Whiplash - Friendship and Its Perceived Value
Uncle Frank:
You got any friends, Andy?
Andrew:
No.
Uncle Frank:
Oh, why's that?
Andrew:
I don't know, I just never really saw the use.
Uncle Frank: [[John Lennon|Lennon; [w:Paul McCartney|McCartney]
Well, who are you going to play with otherwise? ] and ], they were school buddies, am I right?
Andrew: [[Charlie Parker; [w:Jo Jones |Jo Jones]
] didn't know anybody til ] threw a cymbal at his head.
Uncle Frank:
So that's your idea of success, huh?
Andrew:
I think being the greatest musician of the 20th century is anybody's idea of success.
Jim:
Dying broke and drunk and full of heroin at the age of 34 is not exactly my idea of success.
Andrew:
I'd rather die drunk, broke at 34 and have people at a dinner table talk about me than live to be rich and sober at 90 and nobody remembered who I was.
Uncle Frank:
Ah, but your friends will remember you, that's the point.
Andrew:
None of us were friends with Charlie Parker. That's the point.
Uncle Frank:
Travis and Dustin? They have plenty of friends and plenty of purpose.
Andrew:
I'm sure they'll make great school board presidents someday.
Dustin:
Oh, that's what this is all about? You think you're better than us?
Andrew:
You catch on quick. Are you in Model UN?
Travis:
I got a reply for you, Andrew. You think Carleton football's a joke? Come play with us.
Andrew:
Four words you will never hear from the NFL.
Aunt Emma:
Who wants dessert?
Jim:
Hear from Lincoln Center?
