"That's enough therapy. From here on out, I think I could do a hell of a lot more for both of us as your agent."

"Well, Clive, what I REALLY want to do it wait on tables."

"Sure, if this was New York, I'd be your editor and you'd be the author - but this is L.A., so I'm your agent and you're the whatever."
