Ted: We're all time's captives, hostages to eternity. Bobby: Ben Jonson? Ted: No, Boris Pasternak. He was a Russian of no account, I think.

Bobby: Ted, "my father never bought a drunk a drink". What does that mean exactly? Ted: It means he was a good man, he was honest, and he never added to the troubles of the world. Okay? Good night.

Bobby: Don't be afraid. Carol: When we swung out, I... I thought we were coming loose and falling to our doom. Bobby: We're as safe as can be. [Kisses her suddenly] Carol: [Slightly confused] What do you think you're doing? Bobby: Well, I thought you wanted me to. Carol: I just wasn't ready, that's all. Bobby: Okay. [Turns away] Carol: [Pauses] Bobby, do it again. Bobby: No, I better not. You'll tell. Carol: No, it'll be our secret. Hurry, before we go down. [Bobby nervously pauses, not knowing what to do] Bobby, I'm dying here. [Bobby kisses her again. She giggles and puts her head on his shoulder. He puts his arm around her] Thank you, Bobby. That was just the nicest thing. Bobby: "And it will be the kiss by which all others in our life will be judged." Carol: [Looks at him] What? Bobby: I don't know. Sounded better when Ted said it.
