- Tessa Scott: Our life is a series of moments. Let them all go. Moments. All gathering towards this one.
- Adam: Did that girl hurt you?
- Tessa Scott: Other way round. I caught her fist a good one with my chin, then whacked her right in the knee with my nose.
- Adam: What do you want from me, Tess?
- Tessa Scott: Night time, sleeping together, waking up together, breakfast.
- Adam: What do you really want?
- Tessa Scott: I want you to be with me in the dark, to hold me, to keep loving me, to help me when I get scared, to go right to the edge and see what's there.
- Adam: And what if I get it wrong?
- Tessa Scott: It's impossible to get wrong.
- Father: It's a terrible day in a man's life when his daughter brings a boy home. I always thought if I killed the first one, word would get around.
- Mother: Tessa, promise me you'll always use a condom. I know the smell of rubber can be off-putting, but then, so is gonorrhea.
- Tessa Scott: Please stop. My panic attack is having a panic attack.
- Mother: And don't have casual sex.
- Tessa Scott: Really?
- Mother: No, darling. You must always, always try as hard as you can.

- Tessa Scott: Moments. This is one. This right here, right now, is definitely a moment.
- Zoey: Tessa?
- Tessa Scott: Anything could happen next.
