Most scenes with: Thomas 'Holden' Worther (3)
I was looking at you in the store and I liked how you kept to yourself. I saw in your eyes that you hate the world. I hate it too.
Justine After living in the dark for so long, a glimpse of the light can make you giddy. Strange thoughts come into your head and you'd better think 'em. Has a special fate been calling you and you're not listening? Is there a secret message right in front of you and you're not reading it? Is this your last best chance? Are you going to take it? Or are you going to the grave with unlived lives in your veins?
Justine You're a writer so you have yourself a goal, I guess. I used to, you know, lay in bed and imagine other cities, other jobs I could have; other husbands. Now I don't even know what to imagine anymore.
Justine As a girl you see the world as a giant candy store filled with sweet candy and such. But one day you look around and you see a prison and you're on death row. You wanna run or scream or cry but something's locking you up. Are the other folks cows chewing cud until the hour comes when their heads roll? Or are they just keeping quiet like you, planning their escape.
Justine How it all came down to this, only the Devil knows. Retail Rodeo is at the corner on my left. The motel is down the road to my right. I close my eyes and try to peer into the future. On my left, I saw days upon days of lipstick and ticking clocks, dirty looks and quiet whisperings. And burning secrets that just won't ever die away. And on my right, what could I picture? The blue sky, the desert earth, stretching out into the eerie infinity. A beautiful never-ending nothing.
Justine I thought if I died today what would happen to me? A hateful girl... A selfish girl... An adulteress... A liar.
I crave you! I wanna know everything about you. Who are you?
Justine I'm just this woman.
Justine They call you Tom?
It's my slave name.
Justine Whatcha readin'?
Catcher in the Rye... I'm named after it.
Justine What's your name?
Justine Catcher?
Justine Gwen says smoking marijuana lowers your sperm.
Phil Lowers it to where?
Justine Maybe you're the infertile one around here. Maybe every time you smoke a little doobie, you're killing our unborn children.
Corny You got any interest in reading the Bible?
Justine I have my own, you know, beliefs.
Corny Well, we don't preach fire and brimstone. Ten Commandments, gotta live by those. Other than the usual ways, we're not interested in scaring people. We're about loving Jesus.
Justine Mm-hmm. Yeah, I kind of like my nights to myself.
Corny Well, maybe you'll have night after night of eternal hellfire all to yourself. Just kidding you. Drive safe. Bye-bye.
