Quotes 

• Jane : Life is a collection of moments. The idea is to have as many good ones as you can.

  Brian : See, I was taught that there are no free lunches. That one day, the rent comes due, the other shoe drops and you suffer a thousand fold.

  Jane : Who raised you?

  Brian : Jews.

• Jane : Look, if you wanna be a good writer then you can't have a mediocre life. I'll give you a baseball metaphor, because Jewish writers love them. Swing from the heels.

• Jane : And because... the future has a way of arriving whether you want it to or not.

• Jane : Get your head right. Get your head right right now because you're about to have the most important conversation of your life. And it's not just your future here. It's mine too. So can you do it? Can you put the French lady out of your mind for nine seconds? Please. Just stick out your hand. Say, 'How do you do, sir?' like a normal human being. So you can have the career that you have always dreamed of... or are you just gonna blow it and incinerate and dissolve like a Kleenex in a fat man's sneeze? Is your head right? Is your head right? Is *your head* right?

  Brian : You're much crazier than I'am.
