Quotes 

• Charlotte : Stop with this idea of "cheating on your wife". Do you love her?

  Simon : Yes.

  Charlotte : Well, you're not cheating on her. We see each other for other reasons.

• [last lines] 

  Simon : You taking the subway? May I come with you?

  Charlotte : Yes.

• Charlotte : This is the problem with overly-caring people. By being afraid to hurt someone, they don't dare do anything. They reveal nothing of themselves and so they seem indifferent.

• Charlotte : You know what I tell myself, looking at you? It's simple. We feel an attraction for each other, we like each other. We don't build castles in the air. We just want to spend an evening together, right? We could go to my place, it's nearby. I make you tea, we continue our discussion, and make love. Or, we might not make love... We'll see.

• [first lines] 

  Simon : I've never done this before.

  Charlotte : Never done what?

  Simon : I'm talking about our meeting like this. Lying to my wife... I'm not very good at that.

  Charlotte : It was you who called me.

  Simon : You gave me your phone number.

  Charlotte : Well, we'd been kissing before you left the party. You weren't obliged to call me.

  Simon : I really wanted to.

  Charlotte : Yeah... me too.
