Joe Black: Careful Bill, you’ll give yourself a heart attack and ruin my vacation.
Drew: Who would have believed it; you, an IRS agent?
Joe Black: Death and taxes.
William Parrish: When I introduce you, and I tell them who you are, I don’t think anyone will stay for dinner.
Drew: We all know this deal is as certain as death and taxes.
Joe Black: Death and taxes?
Drew: Yes.
Joe Black: Death and taxes?
Drew: Yes.
Joe Black: What an odd pairing.
William Parrish: Love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can’t live without. Someone you fall head over heels for. Find someone you can love like crazy, and will love you the same way back. Listen to your heart. No sense in life without this. To make the journey without falling deeply in love, you haven’t lived a life at all. You have to try, because if you haven’t tried, then you haven’t lived.
William Parrish: 65 years. Don’t they go by in a blink?

Joe Black: …But Allison loves you? How do you know?

And what I dream of is a man who will discover her, and that she will discover a man who will love her, who is worthy of her, who is of this world, this time and has the grace, compassion, and fortitude to walk beside her as she makes her way through this beautiful thing called life.
