Every day, all day, my job... my whole job is to... understand people well enough so that I know how to lie to them, so I can sell them things they don't really want. And when you study people like that, when you really see the way they treat each other, well... You're no dummy. You see what they do, and they do it without even thinking about it. Fuck. I did it to you and your dad, and I don't even really know why. We fuck each other over all the time, without even realizing it. We fuck every living thing on this planet over and think it'll be fine because we use paper straws and order the free range chicken. And the sick thing is, I think deep down we know we're not fooling anyone. I think we know we're living a lie.

- I always thought of myself as a sophisticated man. Someone who had seen the world for what it was. But I have never seen anything like this. So now, I wonder if that thing I always thought about myself was a delusion. I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. - You dig deep enough, it's probably all a delusion. I mean, take your line of work, for example. Imaginary numbers, moving around imaginary money, leading to imaginary success.
