  • Declan: Listen, I'm about to start a class, but you're more than welcome to stay, if you...of course, last time we had an earthquake, and my lectures don't get much more exciting than that.

  • Declan: What if the 29th really is important? Not in the way that you think, but...maybe it's more of a beginning than an end, you know? Nobody knows when the world is going to end, Bob, but we've got to prepare like it could happen at any second; get out there and spend time with people that you love. Make the most out of every second that you've got, you know? When's the last time you and your family had fun? Just got away? []
