Quotes 

• Joseph : You think when you reach a certain age things will start making sense, and you find out that you are just as lost as you were before. I suppose that's what damnation is. The pieces of your life never to come together, just splashed out there.

• Joseph : Remember the story I used to tell you when you were a boy - about a young prince. A knight, sent by his father, the King of the East, west into Egypt - to find a pearl. A pearl from the depths of the sea. But when the prince arrived, the people poured him a cup that took away his memory. He forgot he was the son of the king. Forgot about the pearl - and fell into a deep sleep. The king didn't forget his son. He continued to send word, messengers, guides. But the prince - slept on.

• Joseph : My son - you are just like I am. Can't figure your life out? Can't put the pieces together? Just like me. A pilgrim on this earth. A stranger. Fragments. Pieces - of a man.

• Joseph : You live in exile. Stranger in a strange land. A Pilgrim, A knight. Find your way - from darkness - to light.

• Joseph : Remember. The pearl. Whispering. Beckoning. Each man, each woman. A guide. A God.

• Joseph : So much I was given. So much I left behind.
