Edward Bloom: Who is she? Where does she live? Amos Calloway: Forget it kid, don’t waste your time. She’s out of your league. Edward Bloom: What do you mean? You don’t even know me. Amos Calloway: Sure I do! You were hot shit back in Hickville, but here in the real world, you got squat! You don’t have a plan, you don’t have a job, you don’t have anything...

Jesse: At least now we don’t have to pretend that each new sexual experience is a life-altering event.
Celine: I know. By now, you know, you’ve stuck it in so many places, it’s like about to fall off.
Jesse: Yeah, you know, and I can’t realistically expect that you’ve become anything but a total hoe, at this point.
Celine: Yeah, thank you.

Over Analyzing
is like walking through a forest at night, shining a flashlight to light your way. Suddenly you turn off the flashlight. You lose the bright beam of light on the narrow spot. But gradually your eyes start to adjust to the darkness, and you can suddenly see the whole scene.

You can pump money into poor areas, but without cultures that foster self-control, you won’t get social mobility. You can raise or lower tax rates, but without trust and confidence, companies won’t form and people will not invest in one another. You can establish elections but without responsible citizens, democracy won’t flourish.

I remember her breathing would slow down...
