Gary Hallet: Did you kill Jimmy Angelov?
Sally Owens: Yeah, a couple of times.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aunt Jet Owens: And this is what comes from dabbling; I mean you can't practice witchcraft while you look down your nose at it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: All I want is a normal life.
Aunt Frances Owens: My darling girl, when are you going to understand that being normal is not necessarily a virtue? It rather denotes a lack of courage!
Sally Owens: Well, it's what I want.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: What would you do, Gilly?
Gillian Owens: What wouldn't I do... for the right guy?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: [Sally's letter to Gillian] Sometimes I feel like there's a hole inside of me, an emptiness that at times seems to burn. I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could probably hear the ocean. The moon tonight, there's a circle around it. Sign of trouble not far behind. I have this dream of being whole. Of not going to sleep each night, wanting. But still sometimes, when the wind is warm or the crickets sing... I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me. I want to be seen. I don't know. Maybe I had my happiness. I don't want to believe it but, there is no man, Gilly. Only that moon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gillian Owens: Hang onto your husbands, girls!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: Since when is being a slut a crime in this family?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jimmy Angelov: You know, girls, I'm feeling very into sisters right now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: Louie Lamour, who, by the way, was not a foreigner! He was from North Dakota, you asshole!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: Can love really travel back in time and heal a broken heart? Was it our jointed hands that finally lifted Marie's curse? I'd like to think so. But there are some things I know for certain: always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gillian Owens: Did you ever stick your arms out and spin and spin and spin? Well, that's what love is like.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: And I don't want them dancing naked under the full moon!
Aunt Jet Owens: No, of course. The nudity is entirely optional. As you well remember!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: [to Gary] The reason you're here and you don't know why is because I sent for you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: How many times did you read my letter? What possible evidence could you have gotten from it?
[Gary Hallet turns off tape recorder]
Gary Hallet: You really want to know?
[Sally nods her head "yes"]
Gary Hallet: I must have read your letter a thousand times.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kylie Owens: Mom, I'm worried about Antonia. Did you know that she put on her mouse ears and drives around town, all liquored up, NAKED?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[after they make a binder ring snap on a mother's finger]
Sally Owens: [to Gillian] Don't do that.
Gillian Owens: It wasn't me, it was you!
[Both giggling]
Mother: Oh I am so please to report this, and the top of the phone tree list is... wait a minute, it's Sally Owens
Gillian Owens: Whooo go Sal... now that was me!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Children: Witch! Witch! You're a bitch! Witch! Witch! You're a bitch!
Sally Owens: You'd think after three hundred years they'd come up with a better rhyme!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[all drunk]
Gillian Owens: You southern shrew!
Aunt Jet Owens: Ingrate!
Aunt Frances Owens: Goodie two shoes!
Sally: WITCH!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frances Owens: She heard the beetle ticking for your father's death all day long. She knew that when you hear the sound of the deathwatch beetle the man you love is doomed to die.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gillian Owens: Of course you're going to see me again. We'll grow old together. It's going to be you and me living in a big house... these two old biddies with all these cats. I bet we even die on the same day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aunt Jet Owens: You see that couple here? Well, he's having an affair with the babysitter and she can eat a pound cake in under a minute.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: It was the curse, wasn't it? He died because I loved him so much.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: We were going to open a botanical shop. Where Mike would get all the ingredients and I'd make the stuff. He really loved my mint-oatmeal shaving cream. He couldn't stop eating it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary Hallet: Strange town. Never spent this much on shampoo before, in my life.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Young Sally Owens: He will hear my call a mile away. He will whistle my favorite song. He can ride a pony backwards.
Young Gillian Owens: What are you doing?
Young Sally Owens: Summoning up a true love spell called Amas Veritas. He can flip pancakes in the air. He'll be marvelously kind. And his favorite shape will be a star. And he'll have one green eye and one blue.
Young Gillian Owens: Thought you never wanted to fall in love.
Young Sally Owens: That's the point. The guy I dreamed of doesn't exist. And if he doesn't exist, I'll never die of a broken heart.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Carla: But sally never gets pick cause everyone knows she's a w...
[pauses after Linda give her a look]
Carla: different!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gillian Owens: [possessed by Jimmy Angelov's spirit; crying] He wants me... just me. Everyone will be all right. Let him take me...
Sally Owens: Don't die on me, Gillian Owens.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary Hallet: Curses only have power when you believe them. And I don't.
[walks away, pauses then turns to Sally]
Gary Hallet: You know what? I wished for you too.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sally Owens: You should know she has the worst taste in men.
Sally Owens: [to Gillian] Well, you do.
