Bug : I'm scared.
Alex : We're sixteen, Bug. Like it or not, we're men now.
Bug : I don't feel like a man!
Alex : No one does, that's why you gotta fake it.
Bug : Fake being a man to be a man?
Alex : That's the way it works. You can't run, you have to face your fear like a man.
Bug : Even though I'm not a man?
Alex : Because you're not a man. Listen, the better you fake it, the better man you are.
Bug : Just fake it.
Alex : Fake it good. Like if you're scared, act like you don't give a shit, or if somebody hurts you, say, "Thank you very much, that felt wonderful."
Bug : [practicing] Thanks, Brandon, that-I can't raise my arm, feels good.
Alex : Yeah, there you go.
Bug : Is that all you got, Brandon? I mean... I feel downright... cheated!
Alex : I'm amazed that you're getting this so quick, it's tricky stuff.
Bug : I was faking what I did.
Alex : You were?
Bug : [nods] Completely.
Alex : Yeah, but you were faking it good.
Bug : I was?
Alex : Abso-fuckin'-lutely. You now have permission to shave.

Alex : No, it's not okay, what I did. It's not okay for everybody to be killing each other all the time.
-
Alex : They will come for you with torches.
-
Alex : [to Bug] If you're not innocent any more, that's okay.
-
Alex : The fish stinks from the head.
-
Alex : You're a condor. You eat death for breakfast. Remember that.
