Chasing Fire (2013)

Gigette Reyes: Cynthia

Quotes 

• Kristin : Mom, I love Shane!

  Cynthia : Bullshit! I love Jesus, but I would never let him do me doggy style.

• Cynthia : You have to go after what you want. If you feel that it's too good an opportunity to pass up, and if 20 to 30 years from now it wouldn't make a difference in your life anyway, then baby by all means jump right in. Don't be like this old hag, with a life full of what ifs. Remember, when the universe is knocking on your door, answer it.

• Cynthia : This is all my fault. I shouldn't have gone looking for Shane.

  Kristin : Not knowing would have been better. But knowing, doesn't change a thing. Not for me.

  Cynthia : Kristin, you know, I love you. And nothing's ever going to change that. But is too much. You must end this right now. Do you understand?

• Cynthia : I wanted you two to love each other, but this isn't exactly what I had in mind.

• Kristin : Where are you going anyway?

  Cynthia : Well if you must know, I have a date. A little bit of schmoozing.

  Kristin : Who is it this time?

  Cynthia : Rob... I mean, Henry. He's a nice guy, you're gonna like him. He makes mean sushi.

  Kristin : Yeah? Well tell him to keep his dragon roll to himself.

  Cynthia : Kristin, I swear...

  Kristin : And don't forget to bring rubber, just in case.

  Cynthia : My God! Who are you? You're nasty.

  Cynthia : There will be no screwing in this family. We're screwed up enough.

• Cynthia : I know I haven't always been the best mom in the world, but I love you. Both of you.

  Shane : What do you mean both of us?

  Kristin : She means... You tell him.

  Cynthia : Shane, she's your sister.

• Psychiatrist : How are you feeling about this?

  Cynthia : I don't know... excited, I guess. Relieved, but mostly scared... Confused. I don't know how he's going to respond to me. I'm afraid of what he might say. There's so much I want to tell him, I wouldn't know where to begin.

• Cynthia : Don't be too hard on yourself. We only go through this life once. You have to make the most out of it.

• Cynthia : Thank you Lord, for the wind, for the rain, for the sun! Hallelujah for nature! Thank you Lord, for giving this all to us! The sun is so sharp against my eyes. Es un dia hermoso! I'm going to the beach.
