Jere Burns: Group Leader

Quotes 

• Group Leader : We're not here to sit in judgement.

  Jesse Pinkman : Why not? Why not? Maybe she's right. You know, maybe I should have put it in the paper. I should've done something different. The thing is, if you just do stuff and nothing happens... what's it all mean? What's the point? Oh, right, this whole thing is about self-acceptance.

  Group Leader : Kicking the hell out of yourself doesn't give meaning to anything.

  Jesse Pinkman : So, I should stop "judging" and accept? So, no matter what I do, hooray for me, because I'm a great guy. It's all good. No matter how many dogs I kill, I just, what, do an inventory and accept? I mean, you back your truck over your own kid and you, like, accept? What a load of crap!

  Group Leader : Hey, Jesse, I know you're in pain...

  Jesse Pinkman : No, you know what? Why I'm here in the first place... is to sell you meth. You're nothing to me but customers! I made you my bitch! You okay with that? huh? You accept?

  Group Leader : No.

  Jesse Pinkman : About time.

• Group Leader : So the truth is, we can't change the past, what's done is done. We've gotta own our actions, but putting ourselves on trial acting as our own judge, jury and executioner, it's not the answer. A lot of the time, all that judging does is just ensure that we're gonna repeat the cycle.
