Elyot:
What exactly were you remembering at that moment?
Amanda:
The Palace Hotel skating rink in the morning. Bright, strong sunlight and everybody whirling around in vivid colors. Then, you leaning down to put on my skates for me.
Elyot:
You'd fallen down a few moments before.
Amanda:
Oh, it was horrid of you to laugh at me. I felt so humiliated.
Elyot:
Poor darling.
Amanda:
Do you remember waking up in the morning and standing on the balcony, looking out across the valley?
Elyot:
Blue shadows on white snow. Cleanness, beyond belief. High above everything in the world. How beautiful it was.
Amanda:
Yes. Nice to think we had a few marvelous moments, isn't it?
Elyot:
A few? Why we had heaps, really! Only they slipped into the background and all we remember is the bad ones.
Amanda:
What fools we were to ruin it all! What utter, utter fools!
