Quotes from Olivia Williams's Characters

    1. Rosemary Cross: Although, I will say that Edward has more spark, character, and imagination in one fingernail than Herman Blume has in his entire body.
    2. Max Fischer: One dead fingernail.
    3. Rosemary Cross: Right. One dead fingernail.

    2. Rachel: Well, not in any monotheistic sense. Buddha, Krishna, the 'God Within'. Whatever you believe in. What do you believe in, Hanna?
