'Darling Companion' movie quotes include some of the most clever lines in this 2012 drama/comedy film starring Diane Keaton and Kevin Kline. When Beth (Keaton) saves a scraggly looking stray dog from the freeway on a snowy Denver day, she quickly develops an incredible attachment to the animal. So much so, that when her husband, Joseph (Kline), accidentally loses the dog, aptly named "Freeway," after their daughter's wedding, Beth goes completely haywire. See a favorite quote from 'Darling Companion' listed? Vote it up! And, if you have a personal favorite quote that's missing, by all means, add it to the list.

'Darling Companion' is directed and co-written by Lawrence Kasdan ('The Accidental Tourist,' 'The Big Chill') and it also stars Dianne Wiest, Richard Jenkins, Elisabeth Moss, Mark Duplass, Ayelet Zurer and Sam Shepard. Lawrence Kasdan says the idea for the film came about when he and his wife, Meg Kasdan (a co-writer of 'Darling Companion'), lost a dog and later found him.

In 'Darling Companion,' when Joseph loses Beth's dog, she immediately springs into action, enlisting the help of each of the remaining wedding guests to help with the search for the animal -- who is loose in the Rocky Mountains. Beth is furious with Joseph for his carelessness, though some of her anger is about a lot more than just a missing dog.

    Love Is Love


    Joseph: "We haven't lost a person -- we've lost a dog."
    Beth: "Love is love. Does it matter if it's a dog?"


    Again, 'Darling Companion' isn't so much about a missing dog -- it's about the search for that missing dog, and the feelings that surface as each of the characters deals with the changes in their lives, Beth and Joseph included.

    More About Your Patients


    Beth: "You know more about your patients than you do your own family..."


    Beth has a point: Dr. Joseph Winter does tend to spend more time focusing on the patients in his care, than on the problems and needs of his wife and daughter.

    It's Not Menopause


    Joseph: "This is a difficult time for you, for both of us. And, especially for a woman, there are physical changes that affect everything..."
    Beth: "Oh, tell me about being a woman."
    Joseph: "I think that the anger you're feeling is not actually about me, it's hormonal."
    Beth: "No, it's not menopause. It actually is about you."


    Uh oh, Dr. Joseph Winter is treading on extremely thin ice here. When confronted with an overly-emotional wife who's worried sick about her missing dog -- and her life -- blaming it on menopause is not a good idea.

    Things That Bug Me


    Joseph: "The things that bug me about you never meant anything compared to how much I love you."


    Joseph loves his wife. He makes that quite clear in this quote. People who've been married for a long time learn to adjust to a partner's quirks, and the things that irritate them mean very little when you look at the big picture.

    Try Harder


    Grace: "These next few weeks may be...hard on mom."
    Joseph: "Oh she'll be fine."
    Grace: "Will you make an effort?"
    Joseph: "Well, I always do."
    Grace: "Will you try harder...promise?"
    Joseph: "Of course I will."


    Grace recognizes that her mother is having a difficult time with the idea of being an empty nester. Joseph is so wrapped up in his work that he fails to realize that's what's going on.
