The Twilight Saga: Eclipse Quotes

Charlie Swan: [seeing Edward & Jake close to physically fighting each other] Hey, hey, hey... Easy, guys, easy... Let's take it down a notch, all right? What's going on?
Jacob Black: [pause] I kissed Bella.
[pause]
Jacob Black: And she broke her hand.
[pause]
Jacob Black: Punching my face.

[pause]
Jacob Black: It was a complete misunderstanding.

Jessica: When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like, astronauts, president... or in my case, a princess.
[the students and parents chuckle lightly]
Jessica: When we were ten, they asked again. We answered, a rock star, cowboy, or in my case, a gold medalist. But now that we're grown up, they

want a serious answer. Well, how about this. Who the hell knows?
[the other students cheer and applaud]
Jessica: This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions; this is a time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere. Fall in love... a lot. Major in philosophy, because there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind, and

change it again, because nothing's permanent. So, make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask what we want to be, we won't have to guess... we'll know.

Edward Cullen: I'm from a different era. Things were a lot less complicated.
[pause]
Edward Cullen: And if I'd have met you back then, I would've... courted you. We'd have taken chaperone strolls, and ice tea on the porch...
[smiles]
Edward Cullen: [pause; stands up]
Edward Cullen: I may have

stolen a kiss or two, but only after asking your father's permission. I would've got down on one knee...
[kneels]
Edward Cullen: and I would have presented you with a ring.
[opens box with the ring and places it in her hand]
Edward Cullen: This was my mother's.
[Bella smiles in spite of herself]
Edward

Cullen: Isabella Swan, I promise to love you every moment of forever. Would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?
Bella Swan: [after a moment, smiling] Yes.

Charlie Swan: Hey, you want a sandwhich?
Bella Swan: No, I'm good.
Charlie Swan: Well, his sister I like.
Bella Swan: Alice, yeah she's great.
[scoffs]
Bella Swan: ... Hey dad, I was wondering... why didn't you get re-married, after mom?
Charlie Swan: Uh,

I don't know... uh I guess I haven't met the right gal.
[scoffs]
Charlie Swan: why?
Bella Swan: I don't know. I thought you just maybe gave up on the whole institution of it, of marriage... But do you think theres any value in it?
Charlie Swan: Yep. Yeah, marriage has value... when your older, much older. Like your

mother, uh, seemed to work out fine for her the second time around, later in life.
Bella Swan: Yeah I guess.
Charlie Swan: I mean, you definitely don't want to have to get married cause your not... um careful.
Bella Swan: ...what?
Charlie Swan: Your know what I'm talking about. Theres... things that you

need to think about if your going to be... physically intimate...
Bella Swan: Okay, don't have "the talk", please.
Charlie Swan: It's just as embarrassing for me as it is for you.
Bella Swan: I doubt that. And don't bother, cause mom bet you to it like ten years ago.
Charlie Swan: Well, you didn't have

a boyfriend ten years ago.
Bella Swan: I'm sure things work the same way.
Charlie Swan: ...alright, so, you guys are taking precaution?
Bella Swan: Okay, dad, please just don't worry about... that. Edward is... old school.
Charlie Swan: Old school, great. What's that, like a code for something?

Bella Swan: Oh my God, dad, I'm a virgin!
Charlie Swan: Ah, di-di-di-di, okay... glad we covered that.
Bella Swan: [runs up stairs] Me too!
Charlie Swan: Virgin... I'm liking Edward a little more now.
[Bites sandwhich]

Embry Call: Glad you're here Bella, maybe we can get a break from Jake's obsessive inner monologue.
Paul: I wish Bella would call!
Jared: I wish Bella wouldn't call!
Embry Call: Maybe I should call Bella!
Quil Ateara: Maybe I should call Bella and hang up!
Jacob

Black: [laughs] Alright, you can shut up now.

Emmett Cullen: Trying to walk and chew gum at the same time again, Bella?
Bella Swan: I punched a werewolf in the face.
Emmett Cullen: Badass. You're going to be one tough little newborn.
Bella Swan: Tough enough to take you on.
[Rosalie throws newspaper down on table and storms out; Bella looks at

Emmett]

Edward Cullen: [dropping her off; about Jacob] Doesn't he own a shirt?
Bella Swan: [smiling; after a few seconds, voice concerned] I'm good here, you should go.
Edward Cullen: I'm not gonna be gone long.
Bella Swan: Don't rush. You need to hunt.
[pause; they kiss intimately & Jake looks away; smiling]

Bella Swan: Ok, maybe rush a little bit.
[walks to Jake]
Jacob Black: [with a smile, coming to meet her] Hey beautiful.
Bella Swan: [she smiles briefly] Hey.
[they hug, Jake holding her a little more tightly]

Edward Cullen: [about Jake in the tent] This might sound odd, but I'm glad you're here.
Jacob Black: [w/ a smile] Meaning, "As much as I'd love to kill you im glad she's warm."
Edward Cullen: If we weren't natural enemies, and you weren't trying to steal my reason for existing, I might actually like you.
Jacob

Black: [beat] Well, if you weren't planning on sucking the life out of the girl I love, I might
[thinks about it; laughs]
Jacob Black: No. Not even then.
[Edward smiles]

[last lines]
Bella Swan: And I wanna tie myself to you, in every way humanly possible.
Edward Cullen: [smiles] Starting with a wedding.
Bella Swan: [thoughtful] Actually, something a little more difficult first. And maybe even dangerous.
[stands up looking down at him]
Bella Swan: We have to tell

Charlie.
Edward Cullen: [laughs a little] It's highly dangerous.
Bella Swan: [nods] It's a good thing you're bulletproof.
[pause]
Bella Swan: I'm gonna need that ring.

Bella Swan: [about her kissing Jacob] You saw?
Edward Cullen: No. But Jacob's thoughts are pretty loud.
Bella Swan: I don't know what happened.
Edward Cullen: You love him.
Bella Swan: [pause, after thinking a moment] I love you more.
Edward Cullen: [beat] I

know.

Bella Swan: [Jake just found out Bella plans to marry Edward] Jake, please!
Jacob Black: [seething with fury] I'm done! I am so done!
Bella Swan: [wanting to make things right] What can I do?
Jacob Black: You can't do anything. I can, by going out there and killing something!
[continues walking away]

Bella Swan: [shaky with intense emotion, stammers a little] No! You're not thinking clearly! Don't do that!
Jacob Black: Maybe I'll get myself killed and make it simple for you.
Bella Swan: No! Just, Jake, stay!
Jacob Black: Why?
[walks towards her]
Jacob Black: Give me

one good reason.
Bella Swan: [starting to tear up] Because I don't want to lose you!
Jacob Black: [beat] That's not good enough.
Bella Swan: Because you're too important.
Jacob Black: [shakes his head] Still not good enough.
[turns and walks away quickly]
Bella Swan:

[shouts, almost frantice] Jacob!
[he stops; Bella looks a little desperate as she searches for what to say or do; eventually]
Bella Swan: Kiss me!
[he turns around, surprised & disbelieving what he heard; Bella still shaking]
Bella Swan: I'm- asking you... to kiss me.
[beat, then he comes up to her; they kiss, at first tentative

then more deeply; eventually they stop, but remain very close to each other]
Jacob Black: [puts his hands on her face & kisses her softly once more; after a few seconds, in a quiet voice] That should have been our first kiss.
[his head lingers near hers, no longer mad to the point of recklessness; eventually]
Jacob Black: I gotta go.

[looks her in the eyes, as if promising he'll be careful]
Jacob Black: I'll be back.
[walks away; she stands there a while longer, deep in thought]

Bella Swan: Edward?
Edward Cullen: If you ever touch her against her will again...
Bella Swan: Edward! Don't do this!
Jacob Black: She's not sure what she wants!
Bella Swan: Don't do this here!
Edward Cullen: Let me give you a clue: wait for her to say the words.

Jacob Black: Fine, and she will.
Bella Swan: Jacob, just go, okay?

Edward Cullen: [on the bed, kissing passionately; as she starts unbuttoning her shirt] Stop trying to take your clothes off.
Bella Swan: [still close to each other] You want to do that part?
Edward Cullen: Not tonight.
[long pause; moves away; both sit up on the bed]
Bella Swan: [after a little while]

You... You mean, you don't...
[sighs, disappointed and a little embarrassed]
Bella Swan: That's fine.
Edward Cullen: [looking at her intently] Believe me, I want to.
[pause]
Edward Cullen: I just want to be married to you first.
Bella Swan: [pause] You really make me feel like I'm some

sort of, like, villain trying to steal your virtue or something.
Edward Cullen: [he smiles] It's not *my* virtue I'm concerned about.

Bella Swan: [after telling her why he doesn't want to turn her, & it's not what she expected] I thought- you were afraid I'd be too different. Like, I wouldn't be warm, or smell the same.
Edward Cullen: [he smiles; lays a hand on her cheek] You'll always be my Bella...
[pause; they kiss and he holds her close]
Edward Cullen:

My Bella just less fragile.
[both smile]

Edward Cullen: [to Jacob, whose holding Bella as she sleeps & looking at her tenderly] Can you at least *attempt* to control your thoughts?
Jacob Black: [beat; looking at Edward] I really get under that ice-cold skin of yours, don't I.
[tilts his head]
Jacob Black: What? Are you doubting her feelings for you?
[Edward

says nothing, looks cross; Jake scoffs]
Jacob Black: Nice. So picking my brain is OK, but letting me into yours, forget it.
