Top rated lines from this movie

We think our childish toys bring us all the happiness there is and our nursery is the whole wide world. But something... Something must drive us out of the nursery to the world of others, and that something is suffering.

Give me blizzards and frozen pipes, but not this, nothing time. Not this, waiting room of the world.
