A scene from Finding Forrester 2000

Jamal

We've been talking about your book at school.

Forrester

People have been talking about it for years. They just haven't been saying anything.

Jamal

Forrester About those free-throws...Did you miss them? Or did you "miss" them? Jamal Not exactly a soup question, now is it? Forrester Do you know what people are most afraid of? Jamal What? Forrester What they don't understand. And when we don't understand, we turn to our assumptions. Jamal 'The rest of those who have gone before us cannot steady the unrest of those to follow.' You wrote that in your book.
