Quotes 

• Diana Bennett : I was hoping you'd come.

  Vincent : I wanted to see you. Thank you for... everything.

  Diana Bennett : It's over now. He's dead. Gabriel's dead.

  Vincent : For so long, he was a... shadow between us.

  Diana Bennett : When I was alone in that room with him, everything seemed so simple, so... mm...

  Vincent : Clear.

  Diana Bennett : I knew exactly what I was thinking. But when I try remembering, it's almost as if... it never even happened.

  Vincent : Memory can be a forgiving thing.

  Diana Bennett : I don't want to forget.

  Vincent : Sometimes it's best to forget.

  Diana Bennett : I don't believe that.

• Vincent : Diana... there's something that I've kept from you; a secret that I couldn't share with you before about where I live, those I live among.

  Diana Bennett : I know about Jacob.

  Vincent : Yes, but there are many others. Good people whose lives depend on the secret of how and where we live.

  Diana Bennett : I've... I've tried imagining, but...

  Vincent : It is a more wonderful place than you could imagine, because it is real. Ours is a world woven with of most delicate threads. Our only protection against those who would threaten us is trust.

  Diana Bennett : Tell me more about this world.

  Vincent : No. Let me show you.

• Vincent : This is where we began.

  Diana Bennett : Now I know how Alice felt.

  Vincent : I'm sorry the Mad Hatter couldn't be at the feast.

  Diana Bennett : Well, I think that Mouse was about I could have handled. I want to thank you for making me feel so welcome.

  Vincent : You felt welcome because you are welcome. If ever you need a home or a place to rest, these tunnels and chambers will be kept warm for you by friends.

• Vincent : How was your time with Jessica?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : I'm not sure. I think we fell in love. If such a thing is... possible. I... I don't know. All I know is I want to be with her.

  Vincent : And she feels the same way?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : She's amazing, Vincent. So alive. So willing to share love with an old man like me.

  Vincent : There isn't a man who better deserves a woman's love.

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : It's a very... strange feeling f-for me, Vincent. Um... it's actually... physically painful, not being with her.

  Vincent : I understand.

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : For Jessica, this could never be home. Living here again, for her, would be impossible.

  Vincent : But you would go above?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : I don't know. I have to sort things out in my mind.

  Vincent : Father. Whatever path you chose, know that I would help you follow it.

• Vincent : I'm remembering how I once loved this city at night. Imagined myself a part of it, saw stories behind each and every light.

  Diana Bennett : And now?

  Vincent : Now I am a stranger here.

  Diana Bennett : You found Catherine in one of those lights.

  Vincent : And I lost her in another.
