Quote from Diane in Sam at Eleven
Diane: Let's come back to that. Other people have been through what you're feeling. Even, in a slightly different way, myself. Would you, uh... Would you like me to share an experience from my life when I was horribly defeated and humiliated? Sam: Diane, I don't wanna hear a lead in a high school play story. Diane: Oh, it's not a lead in the high school play story. Sam: Well, I don't wanna hear an "l didn't get asked out to the junior prom" story. Diane: It's not an "l didn't get asked out to the junior prom" story. Sam: Well, I sure as hell don't wanna hear an "l didn't get elected cheerleader" story. Diane: OK, if you're just gonna make a big joke about it... Sam: I hit it, didn't l? Diane: Sam, I was terrific!
