Quote

Howl nói: "Tôi nghĩ, hẳn là từ giờ trở đi, chúng ta sẽ sống hạnh phúc." - và cô nghĩ anh nói thật. Sophie biết, sống hạnh phúc với Howl sẽ là một giao kèo tốt lành với nhiều sự kiện hơn so với bất cứ câu chuyện nào được kể lại; mặc dầu vậy, cô quyết định sẽ thử. "Chắc phải đáng sợ lắm." - Howl nói thêm.- Và anh sẽ bóc lột tôi. - Sophie nói.- Và rồi em sẽ cắt vụn quần áo của tôi để dạy tôi.
