Celine:
So you're telling me that successful relationships... are made in heaven? Notfounded on the daily practicality... of two people being prepared... to tolerate the imperfections of one another?

Robert:
It's not successful relationships, Celine. It's love. And it comes from a strange and wonderful place... that we don't know about.

Celine:
So you also reject the idea... that love is merely an emotional adaptation... to a physical necessity?

Robert:
Completely.

Celine:
Are you serious?

Robert:
Fate intervenes in people's lives. In ours, for instance. Fate brought us together. It kept us together. We were destined for one another.

Celine:
Fate had a pretty strange way of making its point.

Robert:
But that's part of the beauty of it. It's inexplicable, unpredictable... and absolutely beyond control or understanding.

Celine:
But you nearly got killed.

Robert:
But I didn't... and here we are.

Celine:
Do you have any substantial evidence to back all this?

Robert:
None at all.

Celine:
And you realize that it's absurd and irrational?

Robert:
I know that.

Celine:
Then why do you believe it?

Robert:
Because, Celine, I'm a dreamer.

Celine:
Well, I guess that makes two of us.

Robert:
Are you ready?

Celine:
As I'll ever be.

Robert:
Then let's go.
