Navin: "Why are you crying and why are you wearing that old dress?"
Marie: "Because I just heard a song on the radio that reminded me of the way we were."
Navin: "What was it?"
Marie: "The Way We Were. I get it. We've hit bottom."
Navin: "No! Maybe you've hit bottom, but I haven't hit bottom yet! I got a ways to go. And I'm gonna to bounce back, and when I do, I'm going to buy a diamond so big it's going to make you puke!"
Marie: "I don't wanna puke! I don't want wealth! I just want you like you used to be! What happened to that man?"
Navin: "Me? What happened to the girl I believed in? The girl I fell in love with? The girl that believed in me? Well, there's plenty of places I can go where people believe in me!"
Marie: "Well go! The sooner you're out of my life, the sooner I can go back to being the girl in this little flowered dress that you sang the thermos song to."
Navin: "Well I'm gonna to go then! And I don't need any of this! I don't need this stuff, (he pushes all of the letters off the desk), and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this (he picks up the ashtray) and that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray. And this paddle game, the ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need. And this remote control. The ashtray, the paddle game and the remote control, and that's all I need. And these matches. The ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control and the paddle ball. And this lamp. The ashtray, this paddle game and the remote control and the lamp and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this! The paddle game, and the chair, and the remote control, and the matches, for sure. Well what are you looking at? What do you think I am, some kind of a jerk or something? And this! And that's all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair."
