[Donnie Smith]
(To Thurston Howell) I'm sick. I'm sick here now. I confuse melancholy with depression sometimes. You see?....I'm sick....I'm sick, and I'm in love....That's right! That's the first time you've been right. I confuse the two, and I don't care!
(To Brad the bartender) Hey, Hey, I love you. I love you, and I'm-I'm sick. I'll talk to you - I'll talk to you tomorrow. I'm getting corrective oral surgery tomorrow, for my teeth. I love you, Brad. Brad the bartender. You want to love me back? I'll be good to you. I'll be goddamn good for you. I won't be mad if you don't know who said what. I won't punish you if you get the answer wrong. I can teach and tell you...
(To Howell) You shut up. Mind your own business. (To Brad) Brad, I know you don't love me now...You wanna know the common element for the entire group like he asked? I'll tell you the answer: I'll tell you 'cause I had that one. (pointing to the TV) I had that question. Carbon. Carbon. In pencil lead, it's in the form of graphite. In coal, it's mixed up with other impurities and in the diamond, it's in hard form. (in the guise of Jimmy Gator, the TV quiz show announcer) 'Well, all we really wanted to know was the common element, Donnie, but thank you for all that unnecessary knowledge. Ha, ha, kids! Heads so full of useless knowledge. Thank you. Thank you.' And the book says: 'We may be through with the past, but the past is not through with us!' (To Howell) And no, it is not dangerous to confuse children with angels!
