Quotes

[first lines]
Ed: [talking to his son on the phone] What I'm saying is that it's more than what it seems, that's all. Much more.
Ed: People don't know, because they're too busy with their game shows and football and silliness to take the time to look and read and figure it all out. Who is it that said, "Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see"? These are interesting times we're living in. That's another saying. Chinese. Actually, it's a curse. All you have to do is look and learn to connect...
