The Blue Lagoon

Paddy: What's in them pictures, Richard? Richard: It's a story about these funny people who get married. There's a saying in each one. Paddy: Give us a look. Richard: Were you ever married, Paddy? Paddy: Seven times. Kids in every port from Clao to Macao. Seventeen at the last count, and never set eyes on a single one of 'em. Slant-eyed little devils, black little devils, even a couple of pink ones like you. And all with my eyes. Richard: Paddy, what's "subjugation"? Paddy: Something I've been trying to avoid all my life.

Paddy: Come back here this instant! This ain't gonna hurt you! Emmeline: We don't wanna go swimming! Richard: We don't have out bathing costumes! Paddy: To Hell with your bathing costumes! You don't wear 'em when you take a bath, do you? Emmeline: This isn't a bathtub! This is the ocean!

Richard: Why are we always fighting so much? Emmeline: I don't know. Richard: That should be our New Year's revolution [he said it wrong] Stop fighting so much. Emmeline: I'll try, but... Richard: But what? Tell me. Emmeline: I don't know what's wrong with me when I say the things I say. I just keep having all these strange thoughts. Richard: What kind of thoughts? Emmeline: Just funny thoughts about you and me. Richard: Tell me. What are they? Emmmeline: Oh, I couldn't. They're just thoughts; they don't mean anything.

Richard: What are you looking at? Emmeline: Your muscles. Richard: What about them? Richard: You're really acting silly lately, Em. Always saying dumb things like that. Always looking at me funny! You're not coming down with something, are you? Don't give it to me.

Richard: There's so many things I don't understand, like why do the fish stop swimming and lie on top of the tide pools after a heavy rain? Why do you hear the waves inside the big shells? Why are all these funny hairs growing on me? I wish a big book with all the answers to every question in the world would drop out of the sky and land in my hands right now. I'd read it till I knew everything. Emmeline: Oh, Richard, you can't know everything. Only God knows everything. Richard: God — He can't find us any better than Santa Claus.

Richard: [runs to her, excitedly] Emmeline! Emmeline! A ship! A ship! [stops, worried] The signal fire you didn't light it! Why didn't you light it?! Why Em, Why? You know how much important me to leave, It's the most important thing in the whole world to me! Emmeline: I know. Richard: First you cry for help, then you throw sticks at me. A ship comes, a ship! First ship we've seen since we've been here, and you let it go by. Just let it go by, well that's it? I've had it! I'm sick and tired of waiting for you to get better, I'm going to San Francisco [he pronounces it San Farisco] without you!
