Quotes10

  • George Baines: Ada, I'm unhappy. 'Cause I want you. 'Cause my mind has seized on you and can think of nothing else. This is why I've suffered. I am sick with longing. I don't eat, I don't sleep. So, if you have come with no feeling for me, then go. Go. Go. Get out. Leave!
  • George Baines: I have given the piano back to you. I've had enough. The arrangement is making you a whore, and me, wretched. I want you to care for me. But you can't. It's yours, leave. Go on, go.
  • Stewart: What do you think?
  • George Baines: She looks tired.
  • Stewart: She's stunted, thats one thing.
  • George Baines: What happened? Tell me. Tell me! Where is she? Shh. Quiet down! Quiet down. Where is she?
  • Flora: He chopped it off.
  • George Baines: What did she tell him? What did she tell him? I'm going to crush his skull.
  • Flora: Nooo! No, no! He'll chop her up!
  • George Baines: I'd like to make a swap.
  • Stewart: What for?
  • George Baines: The piano.
  • George Baines: [to Ada] Ada, wait. Wait. Do you know how to bargain? There's a way you can have your piano back. Do you want it back? Do you want it back? You see, I'd like us to make a deal. There's things I'd... like to do while you play. If you let me, you can earn it back. What do you think? One visit for every key.
  • George Baines: [to Ada] Lift your skirt. Life it higher. Higher. Higher! Lift it higher.
  • George Baines: [to Ada] Undo your dress. I want to see your arms. Play. Two keys.
  • George Baines: I want to lie together without clothes on.
  • [repeated line]
