- Chief Magistrate: [to Liliom] The memory of you makes them much happier than you could ever make them.
- Liliom: [speaking about Louise] I wanted to make her laugh, and she wouldn't laugh! I wanted to make her like me, and she wouldn't like me! Oh, I've failed!
- Marie: He takes my hand, like this... Then he wants to swing hands, like this. But I don't let him.
- Julie: Is that what you call "flirting"
- Marie: Uh-huh. It's sinful, but it's awfully thrilling. For a long time I don't let him.
- [Chuckles]
- Marie: Until in the end, I let him. The we walk along swinging hands, up and down, up and down, just like this. That's passionate love.
- Louise: He hit me. I heard the sound of it. But it didn't hurt, Mother. It felt just like a kiss... Tell me Mother, has anyone ever hit you without hurting you in the least?
- Julie: Yes dear. It's happened to me too.
- Louise: Can anyone hit you real hard and loud, without hurting you at all?
- Julie: Yes, dear. It's possible for someone to beat you and beat you and beat you, and not hurt you at all.
- Liliom: [speaking about the bad-tempered Mme. Muscat] I ain't never beat up a woman yet... well, almost never.
- Liliom: [to Julie] I beat you, not because I was mad at you, but because I couldn't bear to see you cry. But I'm not asking forgiveness. I don't do that, I don't. I'll have to go on the train alone.
