Forrest Tucker: If I ever wonder what I'm doing or where I'm going, I just think to myself: "Is that little kid I was when I was just about this tall," I say, "well now, would he have been proud of me?" And if the answer is "no", well then I just keep walking on through. But if the answer is "yes", then I know I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.
Jewel: So is he proud of you? That little boy?
Forrest Tucker: Oh, he's getting closer every day.
Jewel: But you're never exactly where you're supposed to be, are you? I mean, 'cause if you are, you're dead. And little ten year-old you, he's... y'know, he might have hopes and dreams, but he doesn't understand time or the world like you do. So, I think you gotta keep on keeping on, just living your life, trying new things, just gotta keep on pushing.

Maureen: And?
John Hunt: He's a guy... who is old... but used to be young... and he just really loves robbing banks.
Maureen: That's it?
John Hunt: That's it.
Maureen: Just like you're a guy... who's a cop... who's gonna catch him.
