Closer quotes

Page 1 of 4

**** me.

Dan

Again? We have to get up at 6.
'Alice: How can one man be so endlessly disappointing?

Dan

That's my charm.

Why do you love her? Is it because she is successful?

Dan

No, it´s because she doesn't need me!

I haven't even seen you for a year.

Dan

Yes you have...

Only because you've stalk me outside my studio.

Dan

I never stalk, I lurk. and when I'm not there, you look for me.

How do you know if you are not there?

Dan

Because I am there, lurking from a distance.

Dan

At six, we stand round the computer and read the next day's page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves...

Such as?

Dan

He was a convivial fellow-meaning he was an alcoholic. He valued his privacy-gay. He enjoyed his privacy-raging queen.

What would my euphemism be?

Dan

She was... disarming.

That's not a euphemism.

Dan

Yes, it is.

Dan

I fell in love with her, Alice.

Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, I can do this, I can give in to this, or I can resist it, and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet there was one.

Dan

I saw this face, this vision... the moment you stepped into the road. It was the moment of my life.

This is the moment of your life.

Dan

You were perfect.

I still am.

Dan

I want Anna back.

She's made her choice.

Dan

I owe you an apology. I fell in love with her. My intention was not to make you suffer.

So where's the apology, ya ****.

Dan

I apologize. If you love her you'll let her go so she can be happy.

She doesn't want to be happy.

Dan

Everybody wants to be happy.

Depressives don't. They want to be unhappy to confirm they're depressed. If they were happy they couldn't be depressed anymore. They'd have to go out into the world and live. Which can be depressing.

Dan

What were you doing in New York?

You know...

Dan

Well no, I don't. What, were you studying?

Stripping. Look at your little eyes...

Dan

I can't see my little eyes.

Dan

When I get back, please tell me the truth.

Why?

Dan

Because I'm addicted to it. Because without it, we're animals. Trust me.
