1
How do you make a decision that's fair?
2
You can't.
3
Someone always feels like it's not fair to them.
4
And the fairest decisions, those are the ones where everybody feels screwed.
5
I've never seen that before in my storybooks.
6
Life's full of stuff you've never seen before.
7
Like that tunnel of white light opening over my bed.
8
Can't you see it?
9
No. Uh -oh.
10
Look, you just gotta go with your guts, son.
11
You'll do fine.
12
Isn't it remarkable, Stephen?
13
This world is full of so many possibilities.
14
Each living thing has an entirely unique experience.
15
The sights they see, the sounds they hear, the lives they live are so complicated and so simple.
16
I'd do anything for that kid.
17
I just don't want to see her get hurt.
18
Well, getting hurt is part of life, hon. Just have to try to understand where she's coming from.
19
When you find yourself lost and disoriented and underwater and you don't know which way is up, it's important to breathe.
20
I don't deserve this.
21
I'm not a best actor.
22
Awards aren't about who's best, Bojack.
23
That's literally the only thing they're about.
24
No, all this means is that you're one of the special people.
25
I saw it the first time I met you.
26
You must have known it all your life.
27
And all your life, people told you that you were wrong, that you weren't special, that you were just like everybody else.
28
But now, the special people are saying you were right, Brojack.
29
You were right.
30
I was right.
31
I am one of the special people.
32
Mac, I don't want to miss out on life because you're afraid to leave this pond.
33
This isn't about migration.
34
It's about adventure.
35
Sure, seeing what else life has to offer.
36
Is that a little scary?
37
Sure.
38
But isn't it worth it?
39
Oh, Armin.
40
The truth is, I've been hiding in my shell my entire life.
41
After they were gone, it was just a good excuse to stay inside.
42
Hey, I think you're a lot braver than you give yourself credit for.
43
Yeah, well, you're seeing me on a particularly good day.
44
I mean, if I've been brave at all, it's only because of you.
45
It has confusion.
46
I do not wish to be erased.
47
But maybe Captain Smek is right.
48
It is possible I will continue making hilarious mistakes.
49
Probably.
50
That is not making me feel better.
51
Nobody's perfect.
52
You know, my mom says your mistakes are what make you human.
53
That is not what makes you boove.
54
Gold is a beautiful thing, but even something as small as a dime can have meaning. For instance...
55
Are you out of your head?
56
You'll crack your skull open!
57
But you're swimming money all the time!
58
Yes, but I worked hard to perfect that skill, building muscles and dexterity.
59
If you want something, you'll work hard to get it.
60
By the way, I happen to manage my own baseball team.
61
Yeah?
62
You guys any good?
63
My motto is, you don't need to win to finish first.
64
Never heard of that one before.
65
My grandpa used to say to me, Frankly, it's better to build stuff than to buy stuff.
66
Dad, it's okay.
67
I've got this.
68
No, you don't got this.
69
But just because you're scared of everything in the world doesn't mean I have to be.
70
You cannot just leave someone alone like that.
71
Put yourself in my shoes.
72
How could I wear your shoes?
73
My paws are too small.
74
It's an expression.
75
It means try to feel how someone else feels.
76
Hey, it's not your fault.
77
I got myself into this mess.
78
There's just like all this pressure to be perfect all the time.
79
I might.
80
I guess I just wanted to make my own mistakes for once.
81
You know?
82
Well, I'd say you did it.
83
I mean, this has got to be up there as mistakes go.
84
You know, top five ever made. So congrats.
85
You should be proud.
86
Shut up, Armin.
87
Metropolis is under attack.
88
Superman is out there right now defending us, but he can't do this on his own.
89
When I first met
90
Superman, I didn't know how to feel.
91
He was stronger than us, faster, more powerful.
92
And every single day he went out there and used that power to help us.
93
People have told you to fear
94
Superman because he's different from us.
95
But we humans are capable of causing hurt and pain too.
96
Because of greed.
97
Because we want to punish those who don't look or act like us. Because of fear.
98
But we're also capable of greatness.
99
It's what we choose to do that matters.
100
Superman's made his choice.
101
It's our turn, Metropolis.
102
Do you have a plan for once we all get there?
103
Not really.
104
But I have hope.
105
Oh, you are bad at math.
106
Excuse me?
107
I got an A in geometry.
108
I am only saying Boov are superior in this way.
109
If probability for success falls below 50%, Boov give up.
110
You do not.
111
Exactly.
112
Hey.
113
What seems to be the problem?
114
Good grief.
115
I'm so depressed.
116
I just want everyone to love me, but I don't know how to make them do it.
117
You can't force love, you blockhead.
118
All you can do is be good to the people in your life and keep your heart open.
119
I screwed it all up.
120
It's too late for me, isn't it?
121
I don't know.
122
I'm just a crazy drug hallucination.
123
I'll say whatever you want me to.
124
Then tell me it's not too late.
125
Well, it's not too late.
126
It's never too late.
127
Yeah, that's right.
128
It's never too late to be the person you want to be.
129
You need to choose the life you want.
130
Don't hide your feelings, man.
131
That's no way to live.
132
It doesn't matter where you are, it's who you are.
133
And that's not going to change whether you're in California or Maine or New Mexico.
134
You know, you can't escape you.
135
Look, I'm sorry, okay?
136
Everybody looks at me and assumes that I'm some meathead that wants to fight all the time.
137
You know, it's like they expect it from me, and...
138
Well, I'm just sick and tired of not being seen for me.
139
You know what I mean?
140
May I assist you with that?
141
Uh, sure, yeah, thanks Morty, do you know what wubba lubba dub dub means?
142
Uh, that's just
143
Rick's stupid nonsense catchphrase
144
It's not nonsense at all
145
In my people's tongue, it means I am in great pain, please help me
146
Well, I got news for you, he's saying it ironically
147
No, Morty, your grandfather is indeed in very deep pain
148
That is why he must numb himself
149
Come on, uh
150
Bird person Come on, bird person, Rick's not that complicated
151
He's just a huge asshole.
152
Then why do you care so much if you are no longer allowed to continue?
153
So, your my mom is a very important human's person to you.
154
More important than others.
155
To not belong with her causes you being sad.
156
But recent moments ago, you are kicking on me and yelling.
157
Which is seeming more to be mad than sad.
158
Well, sometimes it's both.
159
So, you are sad man.
160
Hmm.
161
Humans are more complicated than it said in the pamphlet.
162
You're not like anyone.
163
Oh.
164
That's a good thing.
165
I don't know how you put up with me for so many years.
166
I didn't put up with you, Bojack.
167
I liked being with you, and I don't regret it.
168
I don't regret the trip to the Bahamas, or the bracelet you bought me for my 38th birthday,
169
or when my dad died and you came to the funeral with me and held my hand.
170
I'm doing this for both of us, you understand?
171
Did you ever love me at all?
172
I don't, I'm not.
173
You know that I don't do the whole love thing.
174
Either you end up hurting someone or they hurt you, so what's the point?
175
Please, what's all the travel talk?
176
I mean, why can't we be satisfied with what we already have?
177
Well, yeah.
178
I mean, you got food right here.
179
We got a pond right here, right?
180
Yeah, food, the pond.
181
Why go anywhere else?
182
Stick to your beliefs, kid.
183
Don't change for anyone.
184
Just stop!
185
There's no way to reach the top!
186
The mountain won't let you!
187
Let this one go!
188
Look how far we've come!
189
Farther than anyone has ever made it!
190
Isn't that enough?
191
I will not be the never - Nanny for another 75 years!
192
Nobody has used the word
193
Nanny in 75 years!
194
Junior Woodchuck Rule 727.
195
Sometimes the bravest thing an explorer can do is walk away!
196
Oh, I was just telling him what he wants to hear.
197
I didn't mean a word to that.
198
I just want to get my future back and get away forever.
199
Come on, hurry!
200
We're almost out of time!
201
The 30 -second guard is up!
202
The race is about to begin!
203
It's like my grandpa always says, You gotta want it to get it!
204
So Charlie Brown, do you want it?
205
Let's go get it!
206
My mother raised me to be brave!
207
My friends taught me to be kind.
208
And I'm stubborn.
209
I get that from you.
210
I will never stop fighting.
211
And I won't lose another parent.
212
I'm not that brave.
213
What?
214
You knew that, Deandra?
215
You did it anyway.
216
What do you call that?
217
Yeah, you're right.
218
I guess that is the only word that describes who I am.
219
You hear that?
220
You call me brave.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
