Bad-ass, but not instrumentally rational. I'm going to be polite to the police chief's (or mafia boss', etc.) son, even if the boy is rather a jerk. (Yes, I know it's possible to be polite even when forming a poor judgement, but the context was "Doesn't it matter")
Very good point.
Once again, here's the new thread for posting quotes, with the usual rules:
Please post all quotes separately, so that they can be voted up/down separately. (If they are strongly related, reply to your own comments. If strongly ordered, then go ahead and post them together.)
