«Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon.

De Nile. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?»
«Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious...»
