(quotes) tv series: lost
someone just lent me his lost cd this recent saturday. said he learned a lot from it. found some quotes interesting.
****
****
Sayid: Hope is a very dangerous thing to lose.
*****
Locke: What do you suppose is in that cocoon, Charlie?
Charlie: I don't know. A butterfly, I guess.
Locke: No, it's much more beautiful than that. That's a moth cocoon. It's ironic - butterflies get all the attention, but moths, they spin silk. They're stronger. They're faster.
Charlie: That's wonderful, but...
Locke: You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it.
*****
Locke: Because a leader can't lead until he knows where he's going.
****
Locke: I'm not lost any more.
Sun Kwon: How did you do that?
Locke: The same way anything lost gets found - I stopped looking.
*****
Mr. Eko: Do not mistake coincidence for fate.
