Quotes
-
Sebastian : I read your manifesto.
Annette : You did?
Sebastian : Yes. I must say, I found it rather... appalling.
Annette : That's a first. Most people praise me for it.
Sebastian : Most people are sheep. Who are you to criticize something you've never experienced?
Annette : I wasn't criticizing. I just think people shouldn't experience the act of love until they are in love and I just don't think people our age are mature enough to experience those kinds of emotions.
Sebastian : Are you a lesbian?
Annette : No...
Sebastian : I didn't mean to offend you. I just picked up on a little bit of that lesbian vibe.
-
Annette : I don't believe you.
Sebastian : There's something I have to tell you.
Annette : Tell me.
Sebastian : This isn't working out for me anymore.
Annette : [not taking Sebastian seriously] Yeah, me neither.
[kisses Sebastian and he doesn't respond]
Annette : What's wrong?
Sebastian : It's not you. It's me... I'm completely fucked up.
Annette : What are you saying?
Sebastian : I thought I was in love with you but it was just a lie.I wanted it to work but unfortunately, I feel nothing.
Annette : Why are you doing this?
Sebastian : I just... I just wanted to see what you were like in bed.
Annette : You don't mean that.
Sebastian : You know nothing. You don't even know me!The fact of the matter is, there is someone I love. You don't even compare to her.
Sebastian : I don't know how to make this any clearer to you. You mean nothing to me!You were just... You were just a conquest.
Annette : You're such a coward.Look at yourself! You're shaking! Is that what you came to tell me?
Sebastian : I'm sorry. I'm completely...
Annette : Yeah, you're completely fucked up!Get out!

Annette : How can someone so charming be so manipulative?
-
Annette : I wouldn't expect a man of your experience to understand my beliefs.
Sebastian : [taken off-guard] Uh... what's THAT supposed to mean?
Annette : I've been very well-informed of your reputation.
Sebastian : What have you heard?
Annette : That you promise girls the world in order to get them in bed with you.
Sebastian : [after a pause; more stunned] Who told you this?
Annette : A friend wrote me.
Sebastian : That's a little tacky.
Annette : Why do you sound so surprised? It's the truth isn't it?
Sebastian : [walks away; shrugs] If you say so.

Annette : I don't know. Relationships seem too distracting. I'd rather concentrate on my studies.
-
Annette : [Reciting lines from the letter written to her warning her to stay away from Sebastian] Even more treacherous than he is attractive, he has never uttered a single word without some dishonorable intention. Every woman he has successfully pursued has regretted it. Stay away from him.
-
Annette : You know what your problem is? You take yourself way too seriously.
Sebastian : I do not.
Annette : You should lighten up.
Sebastian : I am lightened, can we drop this?
Annette : Okay.
[Makes a face at Sebastian]
Sebastian : Will you stop that?
Annette : [Continues to make a face]
Sebastian : Stop, it's distracting
[starts to laugh]
Annette : Are you laughing?
Sebastian : [seriously] No.
Annette : No?
[Makes another face, Sebastian begins to laugh and then regains control]
Annette : Its okay you can laugh, I promise I won't tell anyone.

Sebastian : Well, well.
Annette : Hello.
Helen Rosemont : She'll be staying with me for a while.
Sebastian : I guess that makes two of us. Aunt Helen, why don't you go inside and whip us up some of that iced tea of yours. I'll... tend to Annette.
Helen Rosemont : All right. You two don't get into any trouble.

Annette : [Annette walks into the pool area of the Valmont mansion in a bathrobe] Sebastian!
[as she reaches the pool's edge, she sees a naked Sebastian from behind next to the steam room, and she looks absolutely stunned]
Sebastian : [Sebastian turns around, giving Annette a full-frontal view, and she just stands there, both shocked and riveted to do anything else] Would you mind turning around so I can put on my bathing suit?
Annette : [the sound of his voice brings Annette back to reality, even though she's totally flustered] I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
[she turns away while he dives into the pool and whispers to herself]
Annette : Oh my God! So embarrassing!
