"It's good..." "I'm glad that you're thinking." "That you are getting inside the character there." "A girl like this would probably say butter." "But, er..." "I'm gonna ask you, this character in the world that we're creating here..." "She's only got one motivation, right?" "Got one thing on her mind..." "Spread Vagimar." "Now, let me ask you this..." "Vagimar is called Vagimar because it melts like margarine." "'Cos if it melted like butter, it would be called Vagibutt." "And Dana, how many women that you know would pay nineteen dollars..."

" No." "Me neither." "This is big one in any case." "What you are planning to do, man..." "It doesn't make sense to me." "How do you not know..." "It doesn't make sense to me either." "Well, why don't you stop moping and do something about it." "Get a new treatment or another doctor." "What do you think I've been doing the last 7 years?" "Nothing works anymore." "Have you thought about these girls?" "They love you." "Their first date, their weddings?" "I love the girls, you know that." "They told me the last 6 weeks that I was gonna die." "And what I've gone through since then, I can't do again." "Well,I don't know what you are planning to do, Mattie." "But you do not include me or mom." "Do you hear me?" "."

"But get a vocal coach before you screw up." "I'm serious." "You don't know how much you're hurting people." "Count age by friends, and not in years." "Count your days smiles and not your tears." "That's the last thing you're gonna say to me?" "That, and that I'm in love with you." "Ever since I've known you." "Marry me..." "HELLO..." "EXCUSE ME..." "Could I have your attention for a moment please?" "Could we have a moment of silence..." "For Matt." "Ten minutes and then, to bed." "And then The Simpsons ended." "See ya." "there was so much... love in that room." "Sometimes people die alone.." "But... this, this..." "This was beautiful." "That was it.."

"Is there anything else you want to add to your confession?" "They all killed themselves." "Eddie, John, Terry, Anita, Marty, Greg." "I wasn't there, but I know it..." "See, all my clients die, but half of them won't wait." "And sometimes... they have parties... to say goodbye." "And, whether you like it or not, unless you can cure them they're just gonna keep on doing it." "Stand up and put your hands on the table." "I'd like to add something to my statement." "All right."

"Really thorough" "Your mother must be proud of him." " She is..." "Thank you." "And your father?" " He passed away." "Oh, I'm sorry." "How did he die?" " He didn't die, he was a police officer." "He died in the line of duty." "Your father was a hero." "To me, my son was a hero." "He had tumors growing on his brain." "Terrible seizures, and there was no way to help him." "Mrs Schapiro, it is unfair to lose someone you love, but there has to be laws." "When your father was laying there, suffering..." "Did any lawyer's opinion matter more than the his?" "What are you going to do to me?" "My son is gone..." "In my world, love.." "is above the law." "How many of them confessed?" "Six." "That would be sick if all of them did it.."

"So he asked me if I would give him a bunch of sleeping pills so he could end it." "He said that nobody would have to know." "Oh God, Nick." "I told him I wouldn't do it." "He was begging me, mom." "I just don't know if I did the right thing." "So, I followed your trail." "Did it lead you to the killers?" "It scattered in the wind around Union Square." "I'm sorry about arresting you." "Now you have a record." "I went a little too far." "And I'm sorry... about your loss." "You think you know how you're gonna react, but you... we fool ourselves." "Want to know what happened?"

"I wanted to thank you... and tell you not to feel bad or carry what I did around, like it's some big secret." "You can tell whoever you need to 'cos that's your job." "It's the survivor's jog to tell the story." "Anyway, I wrote a little piece for you." "I hope you like it." "Take care of mom." "I love you." "The Aids crisis is not over." "Can I give you this?" "The Aids crisis is not over." " Thank you very much." "Can I give you some information on Aids?" "Okay, that's good." "May I give you this?" "May I give you this?" "Hi this is Matt, I'm in heaven now." "Leave your message and someone else will get back to you." "Hi, Mattie." "It's your mother."
