If nobody said anything unless he knew what he was talking about, a ghastly hush would descend upon the earth.
The aspects of patriotism that hush dissent, encourage going along, and sanction comfortable distancing and compliance with what is indecent and unacceptable... those aspects are too fundamental to ignore or gloss over.
'Be comfortable with who you are', reads the headline on the Hush Puppies poster. Are they mad? If people were comfortable with who they were, they'd never buy any products except the ones they needed, and then where would the advertising industry be?
Justice Rehnquist was friendly and unpretentious. He wore scuffed Hush Puppy shoes. That was my first lesson. Clothes do not make the man. The Justice sported long sideburns and Buddy Holly glasses long after they were fashionable. And he wore loud ties that I am confident were never fashionable.
Rick Grimes: So this is where you plan to do it?
Shane Walsh: As good a place as any.
Rick Grimes: At least have the balls to call this what it is: murder. You really believe if you walk back onto that farm alone, no me, no Randall...
Shane Walsh: Why don't you hush up?
Rick Grimes: You
really believe they're gonna buy whatever bullshit story you cook up?
Shane Walsh: That's just it, it ain't no story. I saw that prisoner shoot you down. I ran after him, I snapped his neck. It ain't gonna be easy, but Lori and Carl, they'll get over you. They done it before. They just gonna have to.
[raises gun]
Rick Grimes: Why? Why now? I
thought we worked this all out.
Shane Walsh: [chuckling] We tried to kill each other, man. What you think, we were just gonna forget about it? Oh, we gonna ride off into the sunset together?
Rick Grimes: You're gonna kill me in cold blood? Screw my wife? Have my children, *my* children, call you "daddy"? Is that what you want? That life won't be
worth a damn. I know you. You won't be able to live with this.
Shane Walsh: What you know 'bout what I can live with? You got no idea what I can live with, what I live with! You wanna talk about what I can do, Rick? How 'bout what you can do.
[holsters weapon]
Shane Walsh: Here I am. Come on, man, raise your gun.
Rick
Grimes: No. No, I will not.
Shane Walsh: What happened, Rick? I thought you weren't the good guy anymore; ain't that what you said? Even right here, right now, you ain't gonna fight for 'em? I'm a better father than you, Rick! I'm better for Lori than you, man! It's because I'm a better man than you, Rick, 'cause I can be here and I'll fight for it. But you come
back here and you just *destroy* everything!... You got a broken woman. Y-you got a weak boy. You ain't got the first clue on how to fix it.
[points gun at Rick]
Shane Walsh: Raise your gun.
Rick Grimes: You're gonna have to kill an unarmed man.
Buzz Lightyear: Lotso, there's been a mistake.
Lotso: A mistake?
Buzz Lightyear: The children in the Caterpillar Room are not age-appropriate for me and my friends. We respectfully request a transfer to the Butterfly Room.
Lotso: Well, request granted!
Ken: But Lotso...
Lotso: Hush now, Kenneth. This toy showed initiative, leadership. Why I'd say, we have ourselves a keeper. You hear that? We got a keeper!
[Lotso's gang cheers in delight]
Lotso: We're calling you up to the big leagues, son. From now on, you'll have anything you want.
Buzz Lightyear: Excellent. I'll go get my friends.
Lotso: Whoa, Whoa. Hold on there, Boss man. Those Caterpillar kids need *someone* to play with.
Buzz Lightyear: But my friends don't belong there.
Lotso: Oh, none of us do, I agree. Which is why, for the good of our community, we ask the newer toys, the stronger ones, to take one the hardships the rest of us can't bear anymore.
Buzz Lightyear: Well, I... I guess that makes sense. But I can't accept. We're a family. We stay together.
Lotso: [icily] Family man, huh? I understand.
[to Big Baby]
Lotso: Put him back in the timeout chair!
Buzz Lightyear: What are you... Unhand me!
Boyd 'Bible' Swan: You from Missouri?
Norman Ellison: No.
Trini 'Gordo' Garcia: You from Chicago?
Grady 'Coon-Ass' Travis: Nah, you're from Arkansas, ain't you?
Norman Ellison: No, I'm from Pittsburgh...
Grady 'Coon-Ass' Travis: Hey, hush up, man, nobody gives a
fuck where you're from.
