The Saint quotes

[reading Simon's journal aloud]

"I see my angel for the first time. Know my purpose, feel my birth, Hear, at first faintly, then distinctly The sweet strains of our union. Our love heats up the cold universe And gives my tired, desperate hope A reason and season to be revealed."

"We, purified by our kisses, are eternally healed."

After all, you are my personal saint.

You have to be a very good, and usually very dead person to become a saint. And more importantly, you need to work three miracles. Now, get to work.

I'm glad it stopped bleeding. You don't need stitches. We have to disinfect it though.

You really are an angel.

Mmm hmm. [soaking cotton ball in rubbing alcohol and approaching the cut with it] It's gonna hurt.

AHH! [surprising Emma, laughing] Ha ha...! sorry... [serious, realizing it wasn't funny] I'm sorry... Are you alright?

Yeah...

I-I should go.

No... take off your pants.

[beat]

Pardon?

[embarrassed]

I mean your sweater. There's blood on it. I'll wash it.

Very domestic. There's blood on your blouse as well. I'll wash it. [unbuttons her blouse, revealing her hidden cold fusion notes. He tries to remove them, but she doesn't let him] Do you have any wine?

What?

What?

Don't look down. You know who I am?

I'm the thief you tried to cheat. [Takes a phone] And this is your accountant. [Gives phone to Tretiak] Talk to him.

[Tretiak takes the phone backwards]

The phone goes the other way, you moron.

Hello, Tretiak speaking. That money to Zurich, send it now. I said now.Yeah. [Returns phone to Simon]

Thank you. You know what the hardest part about being you is? Pretending to be so bad in bed. [Walks away]

You son of the bitch.

[prepares to pick the lock on the door of a Russian government building, only to find it unlocked]

I love this country.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is August Christopher. I was named for St. Augustine, who coined my favorite phrase, 'Give me chastity and give me constancy, but do not give it yet.'

I invest millions, and you can't make it work?! [throws papers] WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY MONEY?! Do you think [brief pause] it comes so easy? No!

If you think that by giving cold fusion to the world and giving up unimaginable wealth you'll make us happy, you're right.

My name is Bruno Hautenfaust. I was named for a Saint who was a very wealthy man. He had the wine, the women, the songs, the whole bit, and then inexplicably, took a vow of poverty and became a hermit. Ran off to live in the forest, in the nude.

Your work... is very dangerous and alive. And I love your poems; they move me. But that's not who you really are... You're running from your past and your pain. And yet you keep it so... close to you, so you don't have to be afraid of who you are... because you're beautiful.
