Wilson quotes from 7th Heaven

Wilson

Some mistakes are like jumping out of a plane. Once you do it, you can't take it back.

Wilson

[to Mary] Marry me. We belong together and I love you.

Lucy

[at a support group] My friend was killed in a car accident. Her sister was with her. She was injured, and now I don't know what to say to my friend's sister.

What did people say to you that was comforting?

Wilson

Actually, we talk a lot about what people say that doesn't comfort you at all.

"You'll see her again when you die".

"He's resting now". I was seven. I thought it meant that when my dad rested enough, he'd come back. It totally spooked me.

"It was meant to be". That's my favorite.

"Meant to be". I mean, what is that? My brother was meant to get shot?

Lucy

Is there anything anybody can say?

Wilson

Maybe the truth. Things like "This totally sucks".

That's what I wanted to say out loud at the funeral, but I couldn't because nobody would have understood! That and "I'm glad it wasn't me". It sounds selfish, but I'm glad to be alive. I've got a lot of things I want to do with my life.

Lucy

That's so weird. I feel the exact same way, like every single person on this earth is one second away from leaving the planet, me included. And you know, it's like there must be a reason I'm here. God must have had a reason for keeping me here. Otherwise, why wouldn't I have been in that car?

Wilson

Right after my wife died, I felt the exact same way. Why didn't I die? Why her? Why did she have to suffer through such a difficult labor and then die in the end?

Mary

I think I have to tell you that I have a boyfriend.

Wilson

Here in Buffalo?

Mary

No, back home.

Wilson

In Glenoak?

Mary

Yeah... In Glenoak... At my home. Robbie lives with my family.

Wilson

Is he planning to move out here?

Mary

No.

Wilson

Are you planning to back there?

Mary

No.

Wilson

Long distance relationships don't usually work out.

Mary

I know.

Mary

What are you doing here?

Wilson

I'm trying to stop you from making a huge mistake.

Mary

What we had in New York stays in New York and I'm leaving New York. End of story. I want to go home.

Wilson

Yes, but do you want to go home to Robbie?

Mary

Yeah. I love him.

Wilson

No, you love me. I know you do. Come on, how many people get a second chance? This is our second chance. Don't blow it.

Mary

I'm sorry, Wilson, I'm going home and that's what you should do. To just go home and forget about me. It's over.
