Smallville Quote
Lex: I found a man. He said something besides the meteors came down that day.
Clark: Like what?
Lex: A ship.
Clark: And you believe him?
Lex: I listened. Chances are he's just another crackpot, but I'd be remiss if I didn't check it out.
Clark: And when the next story comes up, you'll be sure to check that one out too. When are you going to be able to put your past behind you?
Lex: Take a look at the stars, Clark. Some of them have been extinguished for thousands of years, but their light is only reaching us now. The past is always influencing the present. I can't change that. All I can do is try to understand it.
