Collateral Beauty is NOW playing in theaters.
Closer to the beginning of the movie, Will Smith’s character speaks on the relationship between time, love and death and repeats it at least twice. Something like we question love, love time, fear death?
I remember his statement in the beginning was super profound too, Michele…After asking “what is your WHY?” I believe it was more like – we all long to love and be loved, we all wish we had more time, and we all fear death.
The exact quote – “Howard Inlet: We’re here to connect. Love, time, death. Now these three things connect every single human being on earth. We long for love, we wish we had more time, and we fear death.”
If I can remember correctly the quote from Death was “death is not always the end; it’s only how you look at it”. My first love died in a car accident when I was 17; fast forward 40 years and I still say his name….time is revolving, never ending.
Looking for the quote about being a mom..it’s the one ‘time’ told Kate
Children won’t come from you, they come through you. – time
Been searching in vain for the quote from “Time” talking to Claire about motherhood and how it’s more important – the kids who come through you rather than come from you. Anyone know that one?
I too have been searching for that piece of dialog quoted….I wish us both success in finding it….I like the part that you “added” to my void….kids who come to you…as opposed to through you.
I’m searching for the same quote! It resonated with me.
Exact Quote
“There was this dust dealer up on 187th who gave me Brave New World. That book turned hours into seconds. He was my father. And there was this homeless woman who lived under the University Heights bridge. Her name was Flora. She was batshit crazy, but she told me the greatest stories. She was my mother. See, Claire, your children don’t have to come from you. They go through you. So I wouldn’t consider the battle with time over just yet.”
(watched the DVD with captions on and copied it over in here)
There was a line said by Love that I cannot remember, but it was something like “love is the why”…-anyone remember? It was towards the end.
Toward the end of the movie, when Claire was talking to TIME —and about whether she would ever have a child–Time says something about “a child does not have to pass through you for _____________” and he talks about “his parents” who seemed to be random people that profoundly influenced his life.
Does anyone remember the EXACT quote?
I’m looking for the quotes from love towards the end of the movie when they were in the streets and he was mad at her bc she broke his heart and she said “I was there in her laugh but I’m also here now in your pain” and then she said something about a storm. Anyone know what that was?
i would so want to have the monologue of Will Smith speaking to Death in the subway, what he says about religious and other views toward death.
mee too
there is a point he breaks down in the train saying he has heard all the boring consolation statements
I would like the final dialogue with love.
