Quotes |
Tzachi: What do you need a kid for? Motti: I don't know… Kids are endless love, they give life meaning. Tzachi: Meaning for who? Motti: For me, I mean us… For Noga and me. Tzachi: Precisely. You're bringing a small, helpless creature into the world to fill the void you're feeling living in this rotten world… If you truly love it, why would you do that to it? Nurit: Ok, let's talk about something else. Tzachi: No, no. This is important. Why have a kid? So you have someone to take care of you when you're old? Noga: It's way more than that and I guess you wouldn't get it because you're so obtuse. Tzachi: So, tell me, what more is there? Noga: Kids mean getting out of your own bubble… It's looking after someone other than yourself… To take care… To give… Tzachi: If you really want to give, adopt a dog… |
