Curtis Armstrong: Security Guard God

Quotes 

• Joan : [being wanded]  What? I didn't set off any alarm! So unless you want to sentence me to death for possession of Gummi Bears, I would like to go to class.

  Security Guard God : You seem very upset, Joan. Take a breath.

  Joan : Fascist God?

• Security Guard God : You made quite an impression in there.

  Joan : I don't need the sarcasm. I tried to debate. I tried to do what you wanted, and I lost it, okay?

  Security Guard God : I thought it all turned out just fine. What you did up there, it was true. You found your voice.

  Joan : [sardonic laugh]  Great. Great. Thanks for the lesson. It cost me my friend.

  Security Guard God : Oh, what, because you two don't agree about things?

  Joan : I don't have a lot of friends, okay?

  Security Guard God : Do you know what grace is, Joan?

  Joan : Yeah. Pissed off.

  Security Guard God : Do you know the *meaning* of grace? It's a touch of truth that lets you see the world in a new way. It's a gift that can only be felt when you're open enough to accept it.
