Nothing you can be is more terrible than what I am.

Jan Compton:
What's locked behind that door?
Kurt: A horror... no normal mind can imagine. Something even more terrible than you!
Jan Compton: No, my deformed friend, like all quantities, horror has it's ultimate, and I am that.

Leo Kingship:
What is that?
Ellen Kingship: Dorothy's belt. A girl from her sorority sent it.
Leo Kingship: Very thoughtful of her. Or thoughtless, however you feel about those things. I'd have thrown it away and not mentioned it.
Ellen Kingship: I know.
Leo Kingship: What was accomplished by it?
Ellen Kingship: What has to be accomplished by it? Some people do things out of nothing more than sentiment. Softness, you'd probably call it.
Leo Kingship: As opposed to my callousness? My hardness? I think, Ellen, you mistake parading an emotion for feeling one.
Ellen Kingship: I don't think I've paraded mine any more than you've felt yours. If you've had one moment of remorse, one second when you even wondered if you were responsible, then you've concealed it wonderfully. You have my deepest admiration, if not sympathy.
Leo Kingship: That's true. I haven't dwelt on the matter to the point of distorting the facts.
Ellen Kingship: I haven't distorted them, not in my own mind at least. I said once, long ago, I couldn't believe she killed herself. I haven't changed a bit.
