Fleur: Don’t go to the wedding. There are religious people there. You don’t want to draw God’s attention to you. You’re in his blind spot. Stay that way.

Cecily, on Fashion Week.
Cecily: I am knitted together tonight by malaise and luxury, in an old hotel room in Saint Germain, gifted to me by a client because it is Fashion Week, and this is how fashion people represent their gratitude. It is well received — I love luxury.
The men, on one thing for certain.
Maurice: Love is ephemeral.
Carlo: But we will always have sparkling water.
From one friend to another. Advice.
Carlo: Try to do some administration. Do not be too full of sentiment. You are like a rich man who does not know what to do with his money.
Cecily: But I am not rich!
Carlo: You are rich. You have two men in love with you.
On Cecily’s habit.
Carlo: How lips that love could pause to smoke, I do not understand.
Two friends, on matters many times counted.
Cecily: You have captured my heart.
Carlo: But you have so many hearts. Your seventh heart loves me, I think. Your third heart is reserved for someone you do not know yet.
Cecily: Only my third heart? Well, it could be very practical that way, to only take reservations for one section of a public garden.
Carlo, on the difference between Rome and Paris.
Carlo: You know it’s a civilisation if they cut the watermelon. We are living amongst barbarians.
Raj to Cecily, on her version of work.
Raj: All you are doing is walking down the street saying hello to people, in the mornings, in the afternoons and in the evenings. You are not a socialite. Socialites do not wave to waiters.
An uncle and a niece, on salsa.
Maurice: I do not like dancing when couples are indecently making love on stage.
Cecily: I do.
Maurice: You like to show off. For me, love is somewhere over a cliff with the stars and the moonshine and wolves howling all around.
Alexander, tired.
Alexander: Should any conversation involving Red Bull ever find itself in your writings, I implore you to change its reference to espresso. Alexander merits better than high fructose corn syrup and questionable stimulants.
