Amélie – Movie Quotes

Without you, today's emotions would be the scurf of yesterday's.

With a prompter in every cellar window whispering comebacks, shy people would have the last laugh.

To a kid, time always drags. Suddenly you're fifty. All that's left of your childhood... fits in a rusty little box.

Amélie hands a beggar some money:
— Sorry madam, I don't work on Sundays.

The fool looks at a finger that points at the sky.

I had two heart attacks, an abortion, did crack... while I was pregnant. Other than that, I'm fine.

A woman without love wilts like a flower without sun.

Luck is like the Tour de France. You wait, and it flashes past you.

It's better to help people than garden gnomes.

So, my little Amélie, you don't have bones of glass. You can take life's knocks. If you let this chance pass, eventually, your heart will become as dry and brittle as my skeleton. So, go get him, for Pete's sake!
