- Lady Georgiana Grex: It's rather sad that all our old books and pictures seem to be emigrating these days, in search of a better life.
- Harry Widener: [asking Georgiana to dance] May I have the pleasure?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: You don't know it'll be a pleasure.
- Harry Widener: Oh, I'll take my chances.
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: I wish you wouldn't call me Irish.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: You are Irish.
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: I'm not. Not in that way.
- Muriel Batley: Well, she also thinks she's Irish, and she's not right about that.
- John Batley: Well, she grew up in County Wicklow.
- Muriel Batley: If I grew up in a kennel, would that make me a dog?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: [while waltzing with Harry] I can't think why I'm doing this. I despise this sort of thing.
- Harry Widener: That sounds interesting.
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Please don't flirt with me, Mr. Widener. You'll only regret it.
- Harry Widener: Why?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Because I'm not your type at all, and you're certainly not mine.
- Harry Widener: Hmm. Who is?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Oh, writers and rebels angry at their fellow man's injustices.
- Harry Widener: Oh, can't a book collector hate injustice, too?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Not when he's heir to the largest fortune in Philadelphia.
- Bruce Ismay: I suppose we're all men of the world.
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: Lord Manton may be a man of the world, Mr. Ismay, but I am not a woman of the world, I'm glad to say. Good night.
- Lady Georgiana Grex: What's the time? I'd better go and change.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: No, no. Don't get changed. No one changes on the first night out.
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Why not?
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: It's not the done thing. Just tidy yourself up.
- Lady Georgiana Grex: I still don't see why not.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: What does it matter?
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Because I don't believe in the 'done thing.' If I do a thing, I like to know why I'm doing it.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: You wouldn't last long in the army.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: It's a pity they won't let us go ashore at Queenstown tomorrow. I thought we might all enjoy a taste of Ireland.
- John Batley: We're not there much these days. We're based in, uh, London now. Well, Croydon, really.
- Muriel Batley: Yes, only the lucky Irish live in Ireland.
- Muriel Batley: You've let them choke the life out of your dreams, and yet one invitation to tea in first class and you could be a spaniel, begging for a pat from the master.
- Jack Thayer: May I cut in?
- Harry Widener: I don't believe it's an English custom.
- Jack Thayer: But we're good old American boys.
- Muriel Batley: The so-called Anglo-Irish are Anglo first and Irish never. They've crushed the life out of us since the dawn of time, and you expect me to sit and chat with her over a plate of sandwiches?
- Barnes: So do you always look after the maids and valets?
- Annie Desmond: Usually. I've got a few of the second-class cabins, as well.
- Roberta Maioni: But we're first-class passengers.
- Annie Desmond: You're first-class servants. In every way, I'm sure.
- Barnes: Don't let's start the voyage badly. Can't we just rub along with them? It's only a week.
- Mabel Watson: Mr. Barnes, as we both know, I do not share your moral elasticity. I have standards. You have none. That is where we differ.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: You mean they're together but not married? Isn't that rather odd on a ship like this?
- Thomas Andrews: But there are davits for 32 lifeboats. Why on earth haven't we used them?
- Bruce Ismay: Because there's no need. The law stipulates 16 boats, and that is what we have. As well as four collapsibles.
- Thomas Andrews: Mr. Carlisle wanted to carry boats for everyone on board.
- Bruce Ismay: I don't care what Carlisle wanted. He isn't working on it any more.
- Thomas Andrews: What difference does that make?
- Bruce Ismay: I will not have the promenade deck ruined or the ladies terrified out of their wits.
- Grace Rushton: Do forgive us if we've kept you all waiting. Only, I had to see where they've locked up my poor darling.
- Joseph Rushton: Her Pekingese. The dogs have to travel in cages.
- Grace Rushton: Suki in a cage. I feel like William Wilberforce. Who'll free the dogs?
- John Jacob Astor: I'm with you, ma'am. They've locked up my dog, too. Let's say you and me stage a breakout.
- Barnes: And who are you with?
- Emma Sãgesser: Madame Aubart.
- Barnes: Oh. Is she traveling alone?
- Emma Sãgesser: Not at all. She is with Mr. Guggenheim, the millionaire.
- Barnes: Oh, I see.
- Emma Sãgesser: I wonder if you do.
- Mabel Watson: He may not, but I do, right enough.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: I'm afraid you've miscalculated, with your splits and your hatches, Mr. Lightoller, and hundreds of people will drown who need not have done.
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: What a stroke of luck.
- Muriel Batley: As if you needed luck, you patronizing bitch!
- Muriel Batley: No more gracious put-downs. I am not in the mood. You think you're so smart. So fine, so aristocratic, don't you? You are pathetic. You're stupid!
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: Will you shut up!
- Muriel Batley: I will not shut up for a dirty philanderer like you. Oh, yes. Quite the big nobleman now. What about your grubby little secrets in Dulwich?
- Louisa, Countess of Manton: I really think I'd rather freeze to death outside than spend one more minute with these ghastly, screaming women.
- Harry Widener: After that, I'll come and look for you. I just hope I don't find you.
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Why?
- Harry Widener: 'Cause I want you to be safe.
- Harry Widener: Georgiana, if I don't make it...
- Lady Georgiana Grex: Don't say that! Men'll get through this. In first, in second, and in steerage, and they'll live. Just make sure that you're one of them, please!
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: Do empires matter now? They're always more toil than profit.
- Muriel Batley: Oh? So, will you vote for the Irish Home Rule Bill when it gets to the Lords? If you see no point in empires.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: Ireland's rather different.
- Muriel Batley: Not to the Irish, it isn't.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: Batley, over here. Come and take control of your wife.
- Muriel Batley: Take control? How dare you, you arrogant pig?
- Harry Widener: Don't take a stand on everything. Pick your battles. If you fight for a cause, make sure it's a cause that you care about, not just a way to annoy your parents.
- Harry Widener: I can't see the English wanting to drop the class system anytime soon. It's woven into their character.
- Hugh, Earl of Manton: There's one thing you could do that would help me so very much, my dear. Live. For me. Please. Live.
