Alec Guinness
(as Prince Albert)
Prince Albert:
I'm afraid so. And there she must stay, out on the lake; silent, white, majestic. Be a bird, but never fly; know one song but never sing it until the moment of death. And so it must be for you, Alexandra. Cool indifference to the staring crowds along the bank. And the song? Never.
Alec Guinness
(as Prince Albert)
Prince Albert:
Your father used to call you his swan, so I am told. I think that's a good thing to remember. Think what it means to be a swan. To glide like a dream on the smooth surface of the lake, and never go to the shore. On dry land, where ordinary people walk, the swan is awkward, even ridiculous. When she waddles up the bank she painfully resembles a different kind of bird, n'est-ce-pas?

Dr. Nicholas Agi:
A fencer is always in danger of revealing his intentions to his adversary - and that he must never do.

Dr. Nicholas Agi:
I never dared to think that you could give your love to me. But can you blame me now if I want to - - if I want to take you and carry you off into the darkness out there? Close your eyes.
Grace Kelly
(as Princess Alexandra)
Dr. Nicholas Agi:
You're so sweet and so beautiful...
Princess Alexandra: Don't come any closer Nicholas... I've never seen a man in love and... he happens to be in love with me.
Dr. Nicholas Agi: Are you so afraid of me?
Princess Alexandra: Oh, if I am I want always to be afraid. I want to be so good to you. I want a hundred things. I want to tell you everything that's in my heart... I want to look after you and spoil you and... oh, eat something.
Princess Alexandra: Don't come any closer Nicholas... I've never seen a man in love and... he happens to be in love with me.
Dr. Nicholas Agi: Are you so afraid of me?
Princess Alexandra: Oh, if I am I want always to be afraid. I want to be so good to you. I want a hundred things. I want to tell you everything that's in my heart... I want to look after you and spoil you and... oh, eat something.
