The world is changing out there. There's a lot of new, exciting ideas running around. Some of them might be right and some might be cockeyed, but they're affecting all our lives.

— Johnny Case (Cary Grant)

Quote context

[...]

- Well, maybe what you need is some time out from what you've been doing. You know, day in, day out.

- You mean from what I've not been doing days in, please, years out.

- How does your garden grow, Case? Is life wonderful where you are?

- But it hasn't been?

- I don't call what I've been doing living.

- And what do you recommend for yourself, doctor?

- For how long?

- For as long as I need.

- You mean just to play?

- No, I've been working since I was ten. I want to find out why I'm working. The answer can't be just to pay bills or to pile up more money. Even if you do, the government's gonna take most of it.

- Yes, but what is the answer?

- I don't know. That's what I intend to find out.

- The world is changing out there. There's a lot of new, exciting ideas running around. Some of them might be right and some might be cockeyed, but they're affecting all our lives.

- I want to know how I stand, where I fit into the picture, what it's all going to mean to me. I can't find that out sitting behind some desk in an office, so as soon as I get enough money together, I'm gonna knock off for a while.

- I want to save part of my life for myself.

- There's a catch to it though. It's got to be part of the young part. You know, retire young and work old. Come back and work when I know what I'm working for.

- Does that make sense to you?

- That makes a lot of sense.

- Does, um, Julia know?

- No. I don't want to raise her hopes until I get enough money together.

Yooo-oh! Bad echo.

Oh, I've got all the faith in the world in Johnny. Whatever he does is all right with me. If he wants to dream for a while, he can dream for a while, and if he wants to come back and sell peanuts, oh, how I'll believe in those peanuts.

What special virtue this room has I'm sure I don't know. -You don't, do you? No, you can't. Well, I'll tell you. This room's my home. It's the only home I've got. There's something here that I understand and that understands me. Maybe it's Mother.

The world is changing out there. There's a lot of new, exciting ideas running around. Some of them might be right and some might be cockeyed, but they're affecting all our lives.

Well, I feel like a goat being prepared for the sacrifice. -Baaa! -Now, that's a sheep.
