Darius: You know, uh, not all great things come from great pain. Sometimes it's love. Not everything's a sacrifice.
Theodore 'Teddy' Perkins: Sacrifices are necessary, Darius.
Darius: Yeah, maybe. But your dad should have said sorry. I'm sorry. Shit. I went through daddy shit myself. But when you're young, you try to just... make it be okay and say everything's gonna be fine. And that's just, you don't know the difference, but... that don't give you an excuse to grow up and repeat the same shit over and over. It's like there's a, there's a "what if" factor. What if you would've been great at something else? Or you would've seen the love... instead of all the other shit, like Stevie.
Theodore 'Teddy' Perkins: I'm sorry?
Darius: Stevie Wonder.
Theodore 'Teddy' Perkins: Stevie had his own... sacrifices. He was blind.
Darius: Yeah but he wasn't blinded. He saw through his music.
Theodore 'Teddy' Perkins: That's beautiful... but wrong.
