Conversation from the movie Meet Joe Black. The father is acted by Anthony Hopkins. So, if you can, imagine these words in his voice....it's so much better!
FATHER: "It's not what you say about Drew, it's what you don't say...I want you to get swept away, I want you to levitate, I want you to sing with rapture and dance like a dirvish."
DAUGHTER: "Oh that's all?"
FATHER: "Yeah. Be deliriously happy. At least leave yourself open to be. I know its a cornball thing, but love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can't live without. I say fall head over heals. Find someone you can love like crazy and will love you the same way back. And how do you find em? Well, you forget your head and you listen to your heart. Cause the truth is honey there's no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well, you haven't lived a life at all. but you have to try. Cause if you haven't tried, you haven't lived."
DAUGHTER: "Bravo."
FATHER: "Oh, you're tough."
DAUGHTER: (sigh.) "I'm sorry. Okay, give it to me again, but the short version this time."
FATHER : "K. Stay open. Who knows, Lightning could strike!"
