Hunter Patch Adams:You told Walcott I cheated. I know you did it. Just tell me why.Mitch Roman:Look, cut the crap, Hunter. I live with you. I know how much you study, or don't study.

I know what it takes to look in the eyes of dying people day after day and come home for dinner at night. I know what it takes. You don't have it.Hunter Patch Adams:Oh, really. And you do? If you don't like me, just say it.Mitch Roman:I don't like you!Hunter Patch Adams:Why don't you like me? You're a prick, and I like you.Mitch Roman:Because you make my effort a joke!

Because when that day comes I want the prick! And so will you.Hunter Patch Adams:You know, I forget how young you are, Mitch, that you think you have to be a prick to get things done, and that you actually think that's a new idea
