[last lines]
James : So I raise a morphine toast to you. And, should you remember that it's the anniversary of my birth, remember that you were loved by me and you made my life a happy one. And there's no tragedy in that.
-
James : We've all forgotten that moment when you realize you'll never play in the World Cup Final, or... be the first man on Mars... And all those daydreams become fantasies rather than possibilities.
-
James : Tomorrow, I'm going to swim out into the bay and I'm not coming back. I know the enormity of this, but I'm asking you to let me swim.
-
James : [Bill and James are being lowered down the rock face with Bill holding James in front of him] Why is it that I'm always the one that's getting it rather than giving it?
-
James : I don't want to die. I want more time. I want more time. Take all of your pointless consumer fucking lives. I was going to do so much. I was going to be special.
-
James : Don't you ever get the urge to do something really dangerous?
-
James : I'll swim as far as I can. I'd rather not be alone, mate.
-
James : This is how my life is going to be from now on. Because of the pain. Because of the drugs I take for the pain, because of the drugs I take for the side effects of the other drugs. I mean, you've seen it. It's only going to get worse. My life's all up here now, really. It's taking over and gradually I'm going to slip further and further into thinking only about pain and that's not worth living for!
