"I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."

Taunting the French by singing about Ulrich

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
- Marianne Williamson

"Just a dog? Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he's just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That's like saying, 'He can't climb that mountain, he's just a man', or 'That's not a diamond, it's just a rock.' Just. "

You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for you kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I miss the idea of it. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place."

"I have just come to a realization! This scroll by Broken Sword contains no secrets of his swordsmanship. What this reveals is his highest ideal. In the first state, man and sword become one and each other. Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon. In the next stage, the sword resides not in the hand but in the heart. Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces. But the ultimate ideal is when the sword disappears altogether. The warrior embraces all around him. The desire to kill no longer exists. Only peace remains."
- King of Qin

"Trust me, it's paradise. This is where the hungry come to feed. From mine it's a generation that's circles the globe and searches something we haven't tried before. So never refuse an invitation, never resist the unfamiliar, never fail to be polite and never outstay the welcome. Just keep your mind open and suck in the experience. And if it hurts, you know what? It's probably worth it."
- Richard
The Beach (2000)

"It's a schemer who put you where you are. You were a schemer. You had plans. Look where it got you. I just did what I do best-I took your plan and turned it on itself. Look what I have done to this city with a few drums of gas and a couple bullets. Nobody panics when the expected people get killed. Nobody panics when things go according to plan, even if the plans are horrifying. If I tell the press that tomorrow a gangbanger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will get blown up, nobody panics. But when I say one little old mayor will die, everyone loses their minds! Introduce a little anarchy, you upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I am an agent of chaos. And you know the thing about chaos, Harvey? It's fair."

Peter Appleton: "I've never been a man of great conviction. I never saw the percentage in it. And quite frankly, I suppose, I lack the courage. See, I'm not like Luke Trimble. He had the market cornered on those things. I never met the guy, but I like I've gotten to know him. The thing is, I can't help wondering what he'd say if he we're standing here right now. You know, I think he'd probably tell you...

"The America represented in this room is not the America he died defending. I think he'd tell you your America is bitter and cruel and small. I know, for a fact, his America was big. Bigger than you can imagine! With a wide-open heart! Where every person has a voice! Even if you don't like what they have to say. If he were here, I wonder how you'd respond...if you could explain to him what happened to his America....

"The Fifth Amendment is out of the question. But there is another Amendment I'd like to invoke. I wonder if anyone here is familiar with it. 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting free exercise thereof, or abridging freedom of speech, or of the press, or of the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for a redress of grievances.' It's the First Amendment. It's everything we're about, if only we'd live up to it. It's part of the contract every citizen has here. Even though the Constitution and Bill of Rights are just pieces of paper with signatures on them, they're the only contracts we have that are most definitely not subject to renegotiation. Not by anyone...ever.

"Too many people have paid for this contract in blood. [Holds out Luke Trible's Medal of Honor.] People like Luke Trimble...and all the sons of Lawson, California."

Stan Keller: [Watching Peter on TV] "Damn right....And they deserve better than this....All you boys do."

[carves V into wall]
"The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

He figures if two babies can hammer me into a Psycho ward, what will I do with this ? He is so stupid. He's so stupid that he thinks he pulled me through the breakdown when it was Christy. Always.
