"Value this time in your life kids, because this is the time in your life when you still have your choices, and it goes by so quickly. When you're a teenager you think you can do anything, and you do. Your twenties are a blur. In your thirties you raise your family, you make a little money and you think to yourself, "What happened to my twenties?" Your forties you grow a little pot belly you grow another chin. The music starts to get too loud and one of your old girlfriends from high school becomes a grandmother. Your fifties you have a minor surgery. You'll call it a procedure, but it's a surgery. Your sixties you have a major surgery, the music is still loud but it doesn't matter because you can't hear it anyway. Seventies, you and the wife retire to Fort Lauderdale, you start eating dinner at two, lunch around ten, breakfast the night before. And you spend most of your time wandering around malls looking for the ultimate in soft yogurt and muttering, "how come the kids don't call?" By your eighties, you've had a major stroke, and you end up babbling to some Jamaican nurse who your wife can't stand. Any questions?"
- Billy Crystal, City Slickers
"The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. I got about fifty feet out and suddenly the great beast appeared before me. I tell you he was ten stories high if he was a foot. As if sensing my presence, he let out a great bellow. I said, 'Easy, big fella!' And then, as I watched him struggling, I realized that something was obstructing its breathing. From where I was standing, I could see directly into the eye of the great fish. Mammal. Whatever. Then, from out of nowhere, a huge tidal wave lifted me, tossed me like a cork, and I found myself right on top of him ... face to face with the blow-hole! I could barely see from the waves crashing down upon me but I knew something was there. So I reached my hand in, felt around, and pulled out the obstruction!" - Jason Alexander, Seinfeld
"What do you suppose is in that cocoon? A butterfly? No, it's much more beautiful than that. That's a moth cocoon. It's ironic... butterflies get all the attention, but moths, they spin silk. They're stronger. They're faster. You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it, take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free... but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it." - John Locke, LOST
"Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history. No purpose or place. We have no Great War, no Great Depression. Our Great War is a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie Gods and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." - Brad Pitt, Fight Club
