Movie quotes

  • (..) - I don't know, it's a business. - No. It's because that's the only print of our time on earth. That's bullshit, Philippe. For bucks and a quick stop at a hardware store, I can leave something behind as well. I can even add extra blue for free if you want. Stop talking nonsense. Give me a M&M's. (..)
