A scene from The Social Network 2010
Gage

Mr. Zuckerberg, do I have your full attention?

Mark Zuckerberg
[stares out the window]

No.

Gage

Do you think I deserve it?

Mark Zuckerberg
[looks at the lawyer]

What?

Gage

Do you think I deserve your full attention?

Mark Zuckerberg

I had to swear an oath before we began this deposition, and I don't want to perjure myself, so I have a legal obligation to say no.

Gage

Okay – no. You don't think I deserve your attention.

Mark Zuckerberg

I think if your clients want to sit on my shoulders and call themselves tall, they have the right to give it a try, but there's no requirement that I enjoy sitting here listening to people lie. You have part of my attention – you have the minimum amount. The rest of my attention is back at the offices of Facebook, where my colleagues and I are doing things that no one in this room, including and especially your clients, are intellectually or creatively capable of doing. [pauses] Did I adequately answer your condescending question?
