A scene from Titanic 1997
Rose DeWitt Bukater

Jack, this is impossible! I can't see you.

Jack Dawson

But I need to talk to you.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

No, Jack. No! Jack, I'm engaged! I'm marrying Cal. I love Cal.

Jack Dawson

Rose, you're no picnic, all right? You're a spoiled little brat even, but under that you're the most amazingly astounding girl - woman, that I've ever known and--

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Jack, I--

Jack Dawson

No wait. Let me try to get this out. You're amazing... I'm not an idiot. I know how the world works. I've got ten bucks in my pocket and I have nothing to offer you, and I know that. But I'm too involved now. You jump, I jump, remember? I can't turn away without knowin' that you'll be alright. That's all I want.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Well, I'm fine. I'll be fine. Really.

Jack Dawson

Really? I don't think so. They've got you trapped, Rose! And you're goin' to die if you don't break free, but maybe not right away, 'cause you're strong, but sooner or later that fire that I love about you, Rose... That fire's gonna burn out.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

It's not up to you to save me, Jack.

Jack Dawson

You're right. Only you can do that.
