A scene from Jurassic Park 3 2001
Eric

I'm sorry about Billy.

Dr. Grant

You know what the last thing I said to him was? I said, "You're as bad as the people that built this place." Which wasn't true. Billy was just...young. That's all. I have a theory that there are two kinds of boys. There are those that want to be astronomers, and those that want to be astronauts. The astronomer, or the paleontologist, gets to- gets to study these amazing things from a place of complete safety.

Eric

But then you never get to go into space.

Dr. Grant

Exactly. That's the difference between imagining and seeing; to be able to touch them. And that's...that's all that Billy wanted.

Eric

Dr. Grant.

Eric

[clearing opens up to show a group of dinosaurs]

Know something, Dr. Grant? Billy was right.
