Vicky Cristina Barcelona quotes

  • Cristina: I am here to go to bed with you. You're right. So, you're pretty much home free, unless you - blow it.

    Juan Antonio: Blow it?

    Cristina: Yeah.

    Juan Antonio: *Blow* it - you mean ruin the moment?

    Cristina: Yeah.

    Juan Antonio: How would I do that?

    Cristina: I don't know. It could be anything from some inane comment to wearing the wrong kind of shorts. Although, some how, by looking at you, I think you're wearing the right kind of shorts.

  • Juan Antonio: What do you want in life besides a man with the right shorts?

    Cristina: I don't know. I know I'm not going to settle till I find what I'm looking for.

    Juan Antonio: Which is - what?

    Cristina: Something - I want someone, something different, something more, some sort of counterintuitive love.

    Juan Antonio: Meaning?

    Cristina: Meaning - I don't know. I don't know what I want. I only know what I don't want.
