Garden State: "that idea of home is gone."

"You know that point in your life when you realize the house you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of a sudden even though you have some place where you put your shit, that idea of home is gone."

"I still feel at home in my house."

"You'll see one day when you move out it just sort of happens one day and it's gone. You feel like you can never get it back. It's like you feel homesick for a place that doesn't even exist. Maybe it's like this rite of passage, you know. You won't ever have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for your kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I don't know, but I miss the idea of it, you know. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people that miss the same imaginary place."
"Maybe. "

This is honestly one of the deepest things I've ever head. And I'm by no means a shallow person

I just watched the movie again as a late 20-something. The movie really resonates and makes sense now, unlike when I first watched it as a university student.

This scene is great. And I love their conversation. But it always made me giggle, because the way that their heads are just at the surface of the water, and the way that their bodies look under the water. It looks like big heads with no necks and little legs.

Love this scene I am watching this movie right now on fox but they took out a few scenes from the movie. ; ( one part I remember is Natalie portman swimming away after she asked if he could swim. And she has that cute look that I had to look up.
