[Nora]: (explaining the concepts of Tikkum Olam)"Basically, it says that the world has been broken into pieces. All this chaos, all this discord. And our job - everyones job - is to try and put the pieces back together. To make things whole again."
[Nick] :"And you believe that?"
[Nora]: "I guess I do. I mean, I don't know how the world broke. And I don't know if there’s a God who can help us fix it. But the fact that the world is broken - I absolutely believe that. Just look around us. Every minute - every single second - there are a million things you could be thinking about. A million things you could be worrying about. Our world - don't you just feel we're becoming more and more fragmented? I used to think that when I got older, the world would make so much more sense. But you know what? The older I get, the more confusing it is to me. The more complicated it is. Harder. You'd think we'd be getting better at it. But there's just more and more chaos. The pieces - they're everywhere. And nobody knows what to do about it. I find myself grasping, Nick. You know that feeling. That feeling when you just want the right thing to fall into the right place, not only because it's right, but because it will mean that such a thing is still possible? I want to believe in that."
[Nick]: "Maybe we're the pieces"
[Nora]: "What?"
[Nick]: "Maybe thats it. With what you were talking about before. The world being broken. Maybe it isn't that we're supposed to find the pieces and put them back together. Maybe we're the pieces. Maybe what we're supposed to do is come together. That's how we stop the breaking."
I'm in need of this movie right now.
