• [after Jack saves Rose] 

  Col. Archibald Gracie : Well, the boy's a hero then! Good for you, son. Well done.

• Rose : [whispering to Jack]  Next it will be brandies in the smoking room.

  Col. Archibald Gracie : [to everybody]  Join me in a brandy, gentlemen?

  Rose : [whispering to Jack]  Now they will retreat into a cloud of smoke and congratulate each other on being masters of the universe.

• Ruth : Tell us of the accomodations in steerage, Mr. Dawson. I hear they're quite good on the ship.

  Jack : The best I've seen, Ma'am. Hardly any rats.

  [laughter from the table] 

  Cal Hockley : Mr. Dawson is joining us from the Third Class. He was of some assistance to my fiancée last night.

  Rose : It turns out that Mr. Dawson is quite a fine artist. He was kind enough to show me some of us work today.

  Cal Hockley : Rose and I differ somewhat in our opinion of fine art...

  [to Jack] 

  Cal Hockley : Not to impune you work, sir.

  Jack : [Jack shrugs it off as no offense; Jack looks down at his utensils, confused as which to use, he turns to Molly Brown]  Are these all for me?

  Molly Brown : Just start from the outside and work your way in.

  Ismay : He has every rivet in it, don't you, Thomas?

  Rose : Your ship is a wonder, Mr. Andrews, truly.

  Thomas Andrews : Thank you, Rose.

  Waiter : [to Jack]  How do you take your caviar, sir?

  Jack : No caviar for me, thanks. Never did like it much.

  Ruth : And where exactly do you live, Mr. Dawson?

  Jack : Well, right now, my address is the RMS Titanic, after that, I'm on God's good humor.

  Ruth : And how is it you have means to travel?

  Jack : I work my way from place to place, you know, tramp steamers and such, but I won my ticket on Titanic here in a lucky hand of poker, a very lucky hand.

  Col. Archibald Gracie : All life is a game of luck.

  Cal Hockley : A real man makes his own luck, Archie. Right, Dawson.

  Jack : Mm-hmm.

  Ruth : And you find that sort of rootless existence appealing, do you?

  Jack : Well, yes, ma'am, I do. I mean, I've got everything I need right here with me. I've got air in my lungs and a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's going to happen or...

  [Eating of piece of bread] 

  Jack : ... Who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night, I was sleeping under a bridge and now, here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people.

  [to the waiter] 

  Jack : I'll take some more of that.

  [Back to the table] 

  Jack : I figured life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You never know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you.

  [Seeing Cal getting ready to light up a cigarette, he throws Cal his lighter] 

  Jack : Here you go, Cal.

  [Back to the table] 

  Jack : To make each day count.

  Molly Brown : Well said, Jack.

  Col. Archibald Gracie : Here, here.

  Rose : [Raising her glass for a toast]  To making it count.

  [the table joins in on the toast]
