《美国美人》经典台词有：
Lester Burnham: Remember those posters that said, Today is the first day of the rest of your life? Well, that's true with every day except one: the day that you die.
莱斯特：记得那些海报上说过，每一天都是你一生的开始?是呀，只有一天不是，你死的那一天。
Lester Burnham: No, Brad; I'm just an ordinary guy who has nothing left to lose.
莱斯特：不，布拉德，我只是个没什么可失去的普通人。
Lester Burnham: And your mother seems to prefer I go through life like a fucking prisoner while she keeps my dick in a mason jar under the sink.
莱斯特：你的母亲似乎更喜欢我像囚徒般生活，把我男人的本性彻底封存起来。
Carolyn Burnham: Don't you mess with me, mister, or I'll divorce you so fast it'll make your head spin!
卡罗琳：别折磨我了，先生，否则我会尽快和你离婚!
Lester Burnham: On what grounds? I'm not a drunk, I don't fuck other women, I've never hit you, I don't mistreat you... I don't even try to touch you since you've made it so abundantly clear how unnecessary you consider me to be! But I did support you when you got your license, and some people might think that entitles me to half of what's yours. So, turn off the light when you come to bed!
莱斯特：因为什么?我不酗酒，我不上别的女人，我不打你，我不虐待你自从你认为我无关紧要开始，我甚至没碰过你!在你拿到执照时我支持你，一些人可能认为我该和你平分家产。所以，上床前把灯关上!
