“- Alvin Straight: You don't think about getting old when you're young... you shouldn't.
- Steve: There must be something good about gettin' old.
- Alvin Straight: Well, I can't imagine anything good about being blind and lame at the same time but, still at my age, I've seen about all that life has to dish out. I know to separate the wheat from the chaff, and let the small stuff fall away.”
