How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Annie Hall.
Quote #1
MISS REED: You should be ashamed of yourself.
ALVY: Why? I was just expressing a healthy sexual curiosity.
MISS REED: Six-year-old boys don't have girls on their minds.
ALVY: I did.
CLASSMATE: For God's sake, Alvy, even Freud speaks of a latency period.
ALVY: Well, I never had a latency period. I can't help it.
Alvy wastes no time in introducing the concept of sex, which makes it clear right up front how important it is to him, especially when it comes to relationships.
Quote #2
ALVY: It's always some kind of an excuse. You used to think that I was very sexy. When we first started going out, we had sex constantly. We're probably listed in The Guinness Book of World Records.
They aren't, but the world's largest waffle is. It weighs over 110 pounds!
Quote #3
ROBIN: Alvy, don't. You're using sex to express hostility.
ALVY: "Why do you always reduce my animal urges to psychoanalytic categories?" he said as he removed her brassiere.
The small portion we see of Alvy's second marriage, to Robin, shows how Alvy and the writer were on totally different pages when it came to sex.
