The English Patient Quotes

 Hana:
The war's over - you told me yourself. How can it be desertion?
Oliver:
It's not over everywhere. I didn't mean literally.
Hana:
[looking at Almasy] When he dies I'll catch up.
Oliver:
[looking over the small cache of provisions] It's not safe here. The whole country's crawling with Bandits and Germans and God knows what. It's madness. I can't allow it. You're not alright, this is natural. It's shock. For all of us. Hana?
Hana:
[bent] I need morphine. A lot. And a pistol.
Oliver:
[clutching at straws, about Almasy] And what if he really is a spy?
Hana:
[impatient] He can't even move!
Oliver:
If anything happened to you I'd never forgive myself. [as Hana nods and smiles]
Oliver:
... We're heading for Leghorn. Livorno the Italians call it. We'll expect you.

 Katharine Clifton:
My darling. I'm waiting for you. How long is the day in the dark? Or a week? The fire is gone, and I'm horribly cold. I really should drag myself outside but then there'd be the sun. I'm afraid I waste the light on the paintings, not writing these words. We die. We die rich with lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we've entered and swum up like rivers. Fears we've hidden in - like this wretched cave. I want all this marked on my body. Where the real countries are. Not boundaries drawn on maps with the names of powerful men. I know you'll come carry me out to the Palace of Winds. That's what I've wanted: to walk in such a place with you. With friends, on an earth without maps. The lamp has gone out and I'm writing in the darkness.
