Chris Stevens
Chris Stevens (John Corbett) is Cicely's resident K-BEAR DJ and philosopher. He sees the world in a peculiar way and is always analyzing this and that. He is an ex-con and seemingly irresistable to a whole
host of women. Chris seems a bit Jesus like and is always in a state of awe and wonder about
the world around him.
Classic Quotes"Maurice J. Minnifield our generous host, friend and employer. I'm sure I join everyone here in saying thankyou for these very fine, fine eats and drinks. You are a real American. You are an ex-marine and astronaut. You are America. You are rich. You are rapacious. You are progress without a conscience paving everything in its path. You are 5% of the Earth's population yet consuming 25% of the Earth's natural resources. You pay a lot of taxes. You do a lot of charity work. Most of it's tax deductible but your heart is in the right place. One things for certain chief you have implacable taste in the booze.""This is what it's all about Maggie. Destruction and creation. The scarred battlefield of life. Up from the ashed rises the phoenix. From the skin rises a new snake." "Thankyou Maurice for playing apollo to my dionysian in arts cartesian dialectic." "It's time for us to say av revoir to Pierre. Where did he come from, where is he going ? I guess we could all ask the same questions of ourselves. I'm gonna like a fellow Frenchman have the last words. When from a long distant past nothing persists. After the people are dead. After things are broken and scattered still alone. More persistant, more faithful. The smell and taste of things remain poised a long, long time. Like souls ready to remind us. Waiting hoping for their moment amid the ruins of all the rest and bear unfaltering in the tiny almost impalpable drop of their essence, the vast structure of recollection." "There's a dark side to each and every human soul. We want to be Obi-Wan Kenobi, and for the most part we are, but there's a little Darth Vadar in all of us. Because the thing is, this ain't no either or proposition. Because we talking about dialectics, the good and the bad merging into us. You know, you can run but you can't hide. My experience, face the darkness, stare it down and own it. It's like brother Nietzsche says, being human is a complicated gig, so give that old dark night of the soul a hug and howl the eternal yes." "For that instant, he looked like his own paddle. There was a song in his heart. It crept to his lips but only the water and the wind could hear. You little traveler, you made the journey, the long journey. You now know things I have yet to know, you little traveler. You were given a name a true name in my father's lodge. Good medicine, little traveler. You are truly a paddle person." |
