Top rated lines from this movie

It was his story against mine, but of course I told my story better.
I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.
A good love scene should be about something else besides love. For instance, this one. Me fixing grapefruit, you sitting over there dopey, half asleep. Anyone looking at us could tell we were in love.
Oh, what a grip. That's from counting money.
Oh, I love a picnic. Acres and acres of sand, and all of it in your food.
