• [Pacey has just won a first place trophy for catching a large blue marlin fish] 

  Sheriff John Witter : Well, be proud of yourself. Enjoy this moment. A loser like you probably won't have many more like it.

  [Sheriff Witter walks off as Pacey angrily sits and Dawson walks over having heard everything] 

  Pacey Witter : [to Dawson]  Do you have any idea how many times I set myself for that line, over and over and over again? I just can't stop myself from just trying to get one qualified, "good job, son", out of that bastard. He must be right. I really must be a simpleton.

  Dawson Leery : I know it's not the same, but there are other people in your life who recognize and respect your talent and intelligence. One of them is standing right in front of you. The other one is probably sitting in her bedroom having a perky coronary in anticipation from your return from sea.

• Pacey Witter : This sucks, Dad.

  Sheriff John Witter : Lots of things in life suck, Pacey! And it's my job to prepare you for that inevitability.
