The Penitent Magdalen (detail), 1640, Georges de La Tour

❛   The mind of the subject will desperately struggle to create memories where none exist   ❜ ❛   One goes into an experiment knowing one could fail. But one does not undertake an experiment knowing one has failed.   ❜ ❛   At least that’s something we can agree on.   ❜ ❛   It does seem like a dreadful place to be stranded.   ❜ ❛   Heaven, friend. Or as close as we’ll see till Judgment Day.   ❜ ❛   I’m afraid of you.   ❜ ❛   We had a deal! Open this door, right now!   ❜ ❛   So you expect me to shoulder the burden?   ❜ ❛   Just ‘cause the city flies don’t mean it ain’t got its share of fools.   ❜ ❛   Heads? Or tails?   ❜ ❛   I told you…I’m not gonna do it! Now go away.   ❜ ❛   I never find that as satisfying as I’d imagined.   ❜ ❛   I guess you’re expecting me… Is anyone here? Hello?   ❜ ❛   Why are you following me?   ❜ ❛   Violence is not the answer! Blood must not be shed.   ❜ ❛   Violence is not a foregone conclusion.   ❜ ❛   I see every sin that blackens your soul.   ❜ ❛   Not all debts can be repaid.   ❜ ❛   Chin up. There’s always next time.   ❜ ❛   Prophecy is my business, as blood as yours   ❜ ❛   thy crook is bent and thy path is twisted.   ❜ ❛   It’s okay, I’m not going to hurt you. Just sit down, and everything will be fine.   ❜ ❛   Is this some kind of sales pitch? Because I am not interested.   ❜ ❛   I’m a friend. I’ve come to get you out of here.   ❜ ❛   I don’t dance. C'mon, let’s go.   ❜ ❛   This will end in blood. But then again, it always does with you, doesn’t it? It always ends in blood.   ❜ ❛   Oh, can you smell that? I’ve never smelled anything like that before, have you?   ❜ ❛   Give a man a little power, he falls in all kinds of love with himself.   ❜ ❛   Coming here was your idea.   ❜ ❛   that fall into the water did you no favors. I’ll keep an eye out for something that might ease your pain.   ❜ ❛   Knock it off! Will you stop it? Will you stop it! I’m not here to hurt you.   ❜ ❛   If you’re going to be a sore loser, then I shan’t do this again.   ❜ ❛   You’re a roguish type, what does it look like?   ❜ ❛   Bring us the girl and wipe away the debt.   ❜ ❛   Where did you learn to pick locks?   ❜ ❛   Whatever that was, it’s got nothing to do with the job at hand. This job’s getting worse all the time.   ❜ ❛   What interest does a prophet have in a bunch of carnies and carousels?   ❜ ❛   I never even heard of this place before I got here.   ❜ ❛   They frown on gardens in my part of town.   ❜ ❛   I don’t really understand what I just saw back there, but it sure as hell looks like a shortcut to getting us killed.   ❜ ❛   You’ve always been different, haven’t you? You crave no glory.   ❜ ❛   You see? You’re a killer, like it or not.   ❜ ❛   Now that you’re out of yours, you might realize cages have their advantages.   ❜ ❛   I can handle whatever comes along. Trust me.   ❜ ❛   A choice is better than none. No matter what the outcome.   ❜ ❛   What happened back there, that…that’s not the last of it, is it?   ❜ ❛   Maybe you’re the man I remember, maybe not.   ❜ ❛   There’s survival…and then there’s finding pleasure in the act.   ❜ ❛   Look, you seem like a decent enough sort. That said, the less you know about me, the better.   ❜ ❛   I’m leaving and there’s naught you can do to stop me.   ❜ ❛   Me busting you out, what do you think that was? Charity?   ❜ ❛   I got no quarrel with you.   ❜ ❛   Are you afraid of God?   ❜ ❛   I never claimed to be no hero.   ❜ ❛   There’s already a fight. Only question is, which side are you on?❜ ❛   Just hold up for a minute! I’m not angry with you.   ❜ ❛   You killed those people. I can’t believe you did that…they’re all dead… You killed those people.   ❜ ❛   I have no need for one such as you.   ❜ ❛   Don’t get too comfortable with my company. You are a means to an end, no more.   ❜ ❛   You’re either a great hero or the worst of scoundrels, depending on who’s doing the telling.   ❜ ❛   I am a believer, but I am not a fool.   ❜ ❛   What is the most admirable creature on God’s green earth?   ❜ ❛   Does this strike you as good news? It doesn’t strike me as good news.   ❜ ❛   I don’t much care for you… but I must admit, you know your way around a brawl.   ❜ ❛   Now, now, All I ask is that you finish what you started.   ❜ ❛   Son, I do say I like the cut of your chin.   ❜ ❛   You know, when your name was first passed to me, I wasn’t quite sure you were the man for the job.   ❜ ❛   What could people have done to deserve to be locked up in a place like this?   ❜ ❛   You’re a lion. But you can’t blame me for looking after my own interests, can you?   ❜ ❛   Lions walk with lions, not hyenas.   ❜ ❛   I killed them. They were dead.   ❜ ❛   You must think me some sort of…freak. I must seem ridiculous. ❜ ❛   Like all bastards, we serve it best by smothering it in its crib.   ❜ ❛   Let me tell you about sin.   ❜ ❛   Are you going to just sit there?   ❜ ❛   the biggest sin of all, the mother of all sins, is that we sit back and take it.   ❜ ❛   In this world, you were a martyr.   ❜ ❛   These folk need a better class of hero.   ❜ ❛   This isn’t our responsibility - none of it.   ❜ ❛   Why, that sort of ambition will serve you well.   ❜ ❛   I had a role in this catastrophe, if you want to pretend we’re innocents in this, then that’s your prerogative.   ❜ ❛   I saw you die. Saw it with my own eyes.   ❜ ❛   I know how this feels. Listen, I think you should talk to me.   ❜ ❛   How do you wash away the things that you’ve done?   ❜ ❛   Once people get their blood up, it ain’t easy to settle it down again.   ❜ ❛   This prophecy business… You don’t think anyone can really see the future, do you?   ❜ ❛   These are dire times and I could ever so use your aid.   ❜ ❛   That is an oath you cannot keep.   ❜ ❛   If you were to take me back…that’s death. Or something so like it, I cannot tell the difference. ❜ ❛   A mother who abandons their child doesn’t draw a lot of sympathy in my book.   ❜ ❛   You just got dealt a bad hand. ❜ ❛   The only difference between past and present is semantics.   ❜ ❛   If we could perceive time as it truly was… what reason would grammar professors have to get out of bed?   ❜ ❛   You couldn’t have known this would happen.   ❜ ❛   One doesn’t expect a picture of one’s corpse to come across so lifelessly.   ❜ ❛   Listen to me. what you’ve been through… ain’t nobody in the world deserves that.   ❜ ❛   We are gettin’ outta here, you got it? And you’re never gonna have to look back.   ❜ ❛   Child! Child! You are the lie that spewed from my womb. You are the lie, the lie, the lie.   ❜ ❛   Some men dream of money, some men dream of love. My father dreamt of a flood of fire.   ❜ ❛   I can see all that would be, might be and must not be.   ❜ ❛   Child, would you like to pray with me?   ❜ ❛   All I ever wanted is to see you live up to your potential.   ❜ ❛   Humanity wrote a bad check, and the flood was the only way to settle the accounts.   ❜ ❛   You’ll need to eat sooner or later. If you hold out, you’ll just starve to death.   ❜ ❛   God put his faith in men once, too. It seems that we have something in common: disappointment.   ❜ ❛   Why do you ask ‘what’ when the delicious question is ‘when?’   ❜ ❛   All I can do is watch as what I set in motion slides into its terminal stage.   ❜ ❛   Time rots everything, even hope.   ❜ ❛   We’re going to cure you.   ❜ ❛   When the body cries out, the spirit listens.   ❜ ❛   Do you hear that screaming? That is the sound of your interference.   ❜ ❛   Is this where you start moralizing? You forget, I know you.   ❜ ❛   What are you going to do to stop me?❜ ❛   You struggle against prophecy, like a stone loosed from a sling.   ❜ ❛   I don’t understand. I heard you screaming, I was… I was coming to get you.   ❜ ❛   Do you think…it’s possible to redeem the kind of things that we’ve done?   ❜ ❛   We’re doing this together, or I’m doing it alone. Either way, I need to know the thing’s been done.   ❜ ❛   Rejoice! Rejoice! Death has no sting.   ❜ ❛   I may be the one who strikes you down, but you’ve always had a knack for self-destruction. Who’s to say you won’t beat me to the punch?   ❜ ❛   Some sins can’t be forgiven.❜ ❛   I’m not going to let you kill him.   ❜ ❛   I won’t abandon you.   ❜ ❛   You come to wipe your slate clean, but time will walk backwards before you find redemption.  ❜ ❛   Everything I’ve done…I’ve done to keep you safe.   ❜ ❛   You killed him. What did he mean? Huh? You tell me, what did he mean?   ❜ ❛   Just drop me off if you want to. This isn’t your problem.   ❜ ❛   I’m a fool. I’ve sent mighty armies to stop you; I’ve rained fire on you from above.   ❜ ❛   Will you do this for me, just…just this one last thing? Please…   ❜ ❛   You thought the streets were paved with gold, but they were paved with blood, sweat and tears.   ❜ ❛   Look at that. Thousands of doors…opening all at once. My god, they’re beautiful.   ❜ ❛   Baptism is the rebirth of the spirit…but sometimes the mind gets in the way.   ❜ ❛   There are a million million worlds. All different and all similar. Constants and variables.   ❜ ❛   We swim in different oceans but land on the same shore.   ❜ ❛   Are you ready to have your past erased? Are you ready to have your sins cleansed? Are you ready to be born again?   ❜ ❛   I can see all the doors, and what’s behind all the doors.   ❜ ❛   Hey, the deal is off, you hear me? The deal is off!   ❜ ❛   You think a dunk in the river’s gonna change the things that I’ve done?   ❜ ❛   If I don’t get caught, it’s going to be a very long time before we see each other.   ❜ ❛   Do you hate your wickedness?   ❜ ❛   Are we worth saving if we will not save ourselves?   ❜
