• Sir : You gotta be tough, Chance. That's the only way to survive in this life.

  Chance Marquis : Did it ever occur to you that maybe I already am tough?

  Sir : What? No, that's not what I meant.

  Chance Marquis : No, I didn't think so, but then why would you when you've spent your entire adult life being trained to discern that which is only directly in front of your face? So when you look at me, all you see is everything you aren't and would never want to be. You don't see strength, just cowardice - and, let's face it, a big fag. So, if you'll excuse me, I have a field of daisies to go frolic through.

• Chance Marquis : [voiceover]  My dad - a man who never met a rule he didn't try out at least once. Or a firearm.
