Smallville Quote
Lucas: [to Clark] So, you and Lex seem close.
Pete: What, are you kidding? They're like brothers.
Clark: So, Lucas, where did you grow up?
Lucas: All over.
Pete: Must be kind of weird not knowing your mom or your dad.
Lucas: No, not really. Parents always try to make you little versions of them selves. When you grow up without those constraints, you're allowed to become your own person.
Clark: It's an interesting theory. I don't think I buy it, though.
Lucas: All right. Let's take you and Lex, for example. If he were raised by your parents and you were raised by Lionel, you wouldn't grow up to be different people? Trust me, you'd be rich and miserable, and he'd be wearing flannel. But if you were left totally alone, abandoned by your parents, how do you think you'd turn out?
