Defending Your Life Quotes

 Julia:
I can't get you out of my mind.
Daniel Miller:
Tell me about it. You know these screenings are so tough for me. And yet when I see you I instantly feel OK.
Julia:
So that's great, right?
Daniel Miller:
Well I don't think it has anything to do with me, that's what worries me. I think you're doing it.
Julia:
What - what am I doing?
Daniel Miller:
I'm not sure. But I always read that you had to be OK with yourself first before you could be OK with another person. Now I feel OK with you. But I don't know how OK I was with myself before I met you, so maybe you're making me OK.
Julia:
You're not that OK.
Daniel Miller:
OK.

[two judges come in the trial room]
Lena Foster:
Morning.
Daniel's judge:
Good morning.
Daniel's judge:
Good morning.
Bob Diamond:
Good morning.
Daniel Miller:
Good morning. [Bob Diamond signals Daniel to be seated]
Daniel's judge:
Mr. Miller, I'm sure your defender has explained all of the basics to you, but let me just say. Even though this feels like a trial, it really isn't. It's just a process that helps us decide, and as inperfect as it may be, we think it works quite well.
Daniel's judge:
What you're going to see on this screen, Mr. Miller, will look and feel so real to you you might be a little uneasy at first. But just relax. After a while, I think it will become pleasurable to you. They tell me it feels something like 3-D. [female judge chuckles]
Daniel's judge:
Any questions, Mr. Miller? [Daniel shakes his head "No"]
Daniel's judge:
Ms. Foster, you may begin.
Lena Foster:
Thank you, your honors. Over the course of the following four days, I will attempt to show that Daniel Miller, while he's a quality human being, is still held back by the fears that plague him lifetime after lifetime. I believe that I can show, without a shadow of a doubt, that he must once again be returned to Earth to wrok on his problem. May we begin in childhood, please? Could we go to 11419?
Daniel's judge:
By the way, Mr. Miller, that signifies you're 11 years, four months, and 19 days old. Is that clear?
Daniel Miller:
I think so.
