- Hello 2
- Why do you live in prison?
- Hello 1
- Let's talk about something else :)
- Exactly my thoughts.
- This movie is great, riveting even
- Travis says this in a voiceover early in the second half of the movie. The scene takes place after the unnamed passenger talks about shooting his wife and directly after Travis accidentally hits Iris with his cab, and just before he goes to buy his guns. The difference between this quotation and the previous diary quotation, concerning "morbid self-attention," is stark, even though both entries are about loneliness. In the first, Travis knows he is lonely but strives to fit into society, while here he fashions himself as a chosen person, a man who has been predestined to be lonely as part of a special assignment from God. He will no longer try to fit in with the rest of the world, so he fashions himself not only as an outsider but as a vigilante. Travis believes that his subsequent violent actions, including the attempted assassination of Palantine and the final bloodbath, are heroic, suggesting that "morbid self-attention" has become his main motivation.
