Stéphanie: Why me?

Stephane: Because everyone else is boring. And because you're different. You don't like me, Stéphanie.

Stephane: It's not fair. She changed exactly the second I started to like her. It's like a big bang. You know, the first instant, it's very small and then the next nano instant, huge infinite. I wish I could travel back to the time when I didn't find her attractive.

Stephane: Shut up, Guy! I thought she was lonely and, and somehow I could help her but... She doesn't need me at all.

Clementine: I wish you had stayed.
Joel: I wish I had stayed to. NOW I wish I had stayed. I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I had... I wish I had stayed. I do.
Clementine: Well I came back downstairs and you were gone!
Joel: I walked out, I walked out the door!
Clementine: Why?
Joel: I don't know. I felt like I was a scared little kid, I was like... it was above my head, I don't know.
Clementine: You were scared?

Clementine: Was it something I said?
Joel: Yeah, you said "so go." With such disdain, you know?
Clementine: Oh, I'm sorry.

Joel: It's okay.
