  • [To Mike as they watch his granddaughter play basketball] The horse represents all of our fears and traumas and it's got us running around a hundred miles an hour to the point where we can't even answer a simple question: Where are you going? Where are you going Mike? ... You gotta take control of your life. You gotta grab the reins before your horse runs you off a cliff.
