The UnMiracle (2017)

Daniel Fissmer: Mike Phillips

Quotes 

• Mike : Hey, Dan, if you, uh... if you need to wake me up in the mornin', don't wake me with your hand. Use a... use a stick or something, all right?, 'cause most times I wake up, I wake up swinging. All right, little bro?

• Officer Robert Mackenzie : [finding Mike in a bad way]  Is there someone I could call to come over and be with you?

  Mike : [coyly]  How 'bout some strippers?

  Officer Robert Mackenzie : Uh, how 'bout your wife?

• Mike : There's nothin' worse than a girl who can't hold her liquor.

• Mike : Well, Danny, a Marine lives by a certain code, a... a code of integrity, and it can't be compromised.

  Daniel : Whoa...

  Mike : It means, Daniel, doing the right thing regardless of ever you're gonna get caught or not.

  Daniel : That's pretty righteous stuff, but it's a good thing you're not a Marine anymore, eh?

  Mike : You're in it for life, brother. No such thing as an ex-Marine. Honor. Courage. Commitment. Yeah, courage. It is... the willingness to take a stand regardless of adverse consequences. It's... the will to heed the inner conscience, and the will to do what is right regardless of the conduct of others. It's not enough to know what to do. You have to do it. Courage is the mastery of fear and to always do what is right, even in the face of death. You have to follow a higher path that... that normal people are too weak or too afraid to follow.

• Daniel : With faith, a-anything is possible?

  Mike : No, but at least you're not nothin'.

• Mike : If I ever catch you hanging around my little brother Danny - who's in high school - I'm gonna show you firsthand how brutal the apex predator really can be.
