Just finished watching The Life of David Gale. Kevin "Keyser Söze" Spacey has, as always, done a commendable job in pulling off an intriguing plot.

Here are two dialogues from the flick that kinda hooked on to my grey cells:

"Fantasies must be unrealistic. The minute you get something, you don't, you can't, want it anymore. Living by your wants will never make you happy, what it means to be fully human is to strive to live by ideas and ideals and not to measure your life by what you ever attain in terms of your desires, but those small moments of integrity, compassion, rationality, even self-sacrifice.
To exist, desire needs absent objects. So desire supports itself with crazy fantasies...

This is what Pascal means when he says the only time we're truly happy is when day-dreaming about future happiness. Or why we say, 'The hunt is sweeter than the kill' or 'Be careful what you wish for.' Not because you'll get it, but because you're doomed not to want it if you do. Think about it next time you're at a wedding."

And.....

"Death is a gift. We spend our whole lives trying to stop death. Eating, inventing, loving, praying, fighting, killing -- choose a verb. All to stall this evil, Job's 'king of terrors.' But what do we really know about death? Just that nobody comes back. There comes a point in life, when your mind out-lives its obsessions, when your habits survive your dreams, your losses... You wonder, maybe death is a gift."

Pigs on the wing

If you didn't care what happened to me,
And I didn't care for you,
We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain.
Wondering which of the buggars to blame
And watching for pigs on the wing.

You call, I pick up the phone
You talk, I listen
while you recieve another call....from him
I hold the line
cursing the pigs on the wing.

You know that I care what happens to you,
And I know that you care for me.
So I don't feel alone,
Or the weight of the stone,
Now that I've found somewhere safe
To bury my bone.
And any fool knows a dog needs a home,
A shelter from pigs on the wing.

Walk the (straight) line

Kyle: Dude, there is one thing you should never do to your girl!

Stan: ?

Kyle: Never, ever ask her if she's virgin.
And even if you somehow do that, never laugh at her if she says yes!

Stan: Jesus Virgin Christ!
Dude, every girl says she is virgin. What's the point of the question?

Kyle: Hmmm
I guess it's just like us guys, who are never "drunk."

Stan: No. This is different

Kyle: ??

Stan: You can't ask her to walk in a straight line to prove her virginity!

P.s.: never ask your girl if she's virgin, cuz as an aftermath, she will irrevocably bounce the question back to you. And then, if you say yes, you are no good, and if you say no, you are no good!
