WAKING LIFE -- ILLUSTRATED SCREENPLAY & SCREENCAP GALLERY |

[Woman] Well, he's talking about like, say, a baby picture. So you pick up this picture, this two-dimensional image, and you say, "That's me." Well, to connect this baby and this weird little image with yourself living and breathing in the present, you have to make up a story like, "This was me when I was a year old, and then later I had long hair, and then we moved to Riverdale, and now here I am." So it takes a story that's actually a fiction to make you and the baby in the picture identical, to create your identity.
[Woman] And the funny thing is our cells are completely regenerating every seven years.
We've already become completely different people several times over.
And yet, we always remain quintessentially ourselves. Hmm.
