Here are 10 of the best movie quotes about heartbreak and moving on.
1. Someone Great
“My hope is if we add up the ‘one mores’ they will equal a lifetime, and I’ll never have to get to the part where I let you go. But that’s not real, is it? There are no more one mores.

2. 500 Days Of Summer
“Look, I know you think she was the one, but I don’t. Now, I think you’re just remembering the good stuff. Next time you look back, I, uh, I really think you should look again.”–Rachel Hansen
3. Her
“Dear Catherine, I’ve been sitting here thinking about all the things I wanted to apologize to you for. All the pain we caused each other. Everything I put on you. Everything I needed you to be or needed you to say. I’m sorry for that. I’ll always love you ’cause we grew up together and you helped make me who I am. I just wanted you to know there will be a piece of you in me always, and I’m grateful for that. Whatever someone you become, and wherever you are in the world, I’m sending you love. You’re my friend to the end. Love, Theodore.”–Theodore
4. Marriage Story
“Criminal lawyers see bad people at their best, divorce lawyers see good people at their worst.”–Ted
5. Casablanca
“Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.”–Rick
6. Call Me By Your Name
“We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster that we go bankrupt by the age of thirty and have less to offer each time we start with someone new, but to make yourself feel nothing so as not to feel; what a waste.”–Mr. Perlman
7. When Harry Met Sally
Harry Burns: I miss her.
Sally Albright: I don’t miss him. I really don’t.
Harry Burns: Not even a little?
Sally Albright: You know what I miss? I miss the idea of him.
Harry Burns: Maybe I only miss the idea of Helen…No, I miss the whole Helen.
8. High Fidelity
“What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery, and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?”–Rob
