“The problem with getting everything you want in life is that you're not prepared for disappointment when it comes.”

“If you're looking for Mr. Perfect, you‟re going to spend your whole life being disappointed, because he doesn‟t exist. You have to get the best deal you can, but there will always be problems.”

“If you're solving someone else's problem, you're constantly stabbing in the dark. When you solve your own problem, the light comes on.”

“You're such an optimist Kane -- that's your problem. You only end up disappointed.”

“There was never anything wrong with my life. Perhaps that was the problem... The crack in my life was the fact that I had everything I wanted, or could ever want—and when you have it all, boredom grows like a fungus, coating everything you own and everything you feel.”

“The goal of life is to take everything that made you weird as a kid and get people to pay you money for it when you're older.”
