This is the first in a new breed of post that will come up on the site from time to time. I feel compelled to share my favourite shots from my favourite movies, with my favourite quotes from that movie. Here is the first.
"You have a son, maybe you name him James. It's a good strong name. And maybe, one day, years from now, long after I'm dead and gone, reunited with your dear mother, you gather your whole family together, and tell them the truth. Who you are. Where you come from. You tell them the whole story. Then you ask them if they know how lucky they are to be there.
It all came so close to never happening. This life came so close to never happening."
-- 25th Hour [2002]
