Breakfast at Tiffany's (film)

"[singing] Moon River, wider than a mile Im crossing you in style some day Oh, dream maker, my heart breaker Wherever youre going, Im going your way …"

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] Ive got to do something about the way I look. I mean a girl just cant go to Sing Sing with a green face."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] But I am mad about Jose. I honestly think Id give up smoking if he asked me."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] There are certain shades of limelight that can wreck a girls complexion."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] Ahh . . . Do I detect a look of disapproval in your eye? Tough beans buddy, cause thats the way its gonna be."

"[to Holly Golightly] I dont think Ive ever drunk champagne before breakfast before. With breakfast on several occasions, but never before, before."

"[to Holly Golightly] You know whats wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? Youre chicken, youve got no guts. Youre afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, lifes a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because thats the only chance anybodys got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing", and youre terrified somebodys gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, youre already in that cage. You built it yourself. And its not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. Its wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] It should take you exactly four seconds to cross from here to that door. Ill give you two."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] You could always tell what kind of a person a man thinks you are by the earrings he gives you. I must say, the mind reels."

"Im like Cat, here. Were a couple of no-name slobs."

"[to Paul "Fred" Varjak] Its useful being top banana in the shock department!"

"[to Holly Golightly] And I always heard people in New York never get to know their neighbors."
