Movie Quote of the Day 45

Today’s quote comes from one of my favorite films featuring my favorite actor Jack Nicholson and this quote is direct from him . . .

Its not true. Some have great stories, pretty stories that take place at lakes with boats and friends and noodle salad. Just no one in this car. But a lot of people, that’s their story. Good times, noodle salad. What makes it so hard is not that you had it bad, but your just that pissed so many others had it good.”
