Quotes 

• Young Bo : My dad's philosophy is: having a job is expensive. If you spend all your time working for someone else, you don't have any time to learn to do things.

• Young Bo : You know what's really weird? When they send you a credit card and it's just in a plain envelope. You could so easily throw it away and not know it was in there.

  George : Who?

  Young Bo : I feel so bad for Mr. Gibbs. They completely stripped his car.

  George : Who got a credit card?

  Young Bo : It's just sitting out there in the desert like a corpse, like the vultures came and pecked out the eyeballs and everything! The radio, the seats...

  George : ARLENE got a credit card?

  Young Bo : Any news on that psychiatrist front?

• Young Bo : So, how was the psychiatrist?

  George : He was a woman.

  Young Bo : Did you get the prescription?

  George : No.

  Young Bo : You didn't act depressed enough.

  George : She wants to see me again next week.

  Young Bo : Really? Why? Why, George?

  George : [clearing his throat]  I think she likes me.

• Young Bo : [viewing Gibbs' painting]  It has struck me to view the ocean as the past, and the sky as the future, and the present as that thin, precarious line where both meet. Precarious because as we stand there, it curves underfoot, ever-changing.

• [last lines] 

  Arlene : [on sail boat reading from "Two Years Before the Mast"]  In one week after leaving Cape Horn, the long, topgallant masts were got up, topgallant and royal yards crossed, and the ship restored to her fair proportions. The Southern Cross and Magellan Clouds settled lower and lower in the horizon...

  Arlene , Young Bo : [overlapping narration]  ... And so great was our change in latitude, that each succeeding night we sank some constellation in the south, and raised another in the northern horizon.
