[trying to practice his vows] With this hand, I will cup your...
[unconsciously holds hands before his chest in a suggestive manner, and is then horrified] Oh goodness, no!

With this hand I will lift your sorrows. Your cup will never be empty, for I will be your wine. With this candle, I will light your way into darkness. With this ring, I ask you to be mine.

If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain. If you cut me with a knife, it's still the same. And I know her heart is beating, and I know that I am dead; yet the pain here that I feel, try and tell me it's not real, and it seems that I still have a tear to shed.

If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain. In the ice or in the sun it's all the same. And I feel my heart is aching, though it doesn't beat it's breaking. Yet the pain here that I feel...try and tell me it's not real. And I know that I am dead. It seems that I still have some tears to shed.

I was a bride. My dreams were taken from me. Well now... now I've stolen them from someone else. I love you, Victor. But you are not mine.

Victor would have to give up the life he had forever. He would have to repeat his vows in the Land of the Living, and drink from the Wine of Ages. This would stop his heart forever. Only then would he be free to give it to you.

Victoria: Oh, Hildegarde... what if Victor and I don't...
like each other?
Maudeline: Humph! As if
that has anything to do with marrige. Do you suppose your father and I
like each other?
Victoria: Surely you must, a little?
Maudeline and Finis: Of course not!

Maudeline:
[as the dead ran rampant] They must be from your side of the family!
Finis: Certainly not! If my Grandfather Everglot could see this he'd be turning in his grave!
Grandfather: (booming) Finis! (they turn to see a skeleton who looks just like the portrait of Finis's grandfather, who says politely) Where do you keep the spirits?
