Mumford - Desire for Freedom in Constrained Environments
Nessa:
This shrink school you went to, did you hear about it in an infomercial?
Lilly:
I watched 20/20, it was shocking! Did you know the government is wasteful?
Martin Brocket:
Have you come across a bigger shithead than my stepfather?
Althea Brockett:
Why do I feel so elated? Am I in denial? You know what this feels like? I know my time's up, but I've got to get this out while I've got a hold of it! ... When I was in high school the thing I wanted most when I was stuck in class, the thing that I was desperately in pursuit of, was a hall pass. That's all I ever wanted. I loved moving freely around the school while everybody else was trapped in there. That's how I feel right now. Like I have some giant all day hall pass.
Skip Skipperton: [to Lilly]
I may be young, but Doc can tell you — I'm very immature.
Dr. Ernest Delbanco: [[William James]
No one can escape the fear of death. It is, as ] put it, "the worm at the core," and try as we may to forget or ignore our own mortality, the skull will grin in at the banquet.

Quiz Show - Questioning Evidence and Perception in Quiz Show
Dick Goodwin: [Dick Goodwin questions Dan Enright about evidence of Twenty One being fixed]
Dan, I have it on the kinescope, it's clear as day. The man literally did a double-take.
Dan Enright: [laughing]
He did a double-take? And who told you this? Is this Herb again? Or is this the Greenwich Village Beatnik?
Dick Goodwin:
That's interesting, why is he a beatnik? Because he's not Charlie Van Doren?
Dan Enright:
Yeah, you're damn right he's not Charlie Van Doren. You know, you got these crackpots coming out of the woodwork, you're snooping around asking questions. You don't have a shred of concrete evidence.
Dick Goodwin:
Dan, let me tell you something. In this envelope are all the questions that James Snodgrass was asked on Twenty One. The odd thing about this envelope is that he appeared on the show January 13th, if you recall. Yet, he somehow mailed this to himself on January 11th via registered mail. I'd say that's pretty damn concrete, wouldn't you?

Dick Goodwin: [laughs]
He told me this whole story about when a Jew is on the show, he always loses to a Gentile, and then the Gentile wins more money. I mean, who could dream up a scheme like that?
Dan Enright: [laughs]
A symptom of his Van Doren fixation!
Dick Goodwin:
The thing of it is, I looked it up: it's true.
