Taglines:

A quiet little town not far from here.

Quotes:

Vera: I believe smashing them is less a crime than making them. I am going to break two of your figurines first, and if you can demonstrate your knowledge of the Doctrine of Stoicism by holding back your tears, I'll stop.

Grace: There's a family with kids. Do the kids and make the mother watch. Tell her you'll stop if she can hold back her tears. I *owe* her that.

Grace: Some things you have to do yourself.

Grace: Goodbye, Tom.

[the town sits at dinner on the Fourth of July]::Ma Ginger: A police car has just been seen in town and it has just made the turn up Canyon Road! So they'll be here any minute.::Martha: Should I ring the bell?::Tom: No, Martha. Grace probably heard.

Chuck: God only knows what that woman is capable of.::Grace: You know she's not capable of anything.

[Tom offers a piece of bread to Grace]::Tom: You want to eat? You must be hungry.::Grace: I can't. I don't deserve that bread. I stole that bone. I've never stolen anything before. So now, now I have to punish myself. I was raised to be arrogant. So, I... I had to teach myself these things.::Tom: Well, it may be for your education. Grace, in this town... In these times... It's very impolite not to eat what's set before you.

Grace: But I've got nothing to offer them in return.::Tom: Oh, I think you have plenty to offer Dogville.

Grace: All I see is a beautiful little town in the midst of magnificent mountains. A place where people have hopes and dreams even under the hardest conditions.

[after Chuck sees Grace teaching his kids]::Chuck: How is it going otherwise with the fooling act?::Grace: I wasn't trying to fool anyone.::Chuck: I mean Dogville. Has it got you fooled yet?::Grace: I thought you were implying that I was trying to exploit the town.::Chuck: Wishful thinking. This town is rotten from the inside out and I wouldn't miss it if it fell into the gorge tomorrow. I see no charm here. But you seem to. Admit it, you've fallen for Dogville. The trees, the mountains, the simple folk. And if all that ain't got you fooled yet, I bet the cinnamon has. That damned cinnamon in those gooseberry pies. Dogville has everything that you ever dreamed of in the big city.::Grace: You're worse than Tom. How do you know what I dreamed of? You're from the city yourself, aren't you?::Chuck: That was a long time ago. I'm not that stupid anymore. I've found out that people are the same all over. Greedy as animals. In a small town they're just a bit less successful. Feed 'em enough, they'll eat till their bellies burst.::Grace: That's why you want to get rid of me... Because you can't stand that I remind you of what it was you came here to find.
