• Natalie : You're being silly, Roy.

  Roy : I'm being Roy, silly.

• Roy : Oh, God, this town's going to remember us. The couple that went 'beep'.

• Roy : If you could, would you want to know when you were going to die?

  Natalie : No. Yeah. I-I don't know, maybe.

  Roy : Hmm... Not knowing is a luxury.

  [Roy coughs] 

  Roy : I used to think I was going to live long enough that I would hate getting old.

  [sarcastically] 

  Roy : Oh, fuck. I blew that one.

• Roy : Darling, please don't take the Lord's name in vain; I need all the friends I can get.

• Roy : Have you ever seen it snow on the ocean?

  Natalie : I don't think so.

  Roy : It's the sound of the snow, really. It's as if each individual flake has its own... voice. A hiss as it hits the water, and then this whisper as it tames the ocean's roar... peacefully. It's my favorite Christmas thing.

• Roy : Is that my sweater you have on?

  Natalie : No, Roy, it's my sweater.

  Roy : I think I'd know my own sweater, Natalie.

  Natalie : It's polyester, Roy.

  Roy : Definitely not my sweater.

• Roy : Gone for a few days and they start applying make-up like it's Spackle!

• Roy : What's your problem now, besides the fact that you can't cook rice? And don't give me one of your looks.

  Natalie : I'm not.

  Roy : DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE NOT! Who the hell do you think you are? I AM STILL MR. ROY HADDAD, REMEMBER? Can you remember that? Can you remember fucking ANYTHING? You think you know everything, Natalie, but let me tell you I am here to tell you different, and DON'T YOU FORGET IT!

• Roy : Arthur, let me explain this to you. There is FedEx, and then there is FedEx, and then there's FEDEX!

• Roy : Alan insisted that we have people... to look after him. We could afford it, he said. He wanted me to keep working, and he didn't want me to watch him go. Then I realized... a parade of strangers watched him go.

• Roy : This is my sister Natalie, everyone; she has decided to grace us with her presence on my birthday. She doesn't come cheap, and she doesn't come on time.

• Natalie : You know, it's funny. You're the only one in the entire family that ever had a real, loving relationship.

  Roy : From your mouth to God's ears. What about you?

  Natalie : Nothing like with you and Alan.

  Roy : Why not?

  Natalie : I don't know. Prefer to be alone, I guess.

  Roy : Sometimes I think you're the only woman waiting to come out as a heterosexual.

  [Roy leans forward and strokes Natalie's hair] 

  Roy : No one prefers to be alone, Natalie. No one. The first step is... scary. But it's worth it.

• Natalie : Are you...

  Roy : Done? Oh God, I hope so.

• Roy : Do you think God will let me into his kingdom? I would let him into mine if he asked.

• Roy : Nobody wants to be alone. Nobody. The first step is scary, but it's worth it.
