• Hana : If one night I didn't come to see you, what would you do?

  Kip : I try not to expect you.

  Hana : Yes, but if it got late and... I hadn't shown up?

  Kip : Then I'd think there must be a reason.

  Hana : You wouldn't come to find me? Hmm. That makes me never want to come here. Then I'd tell myself, he spends all day searching. In the night, he wants to be found.

  Kip : I do. I do want you to find me. I do want to be found.

• Kip : The Germans were here. The Germans were all over this area. They left mines everywhere. The pianos were their favorite hiding places.

  Hana : l see. Sorry. Then maybe you're safe ss long ss you only play Bach. He's German.

• Almásy : You're reading it too fast.

  Kip : Not at all.

  Almásy : You have to read Kipling slowly. The eye is too impatient. Think about the speed of his pen. What is it? ''He sat" comma ''in defiance of municipal orders" comma ''astride the gun Zamzammah on her brick..." What is it?'

  Kip : 'Brick platform - opposite the old Ajaib-Gher.''

  Almásy : ''The wonder house" comma "as the natives called the Lahore Museum.''

  Kip : lt's still there, the cannon outside the museum. It was made of metal cups and bowls taken from every household in the city as tax, then melted down. Then later, they fired the cannon at my people - comma - the natives. Full stop.
