Movie quotes

  • (..) - OK. ...I have ever experienced. But once I realised the problem was not you, but within me, I found inner peace and was able to harness the flow of the universe. So that's it? I just need inner peace? My innards are already super, super peaceful, so all I need to do is just get this thing going. (..)
