[Polk greets Snyder] FBI Agent Polk: Sit down and shut up, will ya? Try not to live up to all my expectations.
I grew up with no money. My kids will grow up with a lot of money and so it's really important to me, and it will always be a part of my parenting, to keep them conscientious and connected socially to other people.
Power doesn't back up in the face of a smile, or in the face of a threat of some kind of nonviolent loving action. It's not the nature of power to back up in the face of anything but some more power.
I think the most romantic thing you can do is just turn up. Turn up when it's difficult for you. Travel halfway around the world or just up the road. Whatever it is, just be there.

John: Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up, we'll all get up, it'll be anarchy.
