The Perfect Storm - Remembering Those Lost at Sea
Linda Greenlaw: [at the services for the crew of the Andrea Gail]
I knew Billy Tyne, but I did not know his crew very well. But any man who sailed with him must have been the better for it. Robert Shatford, Dale Murphy, Micheal Moran, David Sullivan, Alfred Pierre...may you rest easy long-liners, in fair winds...and calm seas. For those of us left behind, the vast unmarked grave which is home for those lost at sea is no consolation. It can't be visited, there is no headstone on which to rest a bunch of flowers. The only place we can revisit them...is in our hearts, or in our dreams. They say swordboatmen suffer from a lack of dreams, that's what begets their courage. Well, we'll dream for you: Billy, and Bobby, and Murph, Bugsy, Sully, and Alfred Pierre. Sleep well. Good Night.

The Abyss - Two Candles in the Dark
Lindsey Brigman:
I know how alone you feel... alone in all that cold blackness... but I'm there in the dark with you. Oh, Bud you're not alone. You remember that time, you were pretty drunk, you probably don't remember... but the power went out at the old apartment, the one on Orange Street... and we were staring at that one little candle, and I said something really dumb like that candle is me, like every one of us is out there alone in the dark in this life... and you just lit up another candle and put it beside mine and said "No, see? That's me. That's me..." And we stared at the two candles, and then we... well, if you remember any of it, I'm sure you remember the next part. Bud, there are two candles in the dark. I'm with you. I'll always be with you, Bud, I promise that.

Hey Eddie, what are you going to do when I kick your ass?
Eddie Felson:
Pick myself up and let you kick me again.
Vincent Lauria:
Oh yeah?
Eddie Felson: [pause]
Yeah. Just don't put the money in the bank, kid. Because if I don't whip you now, I'm gonna whip you next month in Dallas.
Carmen:
You mean Houston - there's nothing coming up in Dallas.
Eddie Felson:
Houston, Dallas... And if not then, then the month after that, in New Orleans.
Vincent Lauria:
Oh yeah? What makes you so sure?
Eddie Felson: [stares at Vincent for a second, then gets ready to break]
Hey - I'm back.
