Quotes from the Movie
|
| : |
"Honey, if I couldn't get a man to leave her, I wouldn't kill him. I'd kill myself." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE), to Shirley (KATHY BATES), a detective who thinks Nicole might have killed Guy (CHAZZ PALMINTERI) because she couldn't have him for herself. "Yeah, you're in heaven and I'm the Virgin Mary." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE) to Mia (ISABELLE ADJANI), after Mia faints and regains consciousness. "Oh, come on -- you can't pull that off." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE), pulling an unlit cigarette out from the lips of Mia (ISABELLE ADJANI). |
