Albert Markovski

Nobody sits like this rock sits. You rock, rock. The rock just sits and is. You show us how to just sit here and that's what we need.

Albert Markovski
[about the body bag exercise]

I can't go back in there. It's all hating faces that I have to chop up with a machete!

Albert Markovski

We're not in Infinity, we're in the suburbs

Albert Markovski

Everything is the same, even if it's different.

Albert Markovski

Mother**** **** mother**** shit ****er what am I doing? What am I doing? I don't know what I'm doing. I'm doing the best that I can. I know that's all I can ask of myself. Is that good enough? Is my work doing any good? Is anybody paying attention? Is it hopeless to try and change things? The African guy is a sign, right? Because if he isn't, than nothing in this world makes any sense to me. I'm ****! Maybe I should quit. Don't quit! Maybe I should just **** quit. Don't **** quit! I don't know what the **** I'm supposed to **** do anymore! ****er! **** shit!

Albert Markovski
[to Vivian Jaffe]

I can't believe you guys actually exist.

Albert Markovski

What?! Is it a crime? Is it a crime to look at Lange?!

Have you ever transcended space and time?

Albert Markovski

Yes. No. Uh...time, not space. No, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Albert Markovski

The interconnection thing is definitely for real.

It is! I didn't think it wasn't! It is!

Albert Markovski

I know, I can't believe it, it's so fantastic!

It's amazing!

Albert Markovski

I know.

But it's also nothing special

Albert Markovski

Yeah, because it grows from the manure of human troubles.

What happened to the cat, Albert?

Albert Markovski

How'd you know about my cat?

The cat was killed by curiosity.

Albert Markovski

Oh, that cat.

Albert, what brought you to the philosophical club?

Albert Markovski

You mean the existential detectives?

Sounds like a support group.

Cricket

Why can't he use the church?

Sometimes people have additional questions to be answered.

Cricket

Like what?

Albert Markovski

Well, um, for instance - if the forms of this world die, which is more real: the me that dies or the me that's infinite? Can I trust my habitual mind or do I need to learn to look beneath those things?

What are you doing tomorrow?

Albert Markovski

I was thinking about chaining myself to a bulldozer. Do you want to come?

What time?

Albert Markovski

Mmm... one, one-thirty.

Sounds good. Should I bring my own chains?

Albert Markovski

We always do.

Why don't you just tell me what your situation is?

Albert Markovski

Look, I'm not really sure I know exactly what you guys do around here, all right?

Well, we'll investigate and solve your case.

Albert Markovski

How?

If you sign a contract we'll follow you.

Albert Markovski

You'll spy?

Albert Markovski

On me?

Albert Markovski

Will you be spying on me in the bathroom?

Albert Markovski

In the bathroom?

Albert Markovski

Why?

There's nothing too small. You know when police find the slightest piece of DNA and build a case on it? If we might see you floss or masturbate that could be the key to your entire reality.

Albert Markovski

No, I'm not. I'm talking about not covering every square inch with houses and strip malls until you can't remember what happens when you stand in a meadow at dusk.

Bret

What happens in the meadow at dusk?

Albert Markovski

Everything.

Nothing.

Albert Markovski

Everything.

Nothing.

Albert Markovski

It's beautiful.

It's beautiful.

Ah, here he comes!

Albert Markovski

Oh, boy.

The man-poet who banged France's dark lady of philosophy. The parking lot crusader of truth... who turned his back on his other like a cold-blooded gangsta.

Albert Markovski

What, is it a crime? Is it a crime to look at Lange?

Albert, have you ever been in love?

Albert Markovski

What kind of question is that?

[running away from Vivian and Bernard]

I want my money back!

Albert Markovski

Yeah, and if I weren't pro bono, I'd want MY money back!

You live all the time with things you can't see. You can't see electricity, can you? You can't see radio waves, but you accept them.

Trust.

Albert Markovski

just trust!

You better stay away from Caterine, Albert, 'cause she's gonna lead you down the path of darkness.

She was our prize graduate student until she went astray.

Albert Markovski

No, I think that I am going to stay with her, and the cracks and the pain and the nothingness, because THAT's more real to me, THAT's what I feel.

Word.

Okay, we're not sweatin' it.

No, we're gonna work with Brad.

It'll all come back to you and interconnection.

Albert Markovski

Brad? Are you kidding me? I'm gonna work on that prick and it's all gonna come to pain and no connection!

It's on.
