映画『アメリカン・ビューティー』より
"My name is Lester Burnham. This is my neighborhood. This is my street. This is my life. I'm forty-two years old. In less than a year, I'll be dead. Of course, I don't know that yet."
"I feel like I've been in a coma for about twenty years. And I'm just now waking up." → 「20年間ずっと昏睡状態だったみたいだ。そして今、ようやく目覚めたんだ。」
"Today is the first day of the rest of my life." → 「今日は残りの人生の最初の日だ。」
"Never underestimate the power of denial." → 「否認の力を甘く見るな。」
"I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me... but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much... My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst... And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it... And then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life..."
