What happened? What do you mean? This place. It looks a little depressing. I don't know,...

[Justin see's Dr. Perry for the last time in his new office before leaving off to college]
Justin Cobb: What happened?
Dr. Perry Lyman: What do you mean?
Justin Cobb: This place. It looks a little depressing.
Dr. Perry Lyman: I don't know, I... I guess I stopped trying to be anything. I accepted myself and all my human disorder. You might wanna do the same. Do you remember when you were like, 13 or something, you were... You were always doing an impression of a newsman.
Justin Cobb: [chuckles] I did?

Justin Cobb: Sorry.

Justin Cobb: I just came here for a checkup.

Dr. Perry Lyman: No, really. Look. Justin... there was nothing wrong with you.

And why is that so bad? That's all we humans can do. Guess. Try. Hope. But, Justin, just pray you don't fool yourself into thinking you've got the answer. Because that's bullshit. The trick is living without an answer. I think.
[both chuckle and laugh]
Dr. Perry Lyman: [Dr. Perry chuckles and lights another cigarette] I think
