On the road, the simplest things make for a good day

“That’s what I like about traveling — you can sit down, maybe talk to someone interesting, see something beautiful, read a book, and that’s enough to qualify as a good day. You do that at home and everyone thinks you’re a bum.”
–Richard Linklater and Kim Krazan, Before Sunrise screenplay (1995)

    Great film, even better sequel. This is definitely one of Jesse’s lines, no? From the train? Good stuff.
