Lester Burnham: Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go fuck himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.
莱斯特：珍妮，今天我辞职了。我告诉我的老板自己玩去吧，而且我还勒索了他6万美元。给我芦笋。
Carolyn Burnham: Your father seems to think this type of behavior is something to be proud of.
卡罗琳：你的父亲似乎认为这种行为值得自豪。
Lester Burnham: And your mother seems to prefer I go through life like a fucking prisoner while she keeps my dick in a mason jar under the sink.
莱斯特：你的母亲似乎更喜欢我像囚徒般生活，把我男人的本性彻底封存起来。
Carolyn Burnham: How dare you speak to me that way in front of her. And I marvel that you can be so contemptuous of me, on the same day that you LOSE your job.
卡罗琳：你怎么敢在女儿面前这么和我说话。我太吃惊你能如此轻蔑我，而且是在失业的当天。
Lester Burnham: Lose it? I didn't lose it. It's not like, "Whoops! Where'd my job go?" I QUIT.
莱斯特：失业？我没失业，这可不像，"哎呦！我的工作呢？"我是辞职。
Carolyn Burnham: Don't you mess with me, mister, or I'll divorce you so fast it'll make your head spin!
卡罗琳：别折磨我了，先生，否则我会尽快和你离婚！
Lester Burnham: On what grounds? I'm not a drunk, I don't fuck other women, I've never hit you, I don't mistreat you... I don't even try to touch you since you've made it so abundantly clear how unnecessary you consider me to be! But I did support you when you got your license, and some people might think that entitles me to half of what's yours. So, turn off the light when you come to bed!
莱斯特：因为什么？我不酗酒，我不上别的女人，我不打你，我不虐待你……自从你认为我无关紧要开始，我甚至没碰过你！在你拿到执照时我支持你，一些人可能认为我该和你平分家产。所以，上床前把灯关上！
