Quote context

[...]

- I want you out of it. I want you to go back to Canada, Betsy.

- Because of Jessica.

- Because of myself. Because I don't want you to be made miserable and unhappy.

- But I want to stay.

- I'm afraid it's not what you want. I want you back in Canada.

- Naturally, as my employer, you have the right to dismiss me.

- Don't, Betsy. You know that isn't what I mean.

- You remember the first night I saw you? You were looking at the sea. You were enchanted. But I felt I had to destroy that enchantment... make you see ugliness and cruelty.

- You were trying to warn me.

- No. I was trying to hurt you.

- It was the same way with Jessica. I had to hurt her. Everything she did or said made me lash out at her. That's why I want you to go.

- You see, Betsy, since you've been here I've seen how fine and sweet things can be between a man and a woman, how love can be calm and good. I'd rather not have that sort of love, than have it and destroy it.

- You want me to leave you?

- That's why I want you to go. It's no good for you to stay so long as I have this fear of myself.

Top rated lines from this movie

But I don't know about zombies, Doctor. Just what is a zombie? -A ghost, a living dead. It's also a drink. -Yes, I tried one once, but there wasn't anything dead about it.

That luminous water, it takes its gleam from millions of tiny dead bodies. The glitter of putrescence.

I walked with a zombie. It does seem an odd thing to say.

Your wife isn't living. She's in a world that's empty of joy or meaning.

There was a woman with a baby. Again and again, I begged her to boil the drinking water. She wouldn't. Then I told her the god Shango would kill the evil spirits in the water if she boiled it. From then on, she boiled the water.
