(00:05:42) "It's a beautiful thing, man, to find somebody like that, I'm saying. Plus, I don't know your wife whatsoever, but she looks like she's awesome. Especially if she got with you and stayed long enough to deal with your ass. She has to be an amazing person, because dealing with people like me and you, I don't feel as easy, you know what I'm saying?" - Profit
(00:09:18) "But yeah, with that, man, I'm not qualified to be anybody's fucking marriage counselor, man. But I have an opinion and I'm going to fucking share it. And a lot of people tend to agree with how I look at certain things, especially when they don't know it's me that's sharing it, you know what I'm saying?" - Profit
(00:22:35) "The interesting point of this conversation is really how much of your own personal happiness that you're trying to get to is tied into your own personal feelings about that person and what you think the world is going to judge you on, right?" - Frenchie
(00:24:28) "That's because the women at my age are carrying three times the baggage that I have." - Frenchie
