East of Eden

Aron Trask: "Staying out again tonight?"
Cal Trask: "What difference does it make? You're here, aren't you? You're the one he wants!"

Abra: "Why is he always alone?"
Aron Trask: "Because he wants to be."
Abra: "Nobody wants to be alone."

"It's gonna work because it's got to work and it's got to work because I said so."

Cal Trask: "Hey Aron, why don't you ask me where I've been?"
Aron Trask: "Would you tell me?"
Cal Trask: "No."

"I was even thinking I was bad. I love you even though I'm afraid of you. Maybe someday I won't be."

"Because he tried to hold me, he tried to tie me down! Nobody holds me!"
[being ask by Cal why she shot his father]

"But you must give him some sign, Mr. Trask, some sign that you love him... or he'll never be a man. All his life he'll feel guilty and alone unless you release him."

"If you want to give me a present, give me a good life. That's something I can value."
