Sarah: You know, you're not a bartender.

Salesman: Have you tried the Internet? I mean, it really works. You know, I met my wife online, and she...

Sarah: Chicken. Now.

************************************

Sarah: Why not?

Bragging date guy: And I've been to Italy a lot too. I just got back from Rome...where I took this fabulous in-depth tour called "As the Romans Do." The guide was incredible.

Bragging date guy: Before that, Switzerland. Well, I got caught in a snow storm.

Sarah: I almost died in a blizzard once.

Bragging date guy: I lived up in the Alps for a year.

Sarah: They had to cut me out of the snow with scissors.

Bragging date guy: My aunt had a farm. In the morning, we'd warm ourselves with the coals of the fire. I learned to make goat cheese.It was very Heidi.

******************************

Sarah: Well, I just think it's wonderful how much you care about your children, Peter. Really. It's not always the case. I'm a teacher, I know.

Peter: Well, it's just my daughter. She's 14. But she's everything to me.

Bob: Thank you.

Sarah: You did sleep with June, didn't you?

Bob: Does it matter? Really?

Sarah: It's just that you told me nothing happened.

Bob: Well, I knew we'd be great together, I didn't want anything to get in the way of that. And we were.

Sarah: Yeah.

Bob: That was fun. Thanks a lot. I'll call you. You mad at me?

Sarah: No, I'm not mad at you.

Bob: Good, I was afraid something had changed...

Sarah: I'm mad at myself for ever having trusted you. For not listening to that voice in my head that said: "He is a shallow, self-centered bastard." Which is what you are, you stupidhead! OK. Maybe I have been teaching preschool too long, but you took advantage of me. You knew how vulnerable I was. You knew I was the weak impala of the herd. And you pounced on that with that whole sensitive dad-of-the-year act. And, "we're adopting a puppy." And the fake professor thing with these fake glasses. These aren't even real, are they? Oh, sorry. I just hate guys like you. I hate guys like you!

瑞士的小海蒂

《海蒂》(也叫《小海蒂》)是瑞士著名儿童文学作家约翰娜·斯比丽的代表作。这是一部永远也不会过时的小说。

故事情节淳朴而温馨：善良、单纯的小姑娘海蒂在自己很小的时候就失去了双亲，成了孤儿。五岁时姨妈把她送到阿尔卑斯山上，跟性情古怪的爷爷住在一起。很快，她就爱上了山上的一切。她用她的爱心帮助性格孤僻的祖父回到人群中，给失明的老奶奶带去欢笑，教会羊倌彼得认字识字。大家都很喜欢海蒂。

可姨妈又把她送到城里的一户人家去陪伴有残疾的小姐克拉拉。那里虽然衣食无忧，但女管家对她非常严厉，女仆也瞧不起她，最主要的是没有大山和自由，海蒂由此患上了思乡病。最后，海蒂终于又回到山上，并且，还让残疾女孩克拉拉奇迹般的恢复了独立行走的能力。

《海蒂》出版至今已过百年，但“海蒂”的形象对广大读者仍有着巨大的吸引力。它先后被改编成广播剧、电影、电视、卡通片、连环画等，译成世界上几十种文字，发行量不计其数，在世界各地广为传播。《海蒂》是一本经典的儿童文学作品，一本世界性的畅销书。

约翰娜·斯比丽是一位举世闻名的儿童文学家。从1879年起她写了大量的作品，这些故事的书名总冠以“献给孩子以及那些热爱孩子的人们的故事”。其中最著名的就是《海蒂》。

1937年上映的同名电影《海蒂》由著名童星秀兰·邓波儿(Shirley Temple)主演。秀兰·邓波儿是美国电影史上最出色的童星之一，导演艾伦德万将这部古典小说拍得流畅动人，邓波儿的演出更是无懈可击。

让不少中国80后印象深刻的还有根据《海蒂》改编成的日本动画片《阿尔卑斯山的少女》。这部动画片曾在中国大陆、香港、台湾及欧洲地区播出，也是日本电视动画史上首次尝试海外实地取景的作品，在约三周的取景期间内，包括高畑勋、宫崎骏、小田部羊一等主要工作人员皆有参与，在作品中生动呈现了故事背景地的生活风貌。之后本片在欧洲播映时，还曾传出竟无人相信这部作品是日本所制作的轶闻。
