Three-Inch Diamond Stars

 

About two years ago, Matt replaced my car radio with a DVD player. (Thank you!) Now, wherever we go, we’re watching Pixar movies. Or at least Heather is. I have to watch the road. We don’t drive a lot, so it takes us about two weeks to get through a two-hour movie. When you only LISTEN to movies, you tend to hear gems you barely noticed while WATCHING. Here’s what I noticed while listening to Ratatouille last week:

Dad: We look out for our own kind, Remy. When all is said and done, we're all we've got.

Remy: No.

Dad: What?

Remy: No. Dad, I don't believe it. You're telling me, that the future is - can only be - more of this?

Dad: This is the way things are. You can't change nature.

Remy: Change is nature, Dad. The part we can influence. And it starts when we decide.

Dad: Where are you going?

Remy: With luck, forward.
