Carson Phillips: 2, 4, 6, 8. Heard you like to fornicate.
Claire Mathews: Even if you spread whatever information you have on us around this school, no one is going to believe you. Got it?

Vicki Jordan: Actually, I will TOTALLY believe him.

Claire Mathews: You don't count.

Vicki Jordan: Oh, we don't count? Thank you very much.

Malerie Baggs: They will believe... 'cause we will spread that shit like Nutella.
Sheryl Phillips: You were on ADD medication as a kid, and you turned out somewhat decent.

Carson Phillips: No, I wasn't.

Sheryl Phillips: I hid it in your food.

Carson Phillips: I thought I was just really calm and mature for my age.

Sheryl Phillips: Nope, you were drugged. When your father and I started our divorce, you started asking so many questions we found it easier to roofie you than answer you.
Carson Phillips: In what grade do we stop believing in ourselves? In what grade do we just stop believing, period? I mean, someone has to be a Nobel Peace Prize winner. Someone has to be a ballerina. Why not us? I can't be the only one that gets that.
[first lines]

Carson Phillips: I always thought death would be different. I expected a great wave of realization to sweep over me - suddenly the meaning of life would be answered along with every other question I ever had - but there was nothing to realize. I was dead.
Carson Phillips: I wrote you a story, Grandma.

Grandma: Oh, let's see. "Once upon a time there was a boy." Why! It could use a little development, but-but it's a great beginning.
Carson Phillips: Shakespeare once wrote that life is but a dream - and that's exactly how I live my life, from one dream to the next, hating every update of reality.
Grandma: He used to be such a happy boy. He used to write me stories. I remember the first story he ever wrote me. "Once upon a time there was a boy," and that became "Once upon a time there was a boy who wanted to fly," and it just got better and better over time. Now, I never did find out whether the boy got to fly.
Carson Phillips: Malerie, why-why do you film everything? I mean, I'm sure you don't want to remember... EVERYTHING.

Malerie Baggs: What isn't worth remembering? With good memories come bad memories and I've got a lot of both. At least this way I can fast-forward through all the bad stuff.
Carson Phillips: Because a life without meaning, without drive, without focus, without goals or dreams isn't a life worth living. Life comes at you fast. It runs through your body and tries to escape and be expressed in any way possible. In a way, it's a lot like... lightning.
Carson Phillips: [voiceover] I wanted to be heard so bad that I never thought about listening, but what I regretted the most was that I lived every day waiting for my life to begin.

Student: What's this?

Malerie Baggs: A magazine.

Student: [to Carson] Dick.

Carson Phillips: [voiceover] The higher your cloud, the further your rain falls.
Carson Phillips: I don't want you to shit a dime for me, Nicholas.
Carson Phillips: [talks emotionally] Sometimes I just don't get it. Life. I mean, why do some of us have to work so hard for things we believe in and others don't? I mean, why do some of us care so much? Why are some of us selfish by nature and some of us are selfish to survive?

Grandma: [knits] Dear, I'm making this for my grandson.

Carson Phillips: [whimpers] What is it?

Grandma: [hesitates] A scarf-blanket.

[is stirred and laughs]
Carson Phillips: You've seen my end, but where do I begin?
First Grade Teacher: When something takes away something else, what do we call that? Not addition, but...

Youngest Carson: Homicide.
Sheryl Phillips: If you were decent. you would just let me sleep.

Carson Phillips: If I's decent. I'd just PUT you to sleep.
Sheryl Phillips: You know, you make me wish I'd had that abortion back in the '90s.

Carson Phillips: That makes two of us.
Justin Walker: Hot Stuff, can you freeze fire?

Malerie Baggs: Yes. Well, um... have you seen the movie The Last Airbender?

Justin Walker: No. I-I sleep with girls.
Remy Baker: I hate you more than I hate the holocaust.

Carson Phillips: Bite me, hobbit.
Carson Phillips: Poor Mom. She spent her entire life trying to be Betty Crocker... and became Betty Ford.
Sheryl Phillips: Never have a kid to save a marriage. It does not work.
Vicki Jordan: Carson, why do you care so much? Just don't, okay?
Sheryl Phillips: You need to be on antidepressants.

Carson Phillips: No way. You're medicated enough for the both of us.
Emilio: I literally put the dick in valeDICtorian.
Carson Phillips: So, Emilio, how long have you been a fornicating exchange student, hm?
Grandma: You remind me of my grandson.

Carson Phillips: I do? Why is that?

Grandma: You're sad-looking.
Carson Phillips: Thank you for being the perfect example of something I refuse to become!
Principal: I think I speak for the entire faculty when I say... your son was an absolute joy.

Carson Phillips: Oh, kiss my embalmed ass.
Carson Phillips: Okay, wait, hold up! There are Imaginary numbers now? Are there unicorns in the next lesson? Can someone please teach me something useful, like balancing a checkbook?
Grandma: Sometimes someone's personal raincloud can be deadly.

7 points. The most popular actor in "Glee", "KURT"---Chris Colfer also has this good screenwriting ability. In this film, he wrote and acted himself, and he portrayed a cynical but dreamy young man well. The realization of dreams cannot be achieved overnight, day by day, time and again efforts are the right way. As for the question of whether it will be struck by lightning. . Leave it to God~~
