"I think we did all we could."

"I know, but I hate to give up.  It's so unfair."

"Life isn't fair."

"But this little life was so, how can I say it, special."

"All life is special."

"Yeah I know."

"Look, you gave it your best."

"My best wasn't good enough."

"Don't beat yourself up.  You know we can win them all."

"But I tried so hard.  We tried so hard.  What's Dixie gonna say?"

"Dixie will understand."

"That's being generous, partner."

"She may not give you another plant, but she'll understand."

He took the plant and threw it away.
