Quotes 

  • Olivia Wenscombe : You married her. You had a child with her.

    Alfred Borden : Yes. Part of me did. But the other part... the other part didn't. The part that found you, the part that's sitting here right now.

    Olivia Wenscombe : You could be in some other cafe saying the same thing about me right now. It's inhuman to be so cold.

  • Olivia Wenscombe : [referring to Angier]  He wants me to come work for you and steal your secrets.

    Alfred Borden : What does he need my secrets for? His trick is top-notch. He vanishes, and then he reappears instantly on the other side of the stage - mute, overweight, and unless I'm mistaken, very drunk. It's astonishing, how does he do it?

  • Olivia Wenscombe : He says that it's even between you.

    Robert Angier : Even? My wife for a few of his fingers?

  • Olivia Wenscombe : It won't bring your wife back.

    Robert Angier : I don't care about my wife. I care about his secret.

  • [Discussing Borden's trick] 

    Robert Angier : How does he do it?

    Cutter : He uses a double.

    Robert Angier : No, no, no, no. It's too simple. This is a complex illusion.

    Cutter : You only say that because you don't know the method. It's a double that comes out of the other end, I promise you.

    Robert Angier : I've seen the show three times now, Mr. Cutter, and the prestige is the same man coming out of the second box.

    Cutter : No, it's not.

    Olivia Wenscombe : It's the same man. He wears gloves to hide his fingers, but if you look closely you can tell.

  • [Olivia visits Alfred Borden in his workshop. Bernard Fallon is there too] 

    Olivia Wenscombe : I'm here to give your show what's still missing.

    Alfred Borden : Yeah? What might that be?

    Olivia Wenscombe : Me.

    [Borden laughs] 

    Alfred Borden : I was just saying that; weren't I, Bernard? Woman's touch.

  • Olivia Wenscombe : The Great Danton is a blind fool!

  • Olivia Wenscombe : I *have* fallen in love with him, Robert.

    Robert Angier : Then I know how hard this has been for you.

  • [Discussing Borden's show] 

    Robert Angier : He had a new trick today.

    Olivia Wenscombe : Was it good?

    Robert Angier : It was the most amazing magic trick I've ever seen.

  • Olivia Wenscombe : Why would he trust me?

    Robert Angier : Because you're going to tell him the truth.
