Dee: Who gives a shit? Don't you see what you do? Even now, you wanna deny me what's rightfully mine.
Mack: Which is?
Dee: To resent the hell outta you. To feel totally rejected and hated. To hate you for doing it to me. There are good men out there who are gonna treat me like I'm the very thing they want. And then you do that thing with Jane.
Mack: What?
Dee: You know, with that guy, that tow-truck guy.
Mack: What about it? What's that got to do with anything?

Dee: Forget it. It doesn't have to make sense.

Mack: He's kinda lonely, but he seems peaceful about it.

Mack: Of course, it would also be nice not to feel bad most of the time.
Dee: Yeah, but that's how you get yourself in trouble. By thinking how nice it'd be to be happy more.
