So, you lost your job? I've lost twenty of them since graduation, plus a wife and kid, and, in a new development this morning, a handful of hair in the shower drain. [puts a blanket on her] That's better. You know, this smells to me like a little bit of self-created drama. I should know; I've been starring in a few of my own.

A line from Billy HicksJules, y'know, honey... this isn't real. You know what it is? It's St. Elmo's Fire. Electric flashes of light that appear in dark skies out of nowhere. Sailors would guide entire journeys by it, but the joke was on them... there was no fire. There wasn't even a St. Elmo. They made it up. They made it up because they thought they needed it to keep them going when times got tough, just like you're making up all of this. We're all going through this. It's our time at the edge.
