Jack: Keep your eyes closed. Don't peek.

Rose: I'm not.

Jack: Now, step up onto the rail. Hold on. Hold on. Keep your eyes closed. Do you trust me?

Jack: All right... open your eyes.

Rose: I'm flying, Jack!

Jack (sings): Come, Josephine, in my flying machine. Going up... she goes. Up she goes.

Rose: Well, I'm fine. I'll be fine. Really.

Jack: Really? I don't think so. They've got you trapped, Rose. And you're gonna die if you don't break free. Maybe not right away because you're strong but sooner or later that fire that I love about you, Rose, that fire is gonna burn out.

Jack: Rose... you're no picnic. All right? You're a spoiled little brat even. But under that, you're the most amazingly, astounding... wonderful girl... woman, that I've ever known. And...

Rose: Jack, I...

Jack: No, let me try and get this out. You're ama... I'm not an idiot. I know how the world works. I've got ten bucks in my pocket. I have nothing to offer you and I know that. I understand. But I'm too involved now. You jump, I jump. Remember? I can't turn away without knowing you'll be all right. That's all that I want.

Rose: Mr. Andrews... Forgive me. I did the sum in my head and with the number of lifeboats times the capacity you mentioned.... Forgive me, but it seems that there are not enough for everyone aboard.

Thomas Andrews: About half, actually. Rose, you miss nothing, do you? In fact, I put in these new type davits which can take an extra row of boats inside this one. But it was thought, by some, the deck would look too cluttered. So, I was overruled.

Cal: It's a waste of deck space as it is on an unsinkable ship.

Thomas Andrews: Sleep soundly, young Rose. I have built you a good ship, strong and true. She's all the lifeboat you need.

Ruth: Your father left us nothing but a legacy of bad debts hidden by a good name. That name is the only card we have to play. I don't understand you. It is a fine match with Hockley. It will ensure our survival.

Rose: How can you put this on me? Why are you being so selfish?

Ruth: I'm being selfish? Do you want to see me working as a seamstress? Is that what you want? To see our fine things sold at auction? Our memories scattered?

Rose: It's so unfair.

Ruth: Of course it's unfair. We're women. Our choices are never easy.

Cal: You will never behave like that again.

Rose: I'm not one of your mill foremen who you can command. I'm your fiancée.

Cal: My fiancée. My fiancée! Yes, you are! And my wife! My wife in practice, if not yet by law, so you will honor me! You will honor me the way a wife honors her husband. Because I will not be made a fool of.

(Rose is looking at the starry sky and shows a shooting star to Jack...)

Rose: Aren't we suppose to wish on it?

Jack: Why? What would you wish for?

Rose: Something I can't have. Good night, Jack.

Rose: Everybody expects me to be this delicate little flower which I am not! I'm sturdy, I'm strong as a horse. I'm here to do something, not just sit around and be decorative. You see these hands? They were made for work.

Waiter: Care for something, miss? Would you like some tea or some bouillon?

Rose: No!

(Jack laughs)

Rose: There is something in me, Jack. Like a dynamo, I feel it. I don't know what it is whenever I should be an artist on a sculptor or I don't know. A-a dancer like Isadora Duncan or wild pagan spirit. Or a moving picture actress.

Rose: My dream has always been to just run away and become an artist. Living in the garrett, poor but free.

Jack: You wouldn't last two days. There is no hot water and hardly any caviar.

Rose: I happen to hate caviar. And I hate people telling me what dreams I should and shouldn't have.

(Rose is going through Jack's sketchbook...)

Rose: You liked this woman. You used her several times.

Jack: Well. She had beautiful hands, you see?

Rose: I think you must have had a love affair with her.

Jack: No, no, no. Just with her hands. She was a one-legged prostitute. See? She had a good sense of humor though.

Rose: Paris? You do get around for a p... Well, a... a person of limited means.

Jack: Go on. A poor guy. You can say it.

(Jack asks if Rose loves Cal...)

Rose: This is absurd. You don't know me and I don't know you and we are not having this conversation at all. You are rude and uncouth and presumptuous and I am leaving now, Jack. Mr. Dawson. It's been a pleasure. I sought you out to thank you and now I have thanked you.

Jack: And you've insulted me.

Rose: Well, you deserved it.

Jack: Right.

Rose: Right.

Jack: I thought you were leaving.

Rose: I am. You are so annoying. Wait. I don't have to leave. This is my part of the ship. You leave.

Jack: Well, well, well. Now who's being rude?
