Quotes
-
Lola : You only love once. For me, it already happened.
-
Lola : [singing] It's me, Lola! The girl who laughs at anything, And says love's a lovely thing, Wins men's hearts without fear, And gives without a tear, To older guys or brave young men, Is always asking where or when, Likes to please them every day, Without going all the way, It's me, Lola!
-
Lola : As a kid, I dreamed of being tall, with a nice figure, and of being a dancer -- at the Opéra, of course. Seems I took a wrong turn somewhere. But, I have no regrets.
-
Lola : We barely know each other.
Roland Cassard : Call it love at first sight. You know how that is.
Lola : At 16, yes, but we're not 16 anymore. Admit you just want to sleep with me.
Roland Cassard : Of course I do. But I want the feeling to be mutual.
-
Lola : Feel! I washed my hair. It's all silky.
-
Lola : I should sew some fancy stuff on mine. Something flossy, you know? And something glittery here. It'd look great. And a big plume like Marilyn Monroe's.
-
Lola : [singing] I see a ship tied to a buoy, Then I meet a sailor boy, We sing and we dance, We play with romance, We whirl and we spin, Then I say with a grin, That I mean no, It's time to go, That's enough, Don't get rough...
-
Lola : I thought you were a friend, but you're like all the other men. I've never had a male friend, just guys chasing after me. But, I'm nobody special.
-
Lola : I laugh because no one calls me Cecile anymore. My stage name is Lola, everyone calls me that.
-
Lola : Whiskey and cigarettes! That's crazy!
-
Lola : I had my mother's apartment till she got evicted and died. People laugh when I say she died from being evicted, but it's true.
-
Lola : Isn't life a beautiful thing?
Roland Cassard : In theory, but what we do with it isn't always great.
