• Cherry McMahon : I never thought it would be deathless but I thought it would leave a trace. Even the dinosaurs left a footprint. Las Vegas - December 1955, including Christmas and New Year's and the first three weeks of January 1956. Cherry McMahon. For the record book, in case you ever wonder what happened to us some sleepless night, I was almost the mother of your child. At one point I was three months pregnant; however as those things usually go, on the advice of an older woman, it came to nothing.

  Stephen Rojack : Sorry.

  Cherry McMahon : For whom?

• [last lines] 

  Cherry McMahon : [looking at Stephen's just shot dead body]  What did you expect from a whore.

• Stephen Rojack : I never stopped thinking about you for a minute. Not even at the marriage ceremony. When the man said, "Do you take this woman as your wife?" a picture of you came into my mind.

  Cherry McMahon : [slightly sarcastically]  I hope you slept in a big bed on your honeymoon. I wouldn't want to feel I crowded you.
