The Air I Breathe Quotes

Forest Whitaker as Happiness

  • (Forest Whitaker) "What am I supposed to do with this?"
  • (Brendan Fraser) "I don't know anymore."
  • (Forest Whitaker) "So where does change come from? And how do we recognize it when it happens?"
  • (Forest Whitaker) "I always wondered, when a butterfly leaves the safety of its cocoon, does it realize how beautiful it has become? Or does it still just see itself as a caterpillar?"
  • (Forest Whitaker) "When I was a kid, I knew the secret to a happy life. Play by the rules, work hard in school. And if you work hard in school, then your reward is -- more school. And after more school, then you're given the best life has to offer. A job, and money, and a future. Filled with unending, singular pursuit, for more."

Brendan Fraser as Pleasure

  • (Brendan Fraser) "As far back as I can remember, I've never lost a fight. I didn't fight well because I was big or fast or mean. I fought well because I could see the future. The problem with seeing the future is that it only comes in bits and pieces, like a reflection in a broken mirror. After a while though it's like playing a video game in your head. Do it enough times and you know all the moves."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "The girl with the future I can't see, enters my life."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "On the same day, my visions fail me for the first time."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "Sometimes the things you can't change end up changing you."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "When you can see the future, you think you're capable of changing it. But you're just a witness to coming moments, unable to help, even if you wanted to and maybe you don't. Sometimes you think you're supposed to learn something, about patience or distance, but in the end it's all about discipline. Seeing things you don't always want to and just moving on. After a while things become easier. Your dream keeps your mind from wandering. You begin to accept things as they are. Every man has his destiny. You can't escape it, even if you can see it coming."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "It's the wildest effort when you know what's going to happen. Will watching a person's fate give it purpose? Or is it just the muted feeling of watching a movie when you know how it ends? And then something happens that I will never forget; I'm wrong. For the first time ever, fate takes a detour and I glimpse something strange and new. A future where anything can happen. It's a beautiful thing. And the feeling it gives me is as close as I've ever felt -- to pleasure."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "It's done."
  • (Andy Garcia) "Good. I need you to pick somebody up at the airport."
  • (Brendan Fraser) "I know --"
  • (Brendan Fraser) "Tell me --"
  • (Sasha Pieterse) "Tell you what?"
  • (Brendan Fraser) "Your real name?"
