Movie quotes

  • (..) I don't think I would choose Beverly Hills. No? Why...why not? I love living by the beach, you know...like my apartment is a short ride to the ocean. I get to stare it all day. To be honest, I kinda feel sorry for these people. Needing to feel important in these big houses. I talk like this now. (..)
