❝ oh, no. you have nothing. you believe in nothing, so you have nothing. ❞
❝ you are on a path from nothing to everything. ❞
❝ you had something, recently, you lost it. ❞
❝ you keep giving away your life. you don’t care much whether you live or die, do you ? ❞
❝ the world’s not what i thought it would be. ❞
❝ you’d rather die than live in a world with bears in the sky. ❞
❝ i can help you. but first, you must do something for me. you have to kiss me. ❞
❝ i have not ever been kissed. i do not know if i like it. ❞
❝ kissing is disgusting. but in a nice way … like … bleu cheese, or brandy. ❞
❝ don’t lose this. don’t give it away. ❞

❝ since when were you afraid of getting a little wet ? ❞
❝ you only get to fool me once. ❞
❝ i want knowledge over comfort, over all things, always. ❞
❝ they will kill you this time. ❞
❝ do you remember when we were young ? ❞
❝ i can taste you on the rain. ❞
❝ what else can i taste ? ❞
❝ we’re gonna rob a bank. you want some coffee ? ❞
❝ don’t push your luck. ❞
❝ you a rapist ? murderer ? ❞
❝ why are you smiling ? ❞
❝ it was a long time ago. ❞
❝ i spent the day waiting for a man who will not see me. ❞
❝ i have been in this place for a week and it has done nothing but eat my money. ❞
❝ they know nothing about my people here. ❞
❝ i wish you can see what i see. ❞
❝ i do not grant wishes. ❞
❝ have a little faith, [ … ] . ❞
❝ you’re my bodyguard. that means you guard my body. is that right ? ❞
❝ you do not look happy. ❞
❝ do not bleed before you are wounded. ❞
❝ c’mon, let me buy you a hot cocoa. ❞
❝ why are you talking about marshmallows ? like i’m WORRIED about marshmallows ! … yeah, i like marshmallows. ❞
❝ we’re here. well, i’m here. you’re somewhere else. ❞
❝ plenty of suffering to go around. ❞
❝ i think that’s enough. ❞
❝ i love this place. food’s not particularly good, but the ambiance ? unmissable. ❞
❝ who says you have to be hungry to eat ? ❞
❝ one of those things is science, okay ! the other is fantasy. you’re talking about them like they’re apples and oranges. ❞
❝ [ … ] , at best, you suffer from a lack of imagination. we’re gonna have to fix that. ❞
❝ you look like a man who’s fallen on hard times from a great height. ❞
❝ you can’t afford to be too careless with a lucky coin. ❞
❝ i plucked it out of thin air, is how i plucked it out of thin air, you bug eating nonce. ❞
❝ nice to meet you, asshole, i’m [ … ] , [ … ] to my friends. ❞
❝ i’m going to leave you with one question. if, at the end of this night, you do not end up in jail, will you believe in me ? ❞
❝ you believe in me now ? ❞
❝ i think i deserve a little more faith than that. ❞
❝ this is the only country in the world that wonders what it is. ❞
❝ it’s still just pretending, like i’m pretending now, like you. ❞
❝ what am i pretending ? ❞
❝ you are pretending you cannot believe in impossible things. ❞
❝ i’d be genuinely deluded if i believed in that shit. ❞
❝ if you are deluded, i believe it’s genuine. you don’t strike me as the disingenuous type. ❞
❝ no, see, delusions feel real, okay, that’s why they’re delusions. none of this feels real. it feels like a dream. ❞
❝ what a beautiful, beautiful thing to be able to dream when you’re not asleep. ❞
❝ i’ve crossed enough paths to know one in four people are rock stupid. even the smart ones have got some kind of delusion they believe in, whether it’s gods or ghosts. ❞
❝ do you believe in love ? ❞
❝ so you didn’t believe until you did, and then the world changed because you believed. ❞
❝ belief is only a product of the company we keep and how easily we scare. and you do not scare easily. ❞
❝ the only thing that scares me is being forgotten. i can survive most things, but not that. ❞
❝ very best part of memory is that it’s mostly about forgetting. ❞
❝ we remember what’s important to us. ❞
❝ i wonder what’ll be the first thing that drifts through your mind when you look back on this evening. ❞
