Memorable Quotes from Christopher Evan Welch
3 quotesThe Complexity of Existence and Human Connection
Claire Keen
Knowing that you don't know is the first and most essential step to knowing, you know?
Tammy
I feel ok, mostly... fucking might help.
Adele Lack
Everyone is disappointing the more you know them.
Pastor
Everything is more complicated than you think. You only see a tenth of what is true. There are a million little strings attached to every choice you make; you can destroy your life every time you choose. But maybe you won't know for twenty years. And you may never ever trace it to its source. And you only get one chance to play it out. Just try and figure out your own divorce. And they say there is no fate, but there is: it's what you create. And even though the world goes on for eons and eons, you are only here for a fraction of a fraction of a second. Most of your time is spent being dead or not yet born. But while alive, you wait in vain, wasting years, for a phone call or a letter or a look from someone or something to make it all right. And it never comes or it seems to but it doesn't really. And so you spend your time in vague regret or vaguer hope that something good will come along. Something to make you feel connected, something to make you feel whole, something to make you feel loved. And the truth is I feel so angry, and the truth is I feel so fucking sad, and the truth is I've felt so fucking hurt for so fucking long and for just as long I've been pretending I'm OK, just to get along, just for, I don't know why, maybe because no one wants to hear about my misery, because they have their own. Well, fuck everybody. Amen.
Elke Putzkammer
If the year is a life, then ], the beginning of fall, is when the bloom is off the rose and things start to die. It's a ] month and maybe because of that, quite beautiful.

Exploring Hypnosis and Past Lives in Dialogue
John More
Some of this sounds quite like hypnosis. Is it not?
Lancaster Dodd
This is a process of dehypnotization, if you will. Man is asleep; this process wakes him from his slumber.
John More
I still find it difficult to see the proof with regards to past lives that your movement claims.
Lancaster Dodd
Would you care to submit yourself to processing? You'd look through the telescope, as my friend said.
John More
Perhaps another time. You've also said that these methods, Cause methods, can cure leukemia. According to your book...
Lancaster Dodd
Some forms of leukemia. In being able to access past lives we are able to treat illnesses that may have started back thousands, even trillions of years.
John More
Trillions?
Lancaster Dodd
With a T, sir.
John More
Earth is not understood to be more than a few billion years old.
[chuckles]
Lancaster Dodd
Well even the smartest of our current scientists can be fooled, yes?
John More
You can understand skepticism, can you not?
Lancaster Dodd
Yes, oh yes yes. For without it we'd be positives and no negatives, therefore zero charge. We must have it.
John More
Good science by definition allows for more than one opinion, doesn't it?
Lancaster Dodd
Which is why our gathering of data is so far-reaching.
John More
Otherwise you merely have the will of one man. Which is the basis of cult. Is it not?
Lancaster Dodd
Tis, tis. And thankfully we are, all of us, working at breakneck speeds, in the unison towards capturing the mind's fatal flaws and correcting it back to its inherent state of perfect. While righting civilization and eliminating war and poverty and therefore the atomic threat.

Confrontation of Beliefs and Questions
John More
I belong to no club, and if you're unwilling to allow any discussion...
Lancaster Dodd
No, this isn't a discussion, it's a grilling! There's nothing I can do for you, if your mind has been made up. You seem to know the answers to your questions, why do you ask?
John More
I'm sorry you're unwilling to defend your beliefs in any kind of rational...
Lancaster Dodd
If, if you already know the answers to your questions, then why ask PIG FUCK? We are not helpless. And we are on a journey that risks the dark. If you don't mind, a good night to you.
