1. Diana: If you ever want something badly, let it go. If it comes back to you, then it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours to begin with. (What's yours is yours, It's not your request.)
2. Diana: The dress is for sale. I'm not.
3. Diana: Somethings are not for sale. John: Such as? (For example?) Diana: Well you can't buy people. (Well, you can't buy people) David: I thought we were invincible. But now I know that the things that people in love do to each other, they remember. And if they stay together, it's not because they forget. It's because they forgive. Everything done, if they could choose to stay together, not because of forgetting, but because of forgiveness.)

4. Someone once said, "If you want something very badly, set it free. If it comes back to you, it's yours forever. If it doesn't, it was never yours to begin with. (Someone once said," If you desperately want something, set her free. If she comes back to you, she's yours. If she doesn't come back, it's never yours.")

5. I remember once when I was young, I was coming back from some place, a movie or something, I was on the subway. There was a girl sitting across from me. She was wearing this dress that was buttoned clear up right to here. She was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen. And I was shy then. So when she would look at me, I would look away. Then afterwards, when I would look back, she would look away. Then I got to where I was gonna get off, got off and the door closed, as the train was pulling away, she looked right at me, and gave me the most incredible smile. It was awful. I wanted to tear the doors open. I went back every night, same time, for 2 weeks. But she never showed up. That was thirty years ago. And I don't think there's a day that goes by that I don't think about her. I don't want that happen again. Just one dance?

6. I think the mistake I made in Vegas was thinking that I could forget what we did. I thought we were invincible. But now I know that the things that people in love do to each other, they remember. If they stay together, it's not because they forget. It's because they forgive. I was just, I was just so afraid that you wanted him. No, actually I was afraid that you were right to want him. 'Cause I thought he was the better man. And I know now he's not. He's just got more money.

7. -Have I ever told you I love you? -No. -I do. -Still? -Always.

    This is Adrian Ryan’s last work before lolita was filmed. Many expressions have already emerged here: play and gaze by the refrigerator; intimate behaviors performed on the money-sprinkled bed, with the tension of acquaintance and power. The anger at the phone call, the secret meaning of communication with the outside world contained in the phone call; No matter what kind of love relationship, Adrian is accompanied by soothing and distant music, with a strong sense of fatalism, and strengthens the encounter of characters with disproportionate power status. Irresistible, these are all amplified in the subsequent lolita. He has surprising intuitions about the secrets and guesses contained in intimate relationships. This is a story adapted from the novel, but it is not thorough enough. It takes into account the perspectives of three people and tries to distinguish the difference between love and love. In lolita, there is no such restriction, so Adrian can go farther and more wanton.

Indecent Proposal quotes

  • David: [while playing pool] I guess there's limits to what money can buy.

    John: Not many.

    Diana: Well some things aren't for sale.

    John: Such as?

    Diana: Well you can't buy people.

    John: That's naive, Diana. I buy people every day.

    Diana: In business, maybe, but you can't buy people not when real emotions are involved.

    John: So you're saying you can't buy love? That's a bit of a cliché don't you think?

    Diana: It's absolutely true.

    John: Is it? What do you think?

    David: I agree with Diana.

    John: You do? Well let's test the cliché. Suppose... I were to offer you one million dollars for one night with your wife.

    David: I'd assume you're kidding.

    John: Let's pretend I'm not. What would you say?

    Diana: He'd tell you to go to hell.

    John: I didn't hear him.

    David: I'd tell you to go to hell.

    John: That's a reflex answer because you view the question as hypothetical. But let's say that there was real money backing it up. I'm not kidding. A million dollars. The night would come and go but the money could last a lifetime. Think of it. A million dollars. A lifetime of security... for one night. Don't answer right away. Just consider it; seriously?

    David: We're positive, okay?

    John: Well then you've proved your point. There are limits to what money can buy. It's late, and I hate to admit it, but I have meetings in the morning. May I have one dance? With your permission.

    David: You know something? I think you better hurry on to that meeting. You don't want to miss out on your next billion.

    John: Understood. I wouldn't part with her either. Good night.

  • Diana: Somethings are not for sale.

    John: Such as?

    Diana: Well you can't buy people.
