Sabrina 1954 quotes

You're in love. And I will venture to go a step further, you are unhappily in love.

Sabrina

Does it show?

Very clearly. A woman happily in love, she burns the soufflé. A woman unhappily in love, she forgets to turn on the oven. Am I correct?

Sabrina

Yes. But I'm trying to get over it.

Why try to get over it? You speak of love like it was a bad cough.

Sabrina

He doesn't even know I exist. I might as well be reaching for the moon.

The moon? [laughs] You young people, you are so old-fashioned! Have you not heard? We are building rockets to reach the moon!

But don't you see, Father? Everything has changed!

Nothing has changed. He's still David Larrabee, and you're still the chauffeur's daughter. And you're still reaching for the moon.

Sabrina

No, Father. The moon is reaching for me.

Linus

Sabrina?

Sabrina

Mmm?

Linus

If David were here now, you'd expect him to kiss you, wouldn't you?

Sabrina

Mmm.

Linus

Here's a kiss from David. [They kiss] It's all in the family.

Sabrina Fairchild

I have learned so many things, Father. Not just how to make vichyssoise or calf's head with sauce vinaigrette, but a much more important recipe. I have learned how to live, how to be in the world and of the world, and not just to stand aside and watch. And I will never, never again run away from life, or from love, either.

Linus Larrabee

Paris is for lovers. Maybe that's why I stayed only 35 minutes.
