A scene from Titanic 1997
Rose DeWitt Bukater

Mr. Dawson, I--

Jack Dawson

Just call me Jack.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Jack, I want to thank you for what you did. Not just for pulling me back, but your discretion.

Jack Dawson

You're welcome.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Look, I know what you must be thinking. "Poor little rich girl, what does she know about misery?"

Jack Dawson

NO! No, that's not what I was thinking. What I was thinking was, what could've happened to this girl to make her think she had no way out.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

It was everything. It was my whole world and all the people in it, and the intertia of my life. Plunging ahead and me powerless to stop it. [shows Jack her engagement ring]

Jack Dawson

God, look at that thing! You would've gone straight to the bottom.
