    Carolyn Burnham:
    My husband, Lester.

    Oh, we've met before, actually. This thing last year, Christmas at the Sheraton...

    It's OK, I wouldn't remember me either.

    We have a very healthy relationship.

    Are you just looking to lose weight, or do you want increased strength and flexibility as well?



    Lester Burnham:
    I want to look good naked!

  • Brad Dupree:
    [reading Lester's job description] "My job consists of basically masking my contempt for the assholes in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that doesn't so closely resemble Hell." Well, you have absolutely no interest in saving yourself.



    Lester Burnham:
    Brad, for 14 years I've been a whore for the advertising industry. The only way I could save myself now is if I start firebombing.

  • Ricky Fitts:
    Welcome to America's weirdest home videos.

    Look at me, jerking off in the shower... This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

    I feel like I've been in a coma for the past twenty years. And I'm just now waking up.

  • Jane Burnham:
    I know you think my dad's harmless, but you're wrong.

  • Carolyn Burnham:
    You ungrateful little brat! Just look at everything you have. When I was your age, we... lived in a duplex! We didn't even have our own house!

  • Angela Hayes:
    Yeah? Well, at least I'm not ugly!



    Ricky Fitts:
    Yes, you are. And you're boring, and you're totally ordinary, and you know it.

  • Lester Burnham:
    Then I guess I'll have to throw in a sexual harassment charge.



    Brad Dupree:
    Against who?



    Lester Burnham:
    Against YOU. Can you prove that you didn't offer to save my job if I let you blow me?



    Brad Dupree:
    Man, you are one twisted fuck.



    Lester Burnham:
    Nope; I'm just an ordinary guy who has nothing left to lose.

  • Ricky Fitts:
    Excuse me for speaking so bluntly sir. But those fags make me want to puke my fucking guts out.



    Colonel Frank Fitts:
    [cautiously, after a long pause] Well, me too son. Me too.

  • Ricky Fitts:
    It was one of those days when it's a minute away from snowing and there's this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me. Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes. And that's the day I knew there was this entire life behind things, and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember... and I need to remember... Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in.

  • Ricky Fitts:
    So, do you party?



    Lester Burnham:
    Excuse me?



    Ricky Fitts:
    Do you get high?

  • Catering Boss:
    I'm not paying you to do... whatever it is you're doing out here.



    Ricky Fitts:
    Fine. So don't pay me.



    Catering Boss:
    Excuse me?



    Ricky Fitts:
    I quit. So you don't have to pay me. Now leave me alone.



    Catering Boss:
    ...asshole.



    Lester Burnham:
    I think you just became my personal hero!

  • Carolyn Burnham:
    Honey, I'm so proud of you. I watched you very closely, and you didn't screw up once!
