Diane Keaton: "Facts – I got a million facts at my fingertips."

Woody Allen as Isaac Davis: "That's right, and they don't mean a thing – right? – because nothing worth knowing can be understood with the mind. Everything really valuable has to enter you through a different opening, if you'll forgive the disgusting imagery."

Keaton: "I really don't agree at all. Where would we be without rational thought?"

Allen: "You, you rely too much on your brain. The brain is the most overrated organ, I think."

Keaton: "I know you probably think I'm too cerebral."

Allen: "Well, you are, ya know, kind of on the brainy side. What's the difference what I think about you? God knows what you must think about me."

Keaton: "Well, I think you're fine. Are you kidding? I mean, you do have a tendency to get a little hostile, but I find that attractive."

Allen: "Oh, yeah? Well, I'm glad you do."

Allen: "What, what kind of foresight is that?"

Diane Keaton: "I don't blame you for being furious with me."

Woody Allen: "I'm too stunned to be furious."

Keaton: "Well then I wish you would. I wish you'd get angry, so that we could have it out, so that we could get it out in the open."

Allen: "I don't get angry, okay? I mean, I have a tendency to internalize. I can't express anger. That's one of the problems I have. I, I grow a tumor instead."

Woody Allen: "An idea for a short story about, um, people in Manhattan who, uh, who are constantly creating these real unnecessary, neurotic problems for themselves 'cause it keeps them from dealing with more unsolvable, terrifying problems about the, the universe."

Diane Keaton: "That's incredible sexual humiliation. It's enough to turn you off of women, and I think it accounts for the little girl."

Woody Allen: "Hey, the little girl is fine! Jesus! She's... What's with the little girl?"

Keaton: "Oh, sure, I understand. Believe me – 16 years old, no possible threat at all."

Allen: "Uh-huh. She's 17. She's gonna be eight– Ya know, sometimes you have a losing personality, Mary."

Woody Allen: "Has anybody read that Nazis are gonna march in New Jersey? Ya know? I read it in the newspaper. We should go down there, get some guys together, ya know, get some bricks and baseball bats, and really explain things to 'em."

Victor Truro: "There was this devastating satirical piece on that on the op-ed page of the Times – devastating."

Allen: "Whoa, whoa. A satirical piece in the Times is one thing, but bricks and baseball bats really gets right to the point of it."

Helen Hanft: "Oh, but really biting satire is always better than physical force."

Allen: "No, physical force is always better with Nazis."

Diane Keaton: "Hey, I'm honest. What do you want? I say what's on my mind, and if you can't take it, well then f*** off."

Woody Allen: "And I like the way you express yourself, too, ya know? It's pithy and degenerate. You get many dates? I don't think so."

Keaton: "No, I do. I, actually – Now I do. You'd never believe this, but I never thought I was very pretty. Oh! What is pretty anyway? I mean, I hate being pretty. It's all so subjective anyway."

Anne Byrne Hoffman as Emily: "He was given to fits of rage, Jewish, liberal paranoia, male chauvinism, self-righteous misanthropy, and nihilistic moods of despair. He had complaints about life, but never any solutions. He longed to be an artist, but balked at the necessary sacrifices. In his most private moments, he spoke of his fear of death, which he elevated to tragic heights, when, in fact, it was mere narcissism."

Woody Allen: "All right, why is life worth living? That's a very good question. Um... Well, there are certain things, I guess, that make it worthwhile. Uh, like what? Okay, um, for me... uh, I would say... Groucho Marx, to name one thing, uh, um, and Willie Mays, and, um, the 2nd movement of the Jupiter Symphony, and, uh, Louie Armstrong recording of Potatohead Blues, um, Swedish movies, naturally, Sentimental Education by Flaubert, uh, Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra, um, those incredible apples and pears by Cézanne, uh, the crabs at Sam Wo's, um, Tracy's face..."
