"Now I have come to the cross-roads in my life. I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but I never took it. You know why? It was too damn hard."
- Lt. Col Frank Slade (Scent of a Woman)
(“在我的人生中也遇到过很多十字路口,需要我在路口作出抉择。我总是知道哪条路是正确的路,无一例外,我每次都知道。但是我从来没有选择那条正确的路。你知道为什么?因为走正确的路实在太艰难了。”
——福兰克.斯雷得中校(1992年电影《闻香识女人》)
