Naked



Johnny: Resolve is never stronger than in the morning after it was never weaker.

Johnny: No matter how many books you read, there is something in this world that you never ever ever ever ever fucking understand.

Johnny: I've got an infinite number of places to go, the problem is somewhere to stay.

Louise: So what happened, were you bored in Manchester?
Johnny: Was I bored? No, I wasn't fuckin' bored. I'm never bored. That's the trouble with everybody - you're all so bored. You've had nature explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the living body explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the universe explained to you and you're bored with it, so now you want cheap thrills and, like, plenty of them, and it doesn't matter how tawdry or vacuous they are as long as it's new as long as it's new as long as it flashes and fuckin' bleeps in forty fuckin' different colors. So whatever else you can say about me, I'm not fuckin' bored.

Johnny: Oh, "Jane Austen" by Emma. That's one of me favorite books.

[Mike Leigh, 1993. It's just one of those movies...]
