Dogville quotes

View Quote I think I should leave. Grace

View Quote Tom: From a business perspective, from a business perspective, your presence in Dogville has become more costly. Because it's more dangerous for them to have you here — not that they don't want you — since they feel there should be some counterbalance, some quid pro quo.
Grace: That sounds like words that the gangsters would use...
Tom: There is also more of an incentive if you don't wanna stay. See, with all those wanted posters hanging around the place, I can hardly think of anywhere else you could hide.

View Quote I'm willing to do whatever it takes. If I have to work harder, longer hours for less pay. Then I'm willing to do that, of course I am. I just wanna be sure that they wouldn't prefer that I left town. Grace

View Quote I have to get some sleep. My days are gonna be much busier now. Grace

View Quote I hate it for you to see me like this. I can't bare that I'm doubting you. I'm sorry. Goodnight. Grace

View Quote Everybody was really against any changes to Grace's working conditions at all when the subject occasionally came up in conversation. Oh, Ben had declared in sympathy that he wouldn't accept any more work than before, and Grace was grateful for that, even if he was a bit drunk when he said so. Busy minutes became busy hours and busy hours became busy days, and irrespective of whether they thought the idea of increasing Grace's services had any fairness and justification to it or not, it didn't seem to make anyone any happier. More to the contrary.

View Quote Vera wants me to picking apples from trees that are barely in the ground. Things take time. That's love, seeing what they need and respecting those needs. If anyone understands that, it's you. At least I thought so. Chuck

View Quote Grace: Don't be upset. I'm sorry if I doubted you. It won't happen again. I promise you.
Chuck: I wouldn't make that promise if I was you. When you fended me off, a thought came into my mind that made me ashamed. A thought that you would hate me for.

View Quote You've really been alone up here, haven't you? You haven't had anyone to comfort you and I should ask you for forgiveness... Still friends? Grace

View Quote I was just resting. Awful lot to do here in Dogville, considering nobody needs anything done. Jason wants to sit on my lap all the time. Grace

View Quote Grace: You can see through it all, can't you. I'll tell you, I'm gonna be asleep in two minutes.
Tom: What if I don't want you to go to sleep?
Grace: I don't think you have a choice tonight.

View Quote Tom: I do love you, Grace.

View Quote We have our whole lives ahead of us. The thing that I love about you is that you don't demand anything of me. That we can just be together. Grace

View Quote In which Dogville bares its teeth
I have been mean to the others too, even baby Achilles. And he's so tiny he can't put up a fight. It's not right... I got it coming to me, I know. I deserve a spanking. Jason

View Quote I don't care how much fun you think it would be. I'm not gonna spank you, Jason. Grace
