Those Who Know the Film Well or Own It....


There's a quote that I can't remember the exact wording to and it's really frustrating me. I watched this film in one of my classes, but I haven't had the chance to go out and buy it or rent it to see it again. I thought maybe someone would know the exact quote.

The line is spoken during the first dinner that Beast and Beauty have. He's standing near the fire place and she's sitting down. He says something along the lines of, "I am not bright enough for you" or something, and she responds with, "at least you are bright enought to know it" or something similar.

If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Here is the English translation taken from the subtitles:

BEAST: Besides being hideous, I'm not quick-witted.

BELLE: You're quick enough to recognize it.
