Quote #10
Suzanne works part-time. She hates her father. She hates herself for never fighting. She regrets everything. "But I love Melinda," she says. "She's the one piece of beauty among all this ugly." Suzanne sits next to her daughter and catches me in the mirror. "She makes me worth it, you know?" (4.9.23)
Once Ed stops being so self-centered, he figures out that there are regrets all around him. Take his buddy Marv and the way he handled Suzanne getting pregnant. Ed helps out his buddy before it's too late, but he also learns a valuable lesson about life: just because something didn't turn out the way you planned, doesn't mean it's all bad or it's too late to start trying.
