Lost in Translation quotes

Page 1 of 3

Why do you have to point out how stupid everyone is all the time?

Premium Fantasy woman

Oh Mr. Harris! Don't touch me! Mr. Bob Harris! Just rip my stocking!

Bob

Can you keep a secret? I'm trying to organize a prison break. We have to first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and then the country. Are you in or you out?

I'm in.

Bob

I was feeling tight in the shoulders and neck, so I called down and had a Shiatsu massage in my room.

Mmh, that's nice!

Bob

And the tightness has completely disappeared and been replaced by unbelievable pain.

Bob

It gets a whole lot more complicated when you have kids.

It's scary.

Bob

The most terrifying day of your life is the day the first one is born.

Nobody ever tells you that.

Bob

Your life, as you know it... is gone, never to return. But they learn how to walk, and they learn how to talk and you want to be with them. And they turn out to be the most delightful people you will ever meet in your life.

Bob

What are you doing?

My husband's a photographer, so he's here working. I wasn't doing anything so I came along.

Bob

What do you do?

I'm not sure yet, actually.

25 years. That's uh, well it's impressive.

Bob

Well you figure, you sleep one-third of your life, that knocks out eight years of marriage right there. So you're, y'know, down to 16 and change. You know you're just a teenager, at marriage; you can drive it but there's still the occasional accident.

I just don't know what I'm supposed to be.

Bob

You'll figure that out. The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you.

I'm in pain, I got my foot banged up. Wanna see it?

Bob
[to Chef, sarcastically]

How do you say no? Oh, my gosh! When did you do this?

I did it the other day. It hurts, y'know?

Bob

Didn't you feel any pain?

Yeah, it really hurt.

Bob

That toe is almost dead.

Bob
[Charlotte laughs]

I think I got to take you to a doctor. You can't just put that back in the shoe. Well, you either go to a doctor or you leave it here. [regarding Chef] He's smiling. You like that idea? See they love black toe in this country.

So, what are you doing here?

Bob

Uh, a couple of things. Taking a break from my wife, forgetting my son's birthday. And, uh, getting paid two million dollars to endorse a whiskey when I could be doing a play somewhere.

Oh.

Bob

But the good news is, the whiskey works.

You ever switch seats?

Bob

Uh, I like this one. If I fall, someone will notice.

Yeah. So, you having a nice time?

Bob

Can you keep a secret? I'm trying to organize a prison break. I need like, what, an accomplice. We have to first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and then the country. Are you in or you out?

I'm in.

Bob

Good.

I'll go pack my stuff.

Bob

Get your coat.

See ya. [walks away]

Bob

I hope you've had enough to drink. It's gonna take courage.

You know, the first time I saw you, you were wearing a tuxedo at the bar. You were very dashing. I liked the mascara.

Bob
[shakes his head]

But the first time I saw you was in the elevator.

Really?

Bob

You don't remember?

Mmm, I guess you do kind of blend in here, huh? Did I scowl at you?

Bob

No, you smiled.

I did?

Bob

Yes, it was a complete accident. A freak. I haven't seen it since. Just that one time.
