Comet Movie Quotes
Dell
I feel like I'm in the wrong world.
Dell
'Cause I don't belong in a world where we don't end up together. I don't.
Dell
There are parallel universes out there where this didn't happen.
Dell
Where I was with you, and you were with me.
Dell
And whatever universe that is that's the one where my heart lives in.

Dell
Why does it feel so impossible to let you go?
Dell
It's an addiction, you know. That's all it is.
Dell
It's a biochemical addiction. It's so stupid.
Dell
If you think about it relationships are all totally narcissistic.
Dell
Basically, you're just looking for someone who'll love you as much as you love yourself. That's all it is.

Kimberly
See? This is why I hate time. I can't enjoy my sesame chicken because of that.
Dell
Kim.
Kimberly
I wish I could just... stop it or something. Or at least just make it pause when needed, like now. Really, I'd just get of it altogether.
Dell
You want get rid of time? How would you do that?
Kimberly
You know how there's time-based art? Movies, music, plays- it's all time-based art. There's a beginning and a middle and an end. and you have to see it from beginning to end. You're restrained to that time line, that way of experiencing it. But then there's paintings, no beginning, no middle, no end. You see what you want to see when you want to see it. No restrictions. It's just there.

Kimberly
What do you want to tell me, Dell?
Dell
Kimberly... I used to find it really annoying you said 'so' all the time. Bugged the shit out of me. And I... I love it. I love it now. After we have sex and you shrug your shoulders and you say 'I'm here all week!,' - love that. I love that a single strand of your hair can fall so perfectly to the side and you don't even know. I love the little blue veins behind your eyes. I love your eyes. Knowing you goes down as easily the best thing that's ever happened to me. Easily. If I were a restaurant, you'd be my special, but nobody could order you, 'cause I'd just want you to be mine, just all mine. Not in, like, a biblical slavery-owning sense, or a pimp-prostitute dynamic of "you be mine, bitch," but... but just in that... you're my love. You're my love. But my favorite thing of all: I like you 'cause you like me. I don't know - I think that says a lot about how great you are as a person. So, um...
Kimberly
Dell... Believe me. Believe me when I say, you almost had me.

Dell
I'm not gonna ask you out because I don't believe in love.
Dell
I think all relationships deteriorate into hate indifference or... Well, yeah, those two things.
Kimberly
My parents have been together for 32 years. And they're happily in love.
Dell
No, they're not.
Kimberly
Yes, they are.
Dell
No, they're not.
Dell
If they haven't divorced by now probably means they've just surrendered to the fact that being apart isn't much better than being together.
Dell
You know, the lesser of two evils.
Dell
Trust me, it's like an emotional holocaust between your parents right now.
Dell
They probably have lukewarm feelings about you too.

Kimberly
It's beautiful when the weather is not hot or cold. Kinda like you don't notice it. Kinda like it's perfect because everything is so balanced. You don't even feel it. And while you're feeling that non-feeling you look up in the sky and you almost think that's why. Because how everything is right now, all the stars and planets and us and the ground, and the cells and molecules right now... is exactly the reason why now is comfortable.

Kimberly
I should get back to my date. He's probably...
Dell
But I just wanna keep talking to you.
Kimberly
What?
Dell
I wanna keep talking to you for multiple reasons. I mean, you're beautiful, but it's more than that. I promise.
Kimberly
That's very nice, but I should go. Maybe I'll see you in the winter when you're a C plus.
Dell
See? I knew it. I knew you were superficial. I told you.
Kimberly
The only reason that you're talking to me is because you think I'm hot.
Dell
Yeah, but the only reason why you won't is because you think I'm not.
Kimberly
Fine. Give me a reason why I should?
Dell
I was saying, "Don't miss her. " Earlier, when you saw me talking to myself. I was saying, "Don't miss her. " I'm always so afraid I'm gonna miss the important things in life. Something about you has given me a heightened curiosity to know you better. And that is a near impossible feat when it comes to me because I hate getting to know people. But I can tell you're not like the others.
Kimberly
What others?
Dell
People.
Kimberly
People? You can tell I'm not a person?
Dell
Yeah, you're not phony like them. Also, I didn't say you were hot. I said you are beautiful.

Secondly, it's not irrational to think that commitment can hurt you, 'cause it can.

Kimberly
Can I please get off the phone with you and not feel like shit...
Dell
You hurt me! You really hurt me this time, Kimberly... I wanna break up with you. I don't love you.
Kimberly
Dell, that's not what you want to say...
Dell
That is what I want to say actually. I don't... I don't love you, Kimberly. Honestly, I don't know if I ever really did. And you definitely didn't. If you're capable of making choices that knowingly hurts the other person, that's not love.
Kimberly
Okay, you're mad, you're mad... How can you say that?
Dell
Reality is I could have met any number of girls to be with for a few years. That was your lie. Alright? Texting Jack behind my back. It came when I least expected it. I fell for it hook, line and sinker and it fucking hurts. That was your lie. Bravo.
Kimberly
Okay, fine. You wanna hurt me? You wanna be right? Fine, go ahead. Be right.
Dell
All I ever wanted was the truth.
Kimberly
No, no, you wanna be right. No. Truth is not what you're after. Because if you wanted the truth, then you would have to accept the fact that I do...

Kimberly
Well, I was just trying to get mine over with.
Dell
Get what over who?
Kimberly
My lie to you.
Dell
You can't.
Kimberly
Why can't?
Dell
Because I saw it coming, because we just talked about it. You've got to wait until I'm in a completely vulnerable position where I'd really fall for it.
Kimberly
That sounds really dangerous.
Dell
Oh, yeah, that's the problem with relationships.
Kimberly
Danger?
Dell
Or worse.
Kimberly
Worse?
Dell
You could change the other person.
Kimberly
You're a very broken man, Dell.

Dell
I'm saying I dreamt a bunch of conversations, including this one which led me to come here, because it made me think about how much I regretted...
Kimberly
Do you regret meeting me, Dell?
Dell
No, of course not.
Kimberly
I'm glad we dated. I needed to date you. Before you, I only dated guys that looked good on paper.
Dell
Yeah. Wait, what?
Kimberly
You were really, really smart, but also selfish, crass... Not always in an entertaining way, mind you. You hated your job and life and you were completely comfortable being miserable. You're horrible on paper. And I loved you. Being with you made me realize it... Doesn't have to look good on paper to feel good.

Dell
You're a now person.
Kimberly
True.
Dell
Yeah, see, I'm a 5-minutes-from-now person. Because 5 minutes from now, a gust of wind could come in and blow H1N1 in everyone's eyes.
Kimberly
Right. Except that's highly unlikely.
Dell
Or 5 minutes from now, an earthquake could erupt and swallow us all whole.
Kimberly
Right. Except that... No, shit, that could actually happen.
Dell
Yeah. The point is I'm way too anxious about what could happen 5 minutes from now to be content with now. Can't do it.
Kimberly
What if something good happens 5 minutes from now? Can't that happen?
Dell
No.
Kimberly
What did you think was gonna happen 5 minutes before you met me?
Dell
I'm just really paranoid I'm gonna miss it. I miss things a lot.
Kimberly
I don't care if I miss it because...
Dell
You're a now person. Got it. So another weird thing. I don't mind your pessimism as much as I usually mind pessimism.
Kimberly
That's great. I hate people who think I'm too negative.
Kimberly
Also, I like your hat.
Dell
Yeah, I'm probably gonna fall in love with you.
Kimberly
Wow.

Something's wrong. I know it, Kimberly, I know you. You have circles under your eyes. You were the type of girl that could sleep through wars. And despite that, you're still looking so beautiful. More beautiful than ever, in fact. It's usually a sign you wanna remind the world that you're a sexual being because your man's not picking up the signal. You've checked out of this relationship, haven't you? You're not happy. Also, you're listening to Roxette. I know that means the beginning of the end. And let's get real for a second about the ring, alright. You're not having it sized. I'm sure you had your ring-size burned into Jack's memory years ago. Fuck, I still remember it, 4.5. You didn't wear the ring because you didn't want me to see it. Don't marry him, okay. I want you back. I know you want me back too. That's why I'm here. That's what you've been wanting to say to me this whole time...
Kimberly
-Dell.
Dell
-What?
Kimberly
I'm pregnant.
Dell
What?
Kimberly
Morning sickness has been keeping me up. I just really love Roxette. And I dressed this way not to announce to the world anything. It was you. I wanted to look good for you. Because no matter how bad our relationship got I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for it. Because I needed it. I needed you in this life. That's what I wanted to say.
Dell
I gotta... I gotta sit down.
Kimberly
I'm sorry.
Dell
I'm not leaving Jack.
Kimberly
I love him.
Dell
Wow. You're pregnant.

Dell: I just have to tell you something more important really quick. You know that book I've been reading, "The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins, there's this fascinating part I just read about memes. He basically says that ideas are like genes that self-replicate and mutate, like a cultural form of evolution, I was thinking how that applies to us, you know? The idea of us, how we've really mutated and evolved. Right? Because you think about it, we were just dumb, young kids when we first met. And then we broke up, got back together, blah blah blah. And now we're this really mature, loving couple who's grown respect and admiration for each other.

I'm seeing a guy, Jack.

He's an executive at MTV. Looks like a cross between Salvador Dali and Dwayne Wayne from "a different world", which is hot.

I should know that I'm a C, may be a C+ in the winter time when I can cover up my body more. And even though you're a douchebag, you're still incredibly attractive. So, maybe it's only fair, you two pair.
