Walon quotes from The Wire

Walon

You're disappointed. Shit, this ain't about the bug, is it? This is you trying to make the past be everything, mean everything. You don't even want to think about the here and now. Sorry, Bubs. Shame ain't worth as much as you think. Let it go.

Walon

Look, forgiveness from other folks is good, but ain't nothin' but words comin' at you from outside. You want to kick this shit, you got to forgive your own self. Love yourself some, brother. And then drag your sorry ass to some meetings.

Bubbles

Meetings?

Walon

What the fuck do you wanna hear? That you're strong enough to do this by yourself? Gettin' clean's the easy part. And then comes life.

Kima

Bubs got some problems, but insincerity ain't one of them.

Walon

Shame is some tricky shit, ain't it? Makes you feel like you want to change, and then beats you back down when you think you can't.
