50/50 Quotes

Struggles of Love and Illness

Adam: [crying] I want this to be over. I’m so fucking tired of being sick...if this surgery doesn’t work, that’s it -- I’ve never been to fucking Canada or told a girl I love her...it sounds stupid.
Katherine: No. It doesn’t.

Family Communication and Emotional Disconnect

Adam: Okay... My mom is... I don't know. She's a crazy person. She just worries all day every day. And honestly, it annoys the shit out of me. It's way too much. And it's not helpful, and um, I can’t talk to her. I don't call her back. It's a problem.
Katherine: So she's got this husband who can't talk to her, and this son who won't?
