George Mason: I don't know. Are you happy in this job? Believe it or not, I used to want to be a teacher. Long time ago. Know why I didn't? DOD offered me more money. That's how I made my decision. So I made myself miserable and made everyone around me miserable for an extra five thousand dollars a year. That was my price.
Michelle Dessler: Sorry.
George Mason: You know, Michelle, I'm not a big advice giver, but under the circumstances, don't wait for your life to happen to you. Find something that makes you happy. Do it. Because everything else… it’s just background noise.
George Mason: (to Jack) Hey, hey. Service is bad enough on this flight... you don't have to shoot me!
