Robert Kincaid
- Francesca: You don't understand. Don't you see? Nobody understands when a woman makes a choice to marry and have children, in one way, her life begins, but in another way, it stops. You build a life of details and you just stop and stay steady so that your children can move and when they leave, they take your life of details with them. You're expected to move on again, but you don't even remember what it was that moved you because nobody's asked you in so long, not even yourself.
- [takes deep breath]
- Francesca: But you never think... you never think love like this is going to happen to you.
- Robert Kincaid: But now that you have it...
- Francesca: Ah! Now what I want to keep it forever. I want to love you the way I do now for the rest of my life, but... if we leave, we lose it. And I can't make an entire life disappear to start a new one. All I can do is try to hold on to both of us somewhere inside of me. You have to help me.
- [She walks upto Robert and hugs him]
- Robert Kincaid: Things change. They always do, it's one of the things of nature. Most people are afraid of change, but if you look at it as something you can always count on, then it can be a comfort.
- Robert Kincaid: Do you think that what happened with us just happens to anyone? What we feel for each other? We're hardly... hardly two separate people now. Some people search all of their life for this and never find it. Others don't even think it exists.
- Robert: When I think of why I make pictures, the reason that I can come up with just seems that I've been making my way here. It seems right now that all I've ever done in my life is making my way here to you.
- Robert Kincaid: You can kinda get lost when you're on the road a lot.
- Francesca: Hmm, so what happened?
- Robert Kincaid: I never got lost. I was more at home everywhere than just in one place. Kinda like a citizen of the world.
