“This case is complex. It's got layers to it, Davey. It's a fucking onion... You're a natural-born onion peeler -- the best that ever was.”
“Its an onion tree. Every time Sam takes off an onion, two more will grow in its place.”
“Indeed, you become what you eat. In which case I am an onion. Layered, slightly sour and guaranteed to bring tears to the eyes.”
“The difference between me and other people is that they all walk around with onion skins wrapped around them. Pre-meditations, pretentions, the faces that they present to the world, the faces that they present to themselves.. onion skins that come in layer after layer. They're on the inside of all that. And I... I am the inside of the onion skin walking around. I am only me.”
“Life is like an onion; you peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep.”
“He says I'm a regular onion! I keep him busy peeling away the layers.”
