Christian: The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to
love and be loved in return.
Christian: This story is about truth, beauty, freedom; but
above all things, this story is about love.
Zidler: She said you make her feel "like a virgin." Duke of
Worcester: Like a... virgin? Zidler: Touched for the very
first time!
[singing] Christian: I was made for lovin' you, baby, you
were made for lovin' me! Satine: The only way of lovin' me,
baby, is to pay a lovely fee!
Toulouse-Lautrec: Christian, you may see me only as a drunken,
vice-ridden gnome whose friends are just pimps and girls from
the brothels. But I know about art and love, if only because
I long for it with every fiber of my being.
Satine: I can't believe it. I'm in love with a talented, rich,
handsome duke. Christian: Duke? Satine: Not that the title's
important, of course! Christian: I'm not a duke. Satine: Not
a duke? Christian: I'm a writer. Satine: A writer?!
[Before kissing Christian.] Satine: You're going to be bad
for business. I can tell.
[Discussing the play.] Duke: Why can't the courtesan marry
the maharaja?! Christian: Because she doesn't love you!
Satine: [seducing Christian] Would you like a little champagne?
Christian: I'd really rather just get on with it.
Christian: Love? Above all things I believe in love.
Christian: Above all things I believe in love. Love is like
oxygen. Love is a many-splendored thing. Love lifts us up
where we belong. All you need is love! Satine: Please, don't
start that again... Christian: [singing] All you need is love!
Satine: A girl has got to eat -- Christian: All you need is
love! Satine: -- or she'll end up on the street! Christian:
All you need is love! Satine: [singing] Love is just a game.
Christian: Tell me the truth! Satine: The truth is that I
am the courtesan... and I choose the maharajah.
Satine: The French are glad to die for love.
Zidler: She is mine. Duke of Worcester: She is mine.
Zidler: Outside it may be raining, but in here it's entertaining!
Satine: What does he go for? Wilting flower? Bright and bubbly?
Or smoldering temptress? Zidler: Oh! Smoldering temptress!
Toulouse: Things aren't always as they seem. Christian: Things
are exactly the way they seem.
Christian: Thank you for curing me of my ridiculous obsession
with love.
Zidler: We're creatures of the underworld. We can't afford
to love.
Christian: I can't write for the Moulin Rouge. Toulouse-Lautrec:
But why not? Christian: I'm not even sure I am a real bohemian
revolutionary! Toulouse-Lautrec: What? Don't you believe in
freedom? Christian: Well, of course I do... Toulouse-Lautrec:
Beauty? Christian: Yes. Toulouse-Lautrec: Truth? Christian:
Yes. Toulouse-Lautrec: Love? Christian: Love? Above all things
I believe in love! Love is like oxygen. Love is a many-splendored
thing, love lifts us up where we belong, all you need is love!
Toulouse-Lautrec: See? You can't fool us! We're The Children
of the Revolution, we can't be fooled!
Zidler: [singing] Spectacular spectacular! / No words in the
vernacular / Can describe this rare event. / You'll be struck
dumb with wonderment! / (Returns are fixed at ten percent
/ Which you'll agree is excellent.)
