Lee Chandler quotes from Manchester by the Sea (2016)

I said a lot of terrible things to you.

Lee

No...

But I... I know you never... Maybe you don't wanna talk to me.

Lee

It's not that...

Let... let me finish. However... My heart was broken - cause it's always gonna be broken, and I know yours is broken, too - but I don't have to carry it. I said things that... I should ****in' burn in hell for what I said to you.

Lee

No. No-no. No, no, no-no-no. Randi, no.

I'm just sorry.

Lee

It's... it's... I... I can't expl... I can't...

I love you! Maybe I shouldn't say that.

Lee

No, you can say that. I'm sorry, I've gotta go.

I just... We couldn't have lunch?

Lee

I'm really sorry, I don't think so, but thank you for saying everything. It's just said...

You can't just die!

Lee

I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. And I'm... I... I want you to be happy, and I'm...

Honey... I see you walking around here, and I just wanna tell you...

Lee

I would want to talk... I would want to talk to you, Randi. Please, I-I-I... I'm... I'm...

Lee, Lee, you've gotta... gotta know what... Okay, I don't wanna torture you.

Lee

This is not... You're not... You're not torturing me.

I just wanna tell you... that I was wrong.

Lee

No. No. Nope. You don't understand, there's nothin'... there's nothin' there. There's nothin' there.

That's not true. That's not true.

Lee

You don't understand.

Yes, I do.

Lee

You don't see it. And I don't know what to s... I know you understand me. I-I-I gotta go. Sorry.

I'm sorry.

What happened to your hand?

Lee

I cut it.

Oh, thanks. For a minute there, I didn't know what happened.

Daddy?

Lee

Yes, honey.

Can't you see we're burning?

Lee

No, honey. You're not burning.

Great parenting.

Lee

**** you! Mind your **** business, **** asshole!

You were a tremendous help.

Lee

I didn't ask to sit down there.

You can't make small talk like every other grown-up in the world?

Lee

No.

You can't talk about boring bullshit for half an hour? "Hey, how about those interest rates?" "Hey, I lost my Triple A card." Like everybody else?

Lee

No, sorry.

You're a **** asshole.

Lee

You know, I've seen a school of sharks tear a boat to pieces like it was made of cardboard because some kid threw a band-aid in the water.

Oh, yeah...

Lee

Yeah, he did! Sometimes the only way to keep them off is to throw the kid directly in the ocean to distract them!

Shut up. Sharks don't even swim in schools!

Lee

Huh? He says sharks don't swim in schools. Smart kid.

Lee

Do you actually have sex with these girls?

Well, we don't just play computer games.

Lee

With both of them?

Well with Sandy's mom here it's sort of strictly just basement business.

Lee

What does that mean?

It means I'm workin' on it.

Lee

What was that guy like?

He was very Christian?

Lee

You know we're Christian too. Right?

Yes, I know that.
Lee: You are aware that Catholics are Christians?

Yes, I am aware of that.
