A scene from Good Will Hunting 1997
Sean

Do you have a soul mate?

Will

Define that.

Sean

Someone you can relate to, someone who opens things up for you.

Will

Sure, I got plenty.

Sean

Well, name them.

Will

Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Frost, O'Conner, Kant, Pope, Locke...

Sean

Well that's great. They're all dead.

Will

Not to me, they're not.

Sean

You can't have a lot of dialogue with them.

Will

Not without a heater and some serious smelling salts.

Sean

Yeah. Well, that's what I'm saying. You'll never have that kind of a relationship in a world where you're always afraid to take the first step because all you see is every negative thing ten miles down the road.
