Drew Baylor Did I miss 60B ? Did I miss 60B ? Shit, man!
2nd most-quoted character in Elizabethtown (2005): in 14 of its 40 quotes
Most scenes with: Claire Colburn (6)
As somebody once said there's a difference between a failure and a fiasco. A failure is simply the non-presence of success. Any fool can accomplish failure. But a fiasco...A fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions. A fiasco is a folktale told to others that makes other people feel more alive because it didn't happened to them.

Drew Baylor In that moment I knew that success, not greatness was the only god the entire world served.
Drew Baylor No true fiasco ever began as a quest for mere adequacy. A motto of the British Special Air Force is: 'Those who risk, win.' A single green vine shoot is able to grow through cement. The Pacific Northwestern salmon beats itself bloody on it's quest to travel hundreds of miles upstream against the current, with a single purpose, sex of course, but also... life.
Drew Baylor Because we have a moment here, let me tell you that I have recently become a secret connoisseur of 'last looks'. You know the way people look at you when they believe it's for the last time? I've started collecting these looks. There's one right now.
Drew Baylor You know, there is nothing greater than deciding in your life that things maybe really are black and white! And this guy Ben, who clearly takes you for granted, who serially takes advantage of you, is bad! And what I'm saying is good! See what I mean? You shouldn't be the substitute for anybody. This guy should be right here, right now, doing this. [kisses Claire]

I think I've been asleep most of my life.
Drew Baylor Me too.
Drew Baylor I'm gonna have to call you back...
Heather Baylor
Okay, just dial HELL and I'll answer.
Do you ever just think I'm fooling everyone?
Drew Baylor You have no idea.
Hey, you're only 45 minutes away. You wanna meet halfway and see the sunrise? At this point it's probably easier to stay up!
Drew Baylor You think so?
I think that's what "they" say!
What they say is that it will hit you. Could be ten minutes or ten years from now. So it's good that you talk about it, or don't talk about it... we have talked about it.
Drew Baylor I've always wondered something... who are "they"?
You know... "Them"
Drew Baylor Them?
The inimitable collective, "them".
Drew Baylor And who says we have to listen to "them"?
"THEY" do!
So, you failed.
Drew Baylor No, you don't get it.
All right, you really failed. You failed, you failed, you failed. You failed, you failed, you... You think I care about that? I do understand. You're an artist, man. Your job is to break through barriers. Not accept blame and bow and say thank you, I'm a loser, I'll go away now. Oh, Phil's mean to me, whaa, whaa, So what.
Drew Baylor I don't cry.
You want to be really great? Then have the courage to fail big and stick around. Make them wonder why you're still smiling. That's true greatness to me. But... don't listen to me, I'm a Claire.
You know, You're always trying to break up with me, and we're not even together.
Drew Baylor I know... We're not?
