Guido Contini: Hold on to me, mama. Don't let me wake from this.
Reynolds Woodcock: Marriage would make me deceitful and I don't ever want that.
Johanna: Where have you gone, Reynolds. There's nothing I can say to get your attention aimed back at me, is there?

Tomas: You can sleep. Sleep in my arms. Like a baby bird. Like a broom among brooms... in a broom closet. Like a tiny parrot. Like a whistle. Like a little song. A song sung by a forest... within a forest... a thousand years ago.
