Daily Dialogue — August 14, 2010

“Dear Diary: Heather told me she teaches people ‘real life.’ She said, real life sucks losers dry. You want to fuck with the eagles, you have to learn to fly. I said, so, you teach people how to spread their wings and fly? She said, yes. I said, you’re beautiful.”

 — Veronica Sawyer (Winona Ryder), Heathers (1989), written by Daniel Waters

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is notable opening lines. Heathers suggested by James.

Trivia: Friends Veronica Sawyer and Betty Finn are named after other fictional friends Veronica and Betty from the comic strip “Archie”, and Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
