What kind of life is that? Do you know? Do you? Because I know. I lived that life. For years I lived it. Without you. And I've never been more miserable. I'd rather fight everyday to keep you near me than have you walk away. I'd rather pay that price, Max. I'm not afraid to pay it. I can't believe you're standing here telling me that you are." ~Layla to Max; TORN Laney McMann
About This Quote

In this quote from the film TORN , Max asks Layla why she is still with him if she has been unhappy. Layla responds by telling him about how much she used to hate being married, and still hates it now. She then tells him that the only reason she doesn't leave Max is because he is a good man and a great father. While Max's life may have been a bit rocky in the past, he has managed to put his bad times behind him and build a family for himself and his daughter. In addition to being a good father, Max has also turned his life around and is now doing very well for himself.
