Nick Vaughan: Oh, the cops are no help!
-
Brooke Dalton: Running is easy.
-
Nick Vaughan: God. Why is it that any one decision always seems too small to be the biggest decision of your life.
Brooke Dalton: I don't know but sometimes you have to just make the choice and jump.
-
Harry: There is no perfect. There will always be struggle. You just need to choose who you wanna struggle with.
-
Brooke Dalton: It's possible, isn't it? It's possible that you could meet somebody who's perfect for you even though you're committed to somebody else.
Nick Vaughan: No, no, see, I think if you're committed to somebody, you don't allow yourself to find perfection in someone else.
-
Nick Vaughan: We love who we love. Sucks.
-
Harry: You can't allow the ones you love to determine how you love.
-
Nick Vaughan: And at the end of the night, you're gonna want to say some things, but don't. Don't ruin it. It's nothing she doesn't already know. Just give her a kiss. Wish her good luck. And, uh... thank her. Thank her for showing you that you can love more than one person in this life.
-
Brooke Dalton: What if he loves her more?
Nick Vaughan: I'd say that's a long shot.
Brooke Dalton: It's possible isn't it? It's possible that you could meet somebody who's perfect for you even though you're committed to somebody else.
Nick Vaughan: I think if you are committed to somebody, you don't allow yourself to find perfection in someone else.
-
Brooke Dalton: I don't have to know my future. I'm going to live it anyway.
-
Brooke Dalton: Nick...
Nick Vaughan: Yeah?
Brooke Dalton: I'm sorry about all those things I said earlier. I guess I got a little defensive.
Nick Vaughan: Define defensive.
Brooke Dalton: Um... Abusive. Cruel.
Nick Vaughan: Complex.
Brooke Dalton: Ok.
-
Brooke Dalton: How can one of the worst nights of my life also be one of the best?
-
Nick Vaughan: You can read and add, how are you a *cab* driver?
-
Tyler: I hope I was helpful.
Nick Vaughan: Extremely.
Brooke Dalton: I think he wants gratitude.
Nick Vaughan: Group hug? Big kiss?
Tyler: I believe the words were handsome gratuity.
Nick Vaughan: Right. You take credit cards?
-
Danny: I sold a kidney to get this. I mean it wasn't mine, but what am I gonna tell the hooker when she wakes up?
Nick Vaughan: Danny!
[Brooke laughs]
Danny: *Kidding!* She's not gonna wake up.
-
Brooke Dalton: You're worth a thousand Coles.
Nick Vaughan: What happened to a trillion?
Brooke Dalton: He was tall.
[Nick scroffs]
-
Brooke Dalton: I heard you play and you loved it. Remember?
Nick Vaughan: Kind of feel like it doesn't love me back.
-
Brooke Dalton: I feel that we met in Grand Central for a reason. We were meant to find each other.
-
Nick Vaughan: You sure you're okay?
Brooke Dalton: My purse was stolen.
Nick Vaughan: I've got like... eighty bucks. How far you going?
Brooke Dalton: You can't help me.
-
Nick Vaughan: So what you wanna do... you wanna get a hotel or something?
Brooke Dalton: Excuse me?
Nick Vaughan: No. Not... not...
[laughs embarrased]
Nick Vaughan: Jesus. Not for us. For you!
-
Nick Vaughan: If we can find your purse, we can get you home. It would make me a hero.
-
Nick Vaughan: Wanna come with me... on a little adventure?
-
Brooke Dalton: I'm sure that my husband will really appreciate your helping me. It's incredibly generous of you!
Nick Vaughan: You didn't have to do that.
[silently chucking to self]
Brooke Dalton: What?
[seemingly unaware]
Nick Vaughan: The husband thing.
Brooke Dalton: Well... I didn't mean to distrust you. It's just you're being so nice!
Nick Vaughan: ...Nice.
[ponders the thought while smirking]
-
Brooke Dalton: It's... it's complicated.
Nick Vaughan: Got it.
Brooke Dalton: What is that supposed to mean?
Nick Vaughan: Well... it's not rocket science.
-
Brooke Dalton: What we need is a time machine.
Nick Vaughan: Well we kinda have one. Few years ago they turned all these public pay phones into time machines. You pick one up dial 1993 and a New Yorker will come on and tell you exactly what was happening on that corner 20 years ago. It's funny.
Brooke Dalton: I don't even need to call that far back. I just need to call yesterday.
Nick Vaughan: Well let's try.
[making phone dialing sounds]
Nick Vaughan: Bop bup bo bo bop bup bup pup What would you tell yourself?
Brooke Dalton: Brooke? It's you... from the future.
[smiling]
Brooke Dalton: She doesn't believe me.
Nick Vaughan: Well of course you've got to tell her something secret. Something only you two would know.
-
Nick Vaughan: But then you wouldn't have met me.
Brooke Dalton: I still haven't decided if that's a good thing.
-
Brooke Dalton: Have you ever had a feeling... and just knowing somewhere in your bones that somebody was going to play a major part in your life?
Nick Vaughan: Yeah
-
Brooke Dalton: You really want to know your future?
Nick Vaughan: [sucks teeth] Maybe not.
Brooke Dalton: You're a working musician until your lips fall off. You're revere. You have a...
Nick Vaughan: Maserati?
Brooke Dalton: ...a dog!
-
Brooke Dalton: You fall in love with a woman that deserves you, and she trusts you.
Nick Vaughan: Well... if I ever got that lucky. I probably wouldn't plan on letting her down.
[brief silence]
-
Nick Vaughan: So talk to me about these pieces. Is this done by your famous London artist guy?
Brooke Dalton: Ohhh hohoh...
[chucking]
Brooke Dalton: Well how did you know?
Nick Vaughan: Well... you can tell you need to know quite a bit about art in order to appreciate it.
Brooke Dalton: [laughs] You're an a**hole. Did you know the most interesting thing about hotel art is not the actual art itself? Obviously. But it's what's behind it.
Nick Vaughan: What, like a safe?
Brooke Dalton: No.
-
Nick Vaughan, Brooke Dalton: Gotta go, the hookers are here.
-
Nick Vaughan, Brooke Dalton: Gotta go, the hookers are here.
Nick Vaughan: We probably shouldn't touch anything in this room.

As the US team's debut film, the director's level is still good. Although it does not use any novel and unique techniques, it shoots the modernity and loneliness of the midnight metropolis, and the whole film has a jazzy flavor. However, the script is not polished enough, and the plot and lines are a bit like chicken soup for the soul, which is far from Linklater.
