Cynthia: Do you know somebody called "the Cowboy"? Adam Kesher: The Cowboy? Cynthia: Yeah, the Cowboy. This guy, the Cowboy, wants to see you. Jason said he thought it'd be a good idea. Adam Kesher: Oh, Jason thought it'd be a good idea for me to see...
Gordie: Well, all the kids, instead of calling him Davie, they call him Lardass. Lardass Hogan. Even his little brother and sister calls him Lardass. At school, they put a sticker on his back that says "Wide-Load". And they rank him out and beat him ...
Harry Burns: I miss her. Sally Albright: I don't miss him. I really don't. Harry Burns: Not even a little? Sally Albright: You know what I miss? I miss the *idea* of him. Harry Burns: Maybe I only miss the *idea* of Helen... No, I miss the whole Hele...
The sweetest thing I could say about my mother and father is that if I had the choice, I would have picked them. But I don't have any belief in biology or DNA as compelling conduct. The idea that we owe people something because we're related to them ...

Miles Raymond: Did you read the latest draft, by the way? Jack: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Miles Raymond: And? Jack: It's great. I mean there are so many improvements. It's much tighter, just seems... I don't know, more congealed or something. Miles Raymond: Mm...
I may wish to return to my home in England, and I stand in New York, but ever since I was born I have been bound to this earth by a law that I have never been able to break--the law of gravity. I am told, however, that there is another law, a higher ...
An answer that does not resolve a quarrel makes a thousand new ones.
