... so what happens when you're wrong?
Nick Naylor:
Whoa, Joey I'm never wrong.
Joey Naylor:
But you can't always be right...
Nick Naylor:
Well, if it's your job to be right, then you're never wrong.
Joey Naylor:
But what if you are wrong?
Nick Naylor:
OK, let's say that you're defending chocolate, and I'm defending vanilla. Now if I were to say to you: 'Vanilla is the best flavour ice-cream', you'd say...
Joey Naylor:
No, chocolate is.
Nick Naylor:
Exactly, but you can't win that argument... so, I'll ask you: so you think chocolate is the end all and the all of ice-cream, do you?
Joey Naylor:
It's the best ice-cream, I wouldn't order any other.
Nick Naylor:
Oh! So it's all chocolate for you is it?
Joey Naylor:
Yes, chocolate is all I need.
Nick Naylor:
Well, I need more than chocolate, and for that matter I need more than vanilla. I believe that we need freedom. And choice when it comes to our ice-cream, and that Joey Naylor, that is the definition of liberty.
Joey Naylor:
But that's not what we're talking about
Nick Naylor:
Ah! But that's what I'm talking about.
Joey Naylor:
...but you didn't prove that vanilla was the best...
Nick Naylor:
I didn't have to. I proved that you're wrong, and if you're wrong I'm right.
Joey Naylor:
But you still didn't convince me
Nick Naylor:
It's that I'm not after you. I'm after them.
