...Don't even—

Catherine

All we need is a way to get out of the city and up there safely. A van. We could drive up at night. No one is even there at the lake this time of year. Maybe we could really do it. Vincent, let me try to arrange it. If I can, will you come with me?

Vincent

It is something that I never dared wish for.

Catherine

To go there, to share with you, would mean so much

Vincent

Then we must try.

Vincent

It was a dream, Catherine.

Catherine

No.

Vincent

A beautiful, but impossible dream that we dare not have.

Catherine

But for a moment I thought it would be possible.

Vincent

So did I. If the slightest thing should go wrong, if anyone were to see us, it would ruin everything that we already have.

Catherine

I know. I'm sorry. I should have never asked.

Vincent

I am the one who should apologize. You ask for so little and there is so much I wish to give you, and so much that I can never give you.

Catherine

And so much more than you do. You must believe that, Vincent. Some people don't even have dreams.

Vincent

One day, we will see that lake, O promise you.

Catherine

And until then, we will keep on dreaming.

Vincent

Catherine! It was a dream, a terrible dream. Everything was changed. I could not wake up.

Catherine

It's over now. I'm here.

Vincent

Yes, I thought I had lost you.

Catherine

Vincent, don't you know you could never lose me? We could never lose each other as long as we remember.

Vincent

Remember?

Catherine

Remember love.

Peter

The first time that I met Cathy, she was stark naked.

Catherine

You might also mention that I was upside down and screaming at the top of my lungs.

Peter

[chuckles] And ruin a good story?

Catherine

[waiting for help] Peter!

Peter

Cathy! What on Earth are you doing here?

Catherine

Message to meet a helper.

Peter

You! No wonder you have been so secretive this past year.

Catherine

How long have you been involved?

Peter

Since the beginning...Jacob and I went to medical school together.

Catherine

One thing I learned from Vincent - Nothing is impossible!

Catherine, you should not have come here.

Catherine

How could I stay away?

Pneumonic plague is the most contagious form of this disease. The risk is...

Catherine

It's mine to take.

Dimitri is dead

Catherine

Vincent?

He's all right. He appears to be immune, thank God.

Vincent

I watched you a moment ago with Ellie.

Catherine

My mother used to sing me that song. I have not heard it since. I think she must have made it up.

Vincent

[sighing] You are remarkable.

Catherine

[smile in her voice] I hope you were not talking about my singing.

Vincent

No, I'm not...How much you give to them...to all of us.

Catherine

To be able to give is what all of you have given to me.

Vincent

Perhaps he knew that even when he first received her letter.

Catherine

But he came, anyway.

Vincent

He loved her. He had no choice.

Catherine

Even though he already knew.

Vincent

One either moves toward love or away from it, Catherine. There is no other direction.

Vincent

Sometimes bad things happen in life and all our courage, and all our love can't change them, and then all we can do is cry for those we've lost, and remember them always in our hearts and go on.
