Language appreciation  Joe : You know, people who can't handle liquor shouldn't drink it. Ann: "If I were dead and buried and I heard your voice， beneath the sod my heart of dust would still rejoice." Do you know that poem? 济慈的诗：哪怕我已死去,被安葬,尘土之下的心也会为听到你的声音而欢悦 （安妮公主出逃露宿街头初见记者JOE）

 Ann: Would you be so kind as to tell me where I am?  Joe: This is what is laughingly known as my apartment… Ann: Have I been here all night alone? Joe: If you don’t count me, yes. Ann: So I’ve spent the night here with you. Joe: Well, I don’t know I use these words exactly. (安妮在JOE 家过夜醒来)

Ann: You beast, you’re all right. Joe: I’m sorry. It was just a joke. Ann: You never hurt your hand. Joe: All right, let’s go. Look out! (JOE 在”真理之门”和安妮开玩笑)

Well, life isn't always what one likes, isn't it? 嗯，人生不会尽如人意，不是吗？ Lift up your head princess, if not, the crown falls. 请抬起你的头， 我的公主，不然皇冠会掉下来的

Were I not completely aware of my duty to my family and my country, I would not have come back tonight, or indeed ever again. “如果我不知道我对国家和家庭的责任，我今晚就不会回来了。永远不会回来。
