Quotes:
Maxim de Winter: Stop biting your nails.
The Second Mrs. de Winter: I wish I were a woman of 36,
dressed in black satin with a string of pearls.
Maxim de Winter: You wouldn't be here with me if you were.
Maxim de Winter: I asked you to come out with me because I wanted your company. You've blotted out the past for me more than all the bright lights of Monte Carlo.
Maxim de Winter: Please don't call me Mr. de Winter. I have a very impressive array of first names. George Fortescue Maximilian.
Maxim de Winter: And another thing, please promise me never to wear
black satin or pearls, or to be 36 years old.
Maxim de Winter: Which would you prefer, New York or Manderley?
Maxim de Winter: I'll repeat what I said. Either you go to America with Mrs. Van Hopper, or you come home to Manderley with me.
The Second Mrs. de Winter: You mean you want a secretary or something?
Maxim de Winter: I'm asking you to marry me, you little fool.
Maxim de Winter: Because I hate the place. And if you had my memories, you wouldn't go there or talk about it or even think about it.
Maxim de Winter: I sometimes seem to fly off the handle for no reason at all.
Maxim de Winter: Her shadow has been between us all the time, keeping us from one another. She knew that this would happen.
Maxim de Winter: It's gone forever, that funny, young, lost look I loved. It won't ever come back. I killed that when I told you about Rebecca.
