Diane
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Excuse me, excuse me. I don't mean to harass you, but I was very impressed with the capable and stylish manner in which you dealt with that situation. And I was thinking to myself, now this girl's special.
- Diane: Thanks.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: What's your name?
- Diane: Diane.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: And where are you going, Diane?
- Diane: I'm going home.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Well, where's that?
- Diane: It's where I live.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Great.
- Diane: What?
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Well, I'll come back with you if you like, but like, I'm not promising anything, you know.
- Diane: Do you find that this approach usually works? Or let me guess, you've never tried it before. In fact, you don't normally approach girls - am I right? The truth is that you're a quiet sensitive type but, if I'm prepared to take a chance, I might just get to know the inner you: witty, adventurous, passionate, loving, loyal. Taxi! A little bit crazy, a little bit bad. But hey - don't us girls just love that?
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Eh?
- Diane: Well, what's wrong boy - cat got your tongue?
- Diane: You're not getting any younger, Mark. The world's changing. Music's changing. Even drugs are changing. You can't stay in here all day dreaming about heroin and Ziggy Pop.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It's Iggy Pop.
- Diane: Whatever. I mean, the guy's dead anyway.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Iggy Pop's not dead. He toured last year! Tommy went to see him.
- Diane: The point is, you've got to find something new.
- [Mark had sex with Diane the previous night, only to discover she is an underage schoolgirl]
- Diane: I don't see why not.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Because it's illegal, that's why not.
- Diane: What, holding hands?
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: No, not holding hands!
- Diane: In that case you can do it. You were quite happy to do a lot more last night.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Yeah, and that's what's illegal. Do you know what they do to people like me inside? They cut your balls off and flush them down the fucking toilet.
- Diane: Calm down. You're not going to jail.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: Well, that's very easy for you to say Diane.
- Diane: Can I see you again?
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: [scoffs] Certainly not!
- Diane: If you don't see me again, I'll tell the police.
- Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: [turns around and stares at Diane blankly]
- Diane: I'll see you around then.
- Diane: [singing during Mark's hallucination] You've got green eyes... You've got blue eyes... You've got grey eyes... And I've never... seen... anyone... quite like you before. No, I've never... met... anyone... quite like you before.
