Quotes 

• Josh : For the first time in my life I've stopped thinking of myself as a child imitating an adult.

  Cornelia : You feel that way too?

• Cornelia : It's like their apartment is full of everything we once threw out, but it looks so good the way they have it.

• Cornelia : I wish you'd look at me the way you look at Jamie and Darby. When we first met, you wooed me with romantic e-mails.

  Josh : It wouldn't make sense for me to send you e-mails now that we're in the same room all the time.

• Josh : I like our life as it is.

  Cornelia : Yeah. I mean if we wanted to take off to Paris tomorrow we could.

  Josh : If we're gonna do it, we should plan it with at least a month in advance.

  Cornelia : A month is still in the realm of spontaneity.

• Josh : You know, fuck you.

  Cornelia : Fuck you. Don't talk to me like that.

  Josh : I'm saying "fuck you" the way Jamie and Darby say it, where it's not a real "fuck you," it's a semi-playful "fuck you."

  Cornelia : We're not Jamie and Darby. We don't talk to each other that way. If you say "fuck you" to me, it feels like a real "fuck you."

  Josh : It is real.

  Cornelia : Fuck you. And not semi-playfully either.

  Josh : Fuck you. Total, real, cutting-to-the-core, fuck you.

• Josh : Let's have kids.

  Cornelia : I don't want this to be 'Every time you take a hallucinogen you want to have a baby'.

  Josh : Not every time.

• Cornelia : We've got this Ayahuasca ceremony this weekend with Jamie and Darby.

  Marina : What's an Ayahuasca ceremony?

  Cornelia : You drink this sludgy liquid and you hallucinate and vomit up your demons.

  Marina : Okay. Well, we're just having a cookout and maybe playing charades.

• Cornelia : My dad likes saying, "The more, the more."

  Josh : That's because your dad has everything and then he gets more.

• Tim : Why is it that when one person picks up their phone, everybody else has to?

  Cornelia : I just have a quick thing...

  Tim : Each of us is so certain that we've got the most important thing to do right now.

  Cornelia : [still using her phone]  I know, it's so rude.

• Cornelia : They made a house out of twigs. And the wolf came.

  Josh : He blows it down.

  Cornelia : Yeah, but what happens in the middle?

  Josh : I keep wanting to do 'This little piggy went to the market, but that's with the toes'.

• Cornelia : Josh, you know the world isn't a giant conspiracy against you.

• Jamie : I mean, you're producing but he could bless it, essentially.

  Cornelia : Bless it? Like a sneeze?

  Jamie : No. I was thinking more like the pope.
