Five Pillars (2015)

Aaron Jeffcoate: Gary

Quotes 

• Gary : I remember that day. I was nine. Or maybe eight. I remember watching them fall, wondering what they must have been thinking. "It's alright, it's alright. So far, so good." That hope that everything's okay while you fall into oblivion. And I wondered if anything like that could ever happen here."

• Gary : Maybe we're just fed up of being told how much better everyone else is than us... What about being white? What's wrong with that? It doesn't pay to be white and working class anymore.

• Gary : I'm doing a bit of my own stuff now, freelancing.

  David : That's the best way, working for your self, no boss. You'll be middle class before you know it.

• Gary : I heard what you were saying the other day. Talking about me and Billy like we were criminals just because we get our hands dirty working for a living.

  [to Ruth] 

  Gary : It doesn't make you an angel, love, sitting on your arse behind a desk all day. Crushing other people's lives.

• Gary : You'll only keep people like me down for so long. Cause and effect, my friend.
