QUOTES:

“As little boys, you’ve got Stand By Me, you’ve got The Goonies, y’know, The Sandlot. You’ve got all these really fantastical things to see yourself in.”

“The first thirty minutes of that movie, my jaw was on the floor, and I left that theater going, ‘I finally f**king get it. I finally get why little boys and men are so excited about comic book movies and superheroes.’”

“It’s also not Anne’s fault that Diana sat there like a f**king lush and downed an entire bottle of currant wine while she wasn’t looking!”

“I should just be dirty and dumb and shitty for a while, and then eventually get what I want because I stuck to my guns.”

“Kids are more and more mature, sooner? No they’re not. They stay really really stupid until they’re like 25, just like they always have.”

“Her masculine thoughts weighed down the plane!”
