“- Aunt Alicia: Love, my dear Gigi, is a thing of beauty like a work of art, and like a work of art it is created by artists. The greater the artist the greater the art. And what makes an artist?

- Aunt Alicia: Gigi, you're from another planet.”
Isabel Jeans - Aunt Alicia
Leslie Caron - Gigi

“Art will give you crowns in heaven and laurels on Earth, but also, it will tear your heart out and leave you lonely. You'll be a shanda for your loved ones. An exile in the desert. A gypsy. Art is no game! Art is dangerous as a lion's mouth. It'll bite your head off.”
Judd Hirsch - Uncle Boris

Sir Charlie Chaplin - Hynkel - Dictator of Tomania

“Sometimes girls like you go down and down until at last they fall victim to narcotics!”

Virginia Weidler - Harriet Thomas

“A toast... to us, to our last summer of immature, adolescent decadence.”
