A scene from Splash 1984
Allen Bauer

I don't understand. All my life, I've been waiting for someone and when I find her, she's... she's a fish.

Freddie Bauer

Nobody said love's perfect.

Allen Bauer

Oh, Freddie, I don't expect it to be perfect! But for God's sake, it's usually human! Every day, people meet, they fall in love, every day! And look at what I got.

Freddie Bauer

[angrily]

Yeah, let's look at what you got. Let's take a good look at what you got. People fall in love every day, huh? Is that what you said?

Allen Bauer

Yeah.

Freddie Bauer

Yeah? Well, that's a crock. It doesn't work that way. Look, do you realize how happy you were with her? That is, of course, when you weren't driving youself crazy. Every day? Come on. Some people will never be that happy. I'll never be that happy! [pause] What am I talking to you for? You don't know anything. Mrs. Stimler. [leaves the office]
