    • Quotes

      [Keller is leaving to stand trial in Massachusetts for a murder he did not commit]

      Chris Keller: See ya.

      Tobias Beecher: [scoffs] When?

      Chris Keller: Back here. Or in heaven.

      Tobias Beecher: You really think we're going to get into heaven?

      Chris Keller: Aw, you and me together. God doesn't have the balls to keep us out.

      [Keller is pulled away by the guards, zoom in on Beecher's sad face, Augustus begins narration]

      Augustus Hill: The worst stab wound is the one to the heart. Sure, most people survive it, but the heart is never quite the same.

      [cut to Augustus, sitting in the dark]

      Augustus Hill: There's always a scar. Which is meant, I guess, to remind you that - even for a little while - someone made your heart beat faster. And that's a scar you can live with. Proudly. All the days of your life.

      [blackout]
