movie quotations

(a) - "No, man. Alaska, Alaska. I'm gonna be all the way out there, all the way fucking out there. Just on my own. You know, no fucking watch, no map, no axe, no nothing. No nothing. Just be out there. Just be out there in it. You know, big mountains, rivers, sky, game. Just be out there in it, you know? In the wild."

(b) - "Society, man! You know, society! Cause, you know what I don't understand? I don't understand why people, why every fucking person is so bad to each other so fucking often. It doesn't make sense to me. Judgment. Control. All that, the whole spectrum. Well, it just..." "parents, hypocrites, politicians, pricks."

(c) - "rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth"

a: This quot took place at at bar with Westberg. I think this was Chris's simple way of putting his adventure. Just being "out there" it makes it clear that he needs to escape and he doesn't need anyone, or anything to accomplish this. This is memorable to me because this was a scene where it showed Chris loosed up. Hes drinking and having a good time, and talking about the simple side of his trip.

b: This furthers the apparent problem that Chris has with society, and also clears up some reasons he has for going to Alaska. To simply put he has a problem with the types of people or society mainly consists of; "parents, hypocrites, politicians, pricks". This quot is made around the same time as my A quot was made. therefor giving me the same reason as to why it was memorable to me. it shows the same loosened up Chris that wasn't shown too much during the story.

c: This stuck in my mind for a few reasons. Its deep, and uncommon perspective no shared by many today. it shows Chris being tuf skinned, and wanting to know the way thing really are. He holds truth highly above love, fame and money. Things most of us would presumably choose over truth.
