- Ned Kendall: A man can live his whole life and never cop to his greatest achievement...
- [In Australian English, to 'cop to' something, means to 'realize' it or 'become aware' of it]
- Sally Kendall: You want a cuppa?
- Toni: Do you like being everyone's slave?... I'm sorry... You just do everything for everyone.
- Sally Kendall: No, you're right. Tea's there. You can make it yourself.
- Toni: I'm not saying you shouldn't... Don't you get sick of it, though?
- Sally Kendall: Sick of what?
- Toni: Well, fuck, if it was me, I'd leave the bastards to get on with it.
- Sally Kendall: Probably bloody kill each other.
- Toni: [Imitating Scarlett O'Hara] Well, Frankly, my dear, I'd risk it... Hmm.
- Toni: What?
- Ned Kendall: You sound like a fucking tart.
- Toni: That's because you fuck me like one, you shit!
- Toni: How come you never look at me?
- Ned Kendall: What?
- Toni: How come you never look at my face when we fuck?
- Ned Kendall: I love looking at you. You're beautiful.
- Toni: Do you love me?
- Ned Kendall: I'm marrying you, aren't I?
- Toni: You're such a shit. What kind of answer is that?
- Ned Kendall: Toni, Toni, Toni, Toni. Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa. Come here. Look at me. Look at me. Look at me. Of course I love you. You silly old cow, I love you.
- Toni: Do you promise?
- Ned Kendall: Yes.
