Alithea Binnie: Love is a gift. It's a gift of oneself given freely. It's not something one can ever ask for.
Genie: Alithea, how can it be a mistake to love someone entirely?
Alithea Binnie: If there is fate, who can say? But in the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul, I chose a memento.
I like it. Whatever it is, I'm sure it has an interesting story.
Genie: The truth is, I am just an idiot who has been extravagantly unlucky.
Genie: So, what would you wish for? What is your heart's desire?
My name is Alithea. My story is true. You're more likely to believe me, however, if I tell it as a fairytale...
Genie: I visited the Collider, an interesting gizmo...
Clementine: It's not a fact, it's an opinion, and you're wrong!
Iblis: You are not wanted here! If she does not wish, you are doomed!
Clementine: She's been talking to herself again.
Alithea Binnie: The moment I made that wish, I took away your power to grant it.
Genie: I am just a fool who has been extravagantly unlucky.
Alithea Binnie: How can you rely on those called upon to wish?
Alithea Binnie: I know all the stories there are about trickster Djinn, and the ways in which they manipulate wishing to their own ends.
Clementine: Why would Dr. Binnie waste her time and intelligence studying the ways of others instead of upholding our own?
My name is Alithea. My story is true. You're more likely to believe me, however, if I tell it as a fairytale.
Alithea Binnie: So once upon a time, when humans hurtled across the sky on metal wings, when they wore webbed feet and walked on the bottom of the sea, when they held in their hands glass tiles that could coax love songs from the air, there was a woman, adequately happy and alone. Alone by choice. Happy because she was independent, living off the exercise of her scholarly mind. She was a narratologist who sought to find the truths common to the stories of humankind. To that end, once or twice a year, she ventured to strange lands: to China, the South Seas, and the timeless cities of the Levant, where her kind gathered to tell stories about stories

Clementine: Oi, fuckface!
Alithea Binnie: I know all the stories there are about trickster Djinn, and the ways in which they manipulate wishing to their own ends.
Genie: We exist only if we are REAL to others
Alithea Binnie: I like it. Whatever it is, I'm sure it has an interesting story.
Iblis: You are not wanted here! If she does not wish, you are doomed!
Genie: Hope is a monster. And I am its plaything.
Alithea Binnie: There's no story about wishing that is not a cautionary tale. None end happily. Not even the ones that are supposed to be jokes. Genie: But you and I are the authors of this story, and we can avoid all traps.
Alithea Binnie: This is the story you've been avoiding telling me all along. Genie: This is the story I've avoided telling even myself
Alithea Binnie: Well, I'm beginning to think that I'm in the presence of a trickster. Genie: That would be so much better. My work would be so much easier. But the truth is, I am just an idiot who has been extravagantly unlucky. Alithea Binnie: Well, I have to take your word for that.
Genie: So, what would you wish for? What is your heart's desire? Alithea Binnie: Now, let's not get ahead of ourselves. I need to take this slow. Genie: I have all the time in the world.
Prof. Günhan: You are behaving like a child. Do you know that? Alithea Binnie: You know, I am actually a child.
Genie: What was the complexion of this husband? Alithea Binnie: His complexion? Uh, in the beginning, it was... glowing.
Alithea Binnie: Do you know the answer to her question? Genie: What women most desire? Alithea Binnie: Yeah. Genie: Do you not know? If you don't know, I cannot tell you. Alithea Binnie: Well, surely we don't all want the same thing. Genie: Madam, your yearnings are not at all clear to me.
Genie: She Genie: was not beautiful, she was beauty itself.
Genie: I might have become more, but for Solomon. Alithea Binnie: King Solomon? Genie: Blessed be his memory. He came from across the deserts to woo her. Alithea Binnie: Didn't she go to him? Genie: No. Never. Alithea Binnie: But it's in all the holy books. All the stories and the paintings. And Handel wrote music about it. Genie: Madam, I was there. Solomon came to her.
Alithea Binnie: So you are electromagnetic? Genie: As you are dust, I am made of subtle fire.
