Richard BeymerQuotes

Johnny Tremain: You trust me?

Rab Silsbee: Any reason why we shouldn't?

Tony: I didn't believe hard enough.

Maria: Loving is enough.

Tony: Not here. They won't let us be.

Maria: Then we'll get away.

Tony: Yeah. We can?

Maria: Yes.

Tony: We will?

Maria: [sings; Tony dies. As she lays him down on the ground gently, the Jets start towards Chino and the Sharks advance towards them] Yes. Hold my hand and we're halfway there. Hold my hand and I'll take you there. Somehow, someday, some... .

Maria: [The gangs stop. Maria walks over to Chino and takes the gun from him; Points the gun at the Sharks, who move back; Unable to fire the gun, she drops it and breaks down in tears. Schrank and Krupke arrive, and Schrank starts towards Tony's body. Maria runs over and covers Tony; Schrank steps back. Maria gently kisses Tony] Stay back! . How do you fire this gun, Chino? Just by pulling this little trigger?! How many bullets are left, Chino? Enough for you? And you? All of you! You all killed him, and my brother, and Riff! Not with bullets and guns, but with HATE! Well, I can kill now too, because now I have hate! How many can I kill, Chino? How many -- and still have one bullet left for me? Oh No! DON'T YOU TOUCH HIM! . Te adoro, Anton.

Tony: [sings] There's a place for us, Somewhere a place for usPeace and quiet and open air wait for us, Somewhere.

Maria: There's a time for us, Some day a time for usTime together with time to spare, time to look, time to care, Someday.

Tony: Somewhere we'll find a new way of living.

Maria: We'll find a way of forgiving, Somewhere.

Tony: [sings] Make of our hands one hand, Make of our hearts one heartMake of our vows one last vow, Only death will part us now.

Maria: Make of our lives one life, Day after day one life

Tony and Maria: Now it begins, now we startOne hand, one heart, even death won't part us now.

Maria: [sings] Tonight, tonight, it all began tonight, I saw you and the world went away.Tonight, tonight, there's only you tonight, what you are, what you do, what you say.

Tony: Today, all day I had the feeling a miracle would happen, I know now I was right.
