Brian: Being trapped under this boulder with no idea whether I'll manage to crawl out of here is the purest state of being there is.
Elena: Mm-hm.
Brian: What, you don't believe me?
Elena: Maybe you'll discover that some burdens can turn out to be gifts.

Elena: Given the circumstances, I hope that you will change your mind about wanting to be rescued.
Brian: Why would I do that?
Elena: The possibility of death comes to mind.

Young Brian: You married our dream woman, and you blew it?
Brian: I didn't blow it. Relationships are complicated.
Young Brian: You think I don't know that? We're the child of divorce.

Isabel: I need to get a life, and I need to get my nose out of books. And I've tried before, but the world... it's SO MUCH. And books are where I feel safe.
Elena: You don't feel safe in the real world?
Isabel: I feel out of step, like I don't really belong. And I'm worried my whole life is one big 'no, thank you' when I want it to be a 'YES'!

Real life can be intimidating. Getting lost in a good book? I mean, shoot, there's nothing better. Especially if it's romance.

Ruby

I've gone hunting, and I've napped twice. What else is there to do?

Reggie

Margot: Things are a mess with my friends, okay? We had a huge fight and everyone's upset and I was just hoping you could help me figure out a way to fix it.
Elena: That would be nice, wouldn't it? To be able to fix other people's problems.
Margot: Isn't that kind of your specialty?
Elena: I just lay the chess board and everyone has to play their own game.

Ruby: We are having a girls' night. I am not going through my twenties again without getting drunk off of box wine and waking up to a bad manicure.
Elena: Why would anyone want to do that?
Ruby: Because it's fun!

You know, they used to burn women like me. Childless, unmarried, smart. A woman who doesn't need a man to self-actualize is a threat to the status quo. Well, I say, 'Good. Let 'em come for me.'

Camille

And now, I'm turning fifty, and I'm filling out dating profiles. And trying not to drink every day.

Nettie

Margot: Can I feel them?
Cam: Yes!
Margot: Feel like beefsteak tomatoes or something.
Cam: Net, you want a grope?
Nettie: I'm good.

Cam: Well, that makes three free rounds courtesy of my amazing tatas!
Margot: You're going to have to put on a cardigan cause I can't be too wasted to eat dinner.
