We are human, and we suffer, and unlike the animals on the farm, we are self-aware, and we know that we suffer, and it doesn't hurt more or less if God caused it or could stop it, at least for me. I am definitely of the school that believes God has b...
I think if I've learned anything about friendship, it's to hang in, stay connected, fight for them, and let them fight for you. Don't walk away, don't be distracted, don't be too busy or tired, don't take them for granted. Friends are part of the glu...
When I first got sick, they told me I had a year to live, and I was writing my memoir really fast. There were really weird things happening with my nervous system and my heart and stuff, and it didn't look like I was gonna make it, so I was writing r...
I had an incredibly full life with my imagination: I used to have all sorts of trolls and things; I had a wonderful world around my toys and invented people. I don't mean I had imaginary friends; I just had this big imagination thing going on. I didn...
I actually love Twitter and Instagram. I do think it's so strange to think that 20 years ago, people would never have known personal stuff about musicians and actors, but I like it. As long as I don't obsessively overshare, it's OK. And when I do ove...
I have a whole iPod full of exceptionally bad music, truly awful stuff including a disproportionate number of one hit wonders from the early '80s and lots of hair bands. I find it utterly impossible to love a song until I know every single word, so l...
My kids, they're like nine or ten years old right now so you give 'em responsibilities just to keep them up on things. It ain't just all about getting on the skateboard or putting your Heelys on, and swimming in the pool all the time. You gotta do st...
My brother Trev went to the Professional Performing Arts School in New York, and he used to do his monologues and stuff and rehearse in our apartment. So I used to hear him all the time doing these things over and over and over. And when I was a litt...
Max: I brought you flowers. Ida: What'm I do with flowers? Max: Cheer up. Ida: How? By worrying that you spend money on stuff that's just gon' wilt and die? Max: [to Vincent] See what I mean? I didn't buy you flowers, Mom. He did.
Margo: Oh, uh, can we get stuffed crust? Edith, Agnes, Jerry the Minion, Stuart the Minion: OOOOHHHH, stuffed crust. Gru: I'll stuff you all in the crust! [Agnes giggles] Agnes: You're funny! Gru: Just don't come out of that room again!
Irene: What do you do? Driver: I drive. Irene: Like a limo driver? Driver: No, like, for movies. Irene: Oh. You mean all the car chases and stuff? Driver: Yeah. Irene: Isn't that dangerous? Driver: It's only part-time. Mostly I work at a garage.
Chunk: Mikey, Mikey, come on, our parents are worried. It's dinnertime. Why don't we go home? Mikey: Home? What home? In a couple more hours, it ain't gonna be home anymore. Come on, guys, this is our time. Our last chance to see if there really is a...
Mikey: It was a retropactum! Brandon Walsh: Retrospective! Mikey: See! That's what I said! You always contradict me... I know what I was saying. It was on the history of Astoria and these are the rejects! Chunk: Kinda like us... Mikey. The Goonies. M...
Regina: Quiet please. Quiet. Order, order! Please! Halina: She's a lawyer, she likes order. Regina: Listen, just listen. The watch we put under the flower pots and the money we stuff in the violin. Father: Will I still be able to play? Wladyslaw Szpi...
[repeated lines] Chuck Yeager: Hey, Ridley, ya got any Beeman's? Jack Ridley: Yeah, I think I got me a stick. Chuck Yeager: Loan me some, will ya? I'll pay ya back later. Jack Ridley: Fair enough.
Eric Sevareid: [broadcasting] There's another hold from NASA, another delay. Alan Shepard sits there, patiently waiting. What can be going through a man's mind at this moment? [cut to Shepard in his space capsule] Alan Shepard: Gordo?... Gordo, I hav...
[Gordo has been ordered to provide a sperm sample] Gordon Cooper: Yeah, but uh, nurse, how am I supposed to uh... Nurse Murch: The best results seem to be obtained through fantasization, accompanied by masturbation, followed by ejaculation. Gordon Co...
Maya: So is it kind of about death and mortality, or...? Miles Raymond: Mrnmm, yeah... but not really. It shifts around a lot. Like you also start to see everything from the point of view of the father. And some other stuff happens, some parallel nar...
Jordan Belfort: Everybody needs something. Alden Kupferberg: Nah, Amish and Buddhists don't need a thing. Jordan Belfort: I'm not talking about Amish and Buddhists, I'm talking about ordinary blue-collar people who want to get rich and own stuff!
Heckles always vary. I mean, some people are just drunk, and it's nonsense, or, you know, some people just want to just repeat something I've said or add their own two cents about an opinion, but because of the nature of what I do and who I am, like,...
I am fascinated by the places that music comes from, like fife-and-drum blues from southern Mississippi or Cajun music out of Lafayette, Louisiana, shape-note singing, old harp singing from the mountains - I love that stuff. It's like the beginning o...
