Charles Rahi Chun: Priest

Quotes 

• Priest : You've been warming this bench for the past two hours. Look, I was about to step out for my fantasy football draft, but I can't leave you here looking like this. House rules. So, a penny for your thoughts?

  Garcia Flynn : Might make you a millionaire, Father.

  Priest : The rectory could use an upgrade.

• Garcia Flynn : My wife was the practicing Catholic. She'd drag me to mass once a month like clockwork. I never really took it seriously myself.

  Priest : Neither did I, for the longest time.

  Garcia Flynn : I have a job. In the beginning, I thought it was important, that it could help a lot of people, hopefully even bring my wife back to me. But no matter what I do, nothing gets better. If anything, it only gets worse.

  Priest : I get it, but when times are tough, you just got to trust that God has a plan.

  Garcia Flynn : What if you could change that plan?

  Priest : I don't follow.

  Garcia Flynn : What if you could, uh... make a person go left instead of right, backward instead of forward? What if you had the power to change the course of history? Does that mean, uh... nothing's meant to be? Does that mean God's not there? Would He stop me?

  Priest : What are you asking?

  Garcia Flynn : I'm asking for absolution.
