Take a minute to consider your achievement. I once told you about a sailor who described drowning to me.
Angier Yes, he said it was like going home.
I was lying. He said it was agony.

Cutter knew. Cutter knew. But I told him it was too simple, too easy.
No... simple, maybe, but not easy. There's nothing easy about two men sharing one life.
