Memorable Quotes from Kathleen Quinlan
3 quotesThe Burden of Fulfilled Wishes
Helen Foley
Anthony, where are we?
Anthony
Nowhere.
Helen Foley
And the others?
Anthony
I sent them where they wanted to go. Away from me. It's not fair! You're supposed to be happy when your wishes come true!
Helen Foley
Anthony, take us back. Can you take us back?
Anthony
So you can leave too?
Helen Foley
And go where, Anthony? I've seen what you can do. I know you have a power... a gift that makes you special. You better be careful. For one day it may become too big for you to control. Now maybe. Just maybe. Together we can master it and learn from it. Use it in ways you never thought of before. I'd like to be your teacher, Anthony. And your student.
Anthony
You'd stay with me?
Helen Foley
Yes.
Anthony
Always?
Helen Foley
Always.

Hon, trick-or-treat. Remember those Easter vacation trips we had planned for Acapulco?
Marilyn Lovell
Uh oh.

Well, I was thinking there might be a slight change in destination.
Marilyn Lovell
Really?
Jim Lovell
Maybe, say...the moon.
Jim Lovell
Al Shepard's ear infection has flared up. We've all been bumped up to the prime crew of Apollo 13. Straight to the front line, to the Fra Mauro highlands.

Six months? You're moving up six months?
Barbara Lovell
Dad, can I please wear this?

...Sure.
Marilyn Lovell
Jim.

No! No, absolutely not.

This stinks!

Marilyn Lovell
Go, go.
Jim Lovell
I'm gonna walk on the moon, Marilyn.
Marilyn Lovell

Jim Lovell
It comes after 12, hon.

I'll bet Jenny Armstrong doesn't get a wink of sleep tonight. When you were on the far side on 8, I didn't sleep at all. I just vacuumed over and over again.
