Quotes of Movie: An Ideal Husband [1999]

  • Lord Arthur Goring: To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance. (unknown)
  • Sir Robert Chiltern: If you are suggesting, Sir Edward, that my position in society owes anything to my wife, you are utterly mistaken. It owes everything to my wife. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: Fashion is what one wears oneself. What is unfashionable is what other people wear. Other people are quite dreadful. The only possible society is oneself. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: Excuse me a moment. I'm in the middle of my performance of the attentive son. (unknown)
  • Mabel: To look at a thing is quite different from seeing a thing, and one does not see anything until one sees its beauty. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: [to statue] It is a great nuisance. I can't find anyone else to talk to. I'm so full of interesting information, I feel like the latest edition of something or other. Well, after some consideration... so much to do, there's only one thing to be done. There comes a time in every son's life when he must, indeed, follow his father's advice: I shall go to bed at once. (unknown)
  • Lord Caversham: Married yet?
    Lord Arthur Goring: Ask me again in half an hour. (unknown)
  • Countess: Aren't you going to congratulate me?
    Lord Arthur Goring: Congratulations.
    Countess: Aren't you going to ask what for?
    Lord Arthur Goring: What for?
    Countess: I've made a great decision. I've decided to get married.
    Lord Arthur Goring: My God! Who to?
    Countess: That part is yet to be decided. (unknown)
  • Tommy Trafford: Miss Mabel, I hope you'll be able to make our usual appointment, as I have something very particular I wish to say to you. Good day, ladies.
    Mabel: When Tommy wants to be romantic, he talks to one just like a doctor. (unknown)
  • Lord Caversham: I don't know how you stand society. A lot of damned nobodies talking about nothing.
    Lord Arthur Goring: I love talking about nothing, Father. It's the only thing I know anything about.
    Lord Caversham: That is a paradox, sir. I hate paradoxes. (unknown)
  • Lord Caversham: Do you always understand everything you say?
    Lord Arthur Goring: Yes... if I listen attentively.
    Lord Caversham: Conceited young puppy! (unknown)
  • Sir Robert Chiltern: I will give you any sum of money you want.
    Laura: Even you are not rich enough to buy back your past, Sir Robert. No man is. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: I'm sorry, Father, but the truth is, this is not my day for talking seriously.
    Lord Caversham: Well, what do you mean, sir?
    Lord Arthur Goring: I mean that I only talk seriously on the first Tuesday of every month. Between noon and three. (unknown)
  • Lord Caversham: You are 36.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Shh! Father! I only admit to 32. (unknown)
  • Sir Robert Chiltern: Do you know, Arthur, I sometimes wish I were you.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Do you know, Robert, sometimes I wish you were too. Except that you would probably make something useful out of my life, and that would never do. (unknown)
  • Sir Robert Chiltern: Anyway, what's that saying about the sea and there being plenty of fish in it?
    Lord Arthur Goring: Ah, yes, but I couldn't possibly marry a fish. I'd be sure to land an old trout. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: Mrs. Cheveley.
    Laura: Call me Laura.
    Lord Arthur Goring: I don't like that name.
    Laura: You used to adore it.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Yes, that is why. (unknown)
  • Laura: We were quite well suited, as I recall.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Well, you were poor, I was rich, it must have suited you very well. And then you met the Baron, who was even richer. And that suited you better.
    Laura: Have you forgiven me yet?
    Lord Arthur Goring: My dear woman, it's been so long, I'd all but forgotten you. (unknown)
  • Laura: Do you know, Gertrude, I don't mind your talking morality a bit. Morality is simply the attitude we adopt towards people whom we personally dislike. You dislike me, I am quite aware of that, and I have always detested you. (unknown)
  • Lord Arthur Goring: My dear Mrs. Cheveley, I should make you a very bad husband.
    Laura: I don't mind bad husbands. I've had two. They amused me immensely. (unknown)
  • Laura: Then I take it you reject my proposal?
    Lord Arthur Goring: I'm afraid I must. For you see, as tempting as it may be, in truth it's little more than blackmail.
    Laura: True. (unknown)
  • Laura: A rather charming little idea has come into my head, and now that I consider it, I find it to be a rather charming big idea. (unknown)
  • Laura: As a betting man, you must concede there is a certain thrill to it. Consider also how elegantly I've moved from proposal to proposition.
    Lord Arthur Goring: With hardly any loss of face. I'm most impressed, indeed. (unknown)
  • Mabel: Lord Goring, I gather you're to be congratulated.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Well, there's nothing I like more than to be congratulated, though invariably I find the pleasure immeasurably increased when I know what for. (unknown)
  • Gertrude: Oh, Arthur... what a good friend you are to him, to us.
    Lord Arthur Goring: Yes, but we're not out of danger yet. In fact, I believe there's a rather popular saying about frying pans and fires, except now it is you and I, dear Gertrude, who are to be roasted. (unknown)
