“Having perfected our disguise, we spend our lives searching for someone we don’t fool.”
Robert Brault

Matt Damon
“Sean: …………And I'd ask you about war, you'd probably throw Shakespeare at me, right, "once more unto the breach dear friends." But you've never been near one. You've never held your best friend's head in your lap, watch him gasp his last breath looking to you for help. I'd ask you about love, you'd probably quote me a sonnet. But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone that could level you with her eyes, feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you. Who could rescue you from the depths of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel, to have that love for her, be there forever, through anything, through cancer. And you wouldn't know about sleeping sitting up in the hospital room for two months, holding her hand, because the doctors could see in your eyes, that the terms "visiting hours" don't apply to you. You don't know about real loss, 'cause it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself. And I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much. And look at you... I don't see an intelligent, confident man... I see a scared shitless kid. But you're a genius Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw a painting of mine, and you ripped my life apart. You're an orphan right?
[Will nods]
Sean: You think I know the first thing about how hard your life has been, how you feel, who you are, because I read Oliver Twist? Does that encapsulate you? Personally... I don't give a shit about all that, because you know what, I can't learn anything from you, I can't read in some book. Unless you want to talk about you, who you are. Then I'm fascinated. I'm in. But you don't want to do that do you sport? You're terrified of what you might say. Your move, chief.”

“یہ تعلق چیز ہی ایسی ہے. انسان کو بھگل کردیتا ہے. ...صوفیا تو کہتے ہیں کہ رستے کا سب سے بڑا حجاب ہی تعلق ہے.نہ تعلق سے دل خالی ہوتا ہے، نہ اصلی قرار دل میں آتا ہے. معمولی سے مہمان کے لئے کمرہ خالی کرنا پڑتا ہے. پھر اوپر والے کے لئے تو چھوٹا سا بت بھی اندر رہ جاۓ تو اسکی سواری نہیں اترتی”
