Lois Quotes in Interstellar (2014)

Cooper: [Cooper sits to watch the video messages left for him over the years] Cooper.

Computer: Messages span twenty-three years.

Cooper: Play from the beginning.

[message from Tom starts playing]

Young Tom: Hey, Dad. Checkin' in, sayin' hi. Um... finished second in school, Miss Carlin's still giving me Cs though. Pulled me down, but second's not bad. Grandpa attended the ceremony. Um... oh, I met another girl, dad. I, uh... I really think this is the one. Her name is Lois. That's her right there.

[Tom holds up a photo of Lois, Cooper, overwhelmed with emotion, begins weeping]

Young Tom: Murphy stole grandpa's car. She crashed it, she's okay though.

Tom: [we see another message from Tom showing him as an adult] Hey, Dad. Look at this!

[Tom holds up his baby next to him]

Tom: You're a grandpa. His name's Jesse. I kind of wanted to call him Coop, but, Lois says maybe next time.

Lois: [to Jesse] Say bye-bye Grandpa. Bye-bye Grandpa.

Tom: [Cooper continues to watch his messages, the next one shows Tom looking despondent] Sorry it's been a while. Just... what with Jesse and all. Uh... grandpa died last week. We buried him out in the back plot next to mom and... Jesse. Just where we would've buried you if you'd ever... come back. Murph was there at the funeral. We don't see her that much, but she came for that.

Tom: [Tom hesitates] You're not listening to this, I know that. All these messages are just... drifting out there in the darkness. Lois says that, uh... I have to let you go. And, uh... so, I guess... I'm letting you go. I don't know where you are, Dad. But I hope that wherever you are you're at peace. Goodbye.

[Tom turns off the camera, Cooper touches the screen not wanting to let go when suddenly a message from a now adult Murph comes up]

Lois: Murph, are you done eating or would you like some more souffle?

Murph: I'm full, thanks. It was delicious.

Lois: Will you spend the night? Your room is exactly how you left it, it's ready, just...

Murph: No, I have to get back.

Lois: My sewing machine's in there but there's...

Murph: [uncomfortable] I, I have to... just... too many memories.

Jerry Lee: "Well, you see I was still married to my first wife when I married my second wife,so I never really was married to my second wife. And since I divorced my first wife a couple of years ago, I'm as free as a bird in a tree!"

Morgan Hanna, Lois: The shadow man came with satin sheets and tea, talking easily of magic, trick rabbits, and rings.

Conroy: He knew the precise location of sleeping and waking and drew me a map to prove it.

Sarah: But as I slept, I lost the north from the south of it, and he could not follow me there.
