Quotes 

• Geoffrey Fielding : To understand one human soul is like trying to empty the sea with a cup.

• Geoffrey Fielding : The measure of love is what one is willing to give up for it. Who said that?

• Geoffrey Fielding : [about Pandora and the Dutchman]  I know now that they were in love. But I have a feeling that they never spoke of it.

• Geoffrey Fielding : If I say that I have two samples of handwriting three centuries apart, everyone will say "Poor Geoffrey's lost his wits". Because we live in a time that has no faith in legends, we live in a time that has no faith.

• Geoffrey Fielding : It was not a night for work. The moon was at the full, high over the sea, erotic and disturbing.

• Geoffrey Fielding : Why do you make yourself out so bad?

  Pandora Reynolds : I don't have to. I leave that to others.

• Geoffrey Fielding : The legend says the Flying Dutchman is allowed to land once every seven years, to look for the woman who can redeem him.

  Pandora Reynolds : Redeem him from what?

  Geoffrey Fielding : His curse! He's doomed to wander the sea till judgement day as the captain of a ghost ship; unless, he can find a woman who loves him enough to die for him.

• Geoffrey Fielding : He seemed rapt. Transported to another world. I sensed an almost desperate ecstasy in his enjoyment.

• Geoffrey Fielding : I could not shake off a sense of mingled excitement and foreboding.

• Pandora Reynolds : I'll die if I don't see him again.

  Geoffrey Fielding : You'll live!
