Grace Stewart quotes from The Others (2001)

Nicole Kidman
A line from Grace Stewart

Now children, are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin... This story started many thousands of years ago, and it was all over in just 7 days. All that long long time ago, none of the things we can see now, the sun, the moon, the stars, the earth, the animals and plants, not a single one existed. Only God existed. And so only he could have created them. And he did.

I'm beginning to feel totally cut off from the world.

Grace Stewart

This house is ours, this house is ours.

Grace Stewart

At first, I couldn't understand what the pillows were doing in my hands and why you didn't move, but then I knew. It had happened. I killed my children. I got the rifle, I put it to my forehead and I pulled the trigger, nothing. And I heard your laughter in the bedroom. You were playing with the pillows as if nothing had happened, and I thought the Lord and his great mercy was giving me another chance. Tell them, don't give up, be strong. Be a good mother but now, but now what does this all mean? Where are we?

Grace

So you say you know this house well?

Mrs. Mills

Like the back of my hand, that is assuming the walls haven't sprouted legs and moved in the meantime.

Grace

The only thing that moves here is the light, but it changes everything.

Grace

Whoever took the curtains wants to kill my children.

Mrs. Mills

Now, why do you think the daylight would kill them?

Grace

Are you mad? I already told you my children are photosensitive. THE LIGHT WILL KILL THEM!

Mrs. Mills

Yes, but that was before. The condition could have cleared up.

Anne

Mummy, I won't ask for forgiveness for something I didn't do!

Grace

You told your brother there was someone else in the room!

Anne

There was!

Grace

You're lying!

Anne

I AM NOT!

Grace

Where's my daughter? What have you done with my daughter?

Anne

Are you mad? I am your daughter.

Grace

If you're dead, then leave us in peace. Leave us in peace!

Mrs. Mills

And suppose we do leave you, ma'am, do you suppose that They will?

Grace

Who?

Mrs. Mills

The intruders.

Grace

Charles. You look so different.

Charles

Sometimes I bleed.

Charles

I just came home to say goodbye to my wife and children.

Grace

Where are you going?

Charles

To the front.

Grace

I thought the war was over.

Charles

The war is not over.

Grace

You're not going. You left us once already. YOU CAN'T GO! Why did you go and fight that stupid war that had NOTHING TO DO WITH US? Why didn't you stay like the others did?

Charles

The others surrendered.

Grace

We are all surrendered, what did you expect? What were you trying to prove by going to war? Your place was here with your family. I loved you, but that wasn't enough, was it? You want to leave not because of the war, you want to leave me, remember when you told me "I know a place where no one can bother our children when they are playing"?
