Quotes 

• Jesse Pinkman : You know, I don't get it. Why would anyone paint a picture of a door, over and over again, like, dozens of times?

  Jane Margolis : But it wasn't the same.

  Jesse Pinkman : Yeah, it was.

  Jane Margolis : It was the same subject, but it was different every time. The light was different, her mood was different. She saw something new every time she painted it.

  Jesse Pinkman : And that's not psycho to you?

  Jane Margolis : Well, then why should we do anything more than once? Should I just smoke this one cigarette? Maybe we should only have sex once, if it's the same thing.

  Jesse Pinkman : ...no.

  Jane Margolis : Should we just watch one sunset? Or live just one day? Because it's new every time. Each time is a different experience.

  Jesse Pinkman : Okay, fine. I guess the cow skull pictures were cool, but a door? I will say it again. A door.

  Jane Margolis : Why not a door? Sometimes you get fixated on something, and you might not even get why. You open yourself up and go with the flow, wherever the universe takes you.

  Jesse Pinkman : Okay, so the universe took her to a door. And she got all obesessed with it, and just had to paint it 20 times until it was perfect.

  Jane Margolis : Aww, that was so sweet, I think I threw up in my mouth a little bit.

  Jesse Pinkman : You can't admit, just for once, that I'm right. Come on. That O'Keeffe lady kept trying over and over until that stupid door was perfect.

  Jane Margolis : No. That door was her home and she loved it. To me, that's about making that feeling last.

• Jesse Pinkman : [looking at the painting "My Last Door" by Georgia O'Keeffe]  Yo, I thought I was gonna see some, like, vaginas.

  Jane Margolis : I didn't say she actually painted vaginas. I said, some of her paintings looked like vaginas.

  Jesse Pinkman : Uh, seriously? Not even close.

  Jane Margolis : Georgia O'Keeffe painted all kinds of stuff. Everyday items, her surroundings. Some of it evoked an erotic nature. It's who she was.

  Jesse Pinkman : Not like any vagina I ever saw. This chick have medical issues?

  Jane Margolis : This particular painting... is of a door.

  Jesse Pinkman : Any other doors we can check out? Like, real ones or...
