David Halloran: Mind if I ask you something?
Paul Sellinger: No, not at all.
David Halloran: Why did you decide to go instead of that guy Wells?
Paul Sellinger: Oh, that's... that's rather complicated. I don't know how to answer that.
David Halloran: Try.
Paul Sellinger: Well, all my life, no matter what I did, I've always been the same thing: pleasant. I'm - I'm pleasant! I was a teacher, that's a pleasant profession. I'm rather pleasant-looking, if I do say so myself. If anyone were asked to describe me, they'd say I was... pleasant! Oh, I never minded it that much before, except now... it's beginning to hurt. More than I ever thought anything could hurt.
David Halloran: I don't know what you mean.
Paul Sellinger: Well, take a look at yourself.
David Halloran: I can't, I'm driving.
Paul Sellinger: No, I'm serious, take a good look at yourself and you'll see a hero.
David Halloran: That's a lot of crap. I'm not a hero and I don't wanna be one.
Paul Sellinger: Even if you don't want to be one, you are. You can't help it. You're the one who is ice-skating on the lake when the little boy falls into the freezing water and you save him. I'm the one who gives you my coat to wrap him in. And when it's all over, you're on the front page of all the newspapers, saying it was really nothing. And I have a wet coat
