I felt it. I'm perfect. I was perfect.
Nina Sayers
That was me seducing you. It needs to be the other way around.
Thomas Leroy
Perfection is not just about control. It is also about letting go. Surprise yourself so you can surprise the audience. Transcendence. Very few have it in them.
Thomas Leroy
I can dance the black swan, too.
Nina
Really? In 4 years every time you dance I see you obsessed getting each and every move perfectly right but I never see you lose yourself. Ever! All that discipline for what?
Thomas
Perfection is not just about control. It's also about letting go. Surprise yourself so you can surprise the audience. Transcendence! Very few have it in them.
Thomas
Beth! I'm so sorry to hear you're leaving the company.
Nina
What did you do to get this role? [about Thomas] He always said you were such a frigid little girl. What did you do to change his mind? Did you suck his cock?
Beth
Has he tried anything with you? He has a reputation. I have a right to be concerned, Nina. You've been staying late so many nights rehearsing. I hope he isn't taking advantage.
Erica
Good. I just don't want you to make the same mistake I did.
Erica
Not like that. I just mean as far as my career was concerned.
Erica
You could be brilliant, but you're a coward.
Thomas
I can't believe he calls her that. It's so gross.
Lily
I bet he'll be calling you little princess any day now.
Lily
Sure he will. You just got to let him lick your pussy.
