DUNE: PART TWO (2024) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ This world is beyond cruelty. ❜
❛ Never stand with your back towards the open. How many times do I have to tell you that, huh? ❜
❛ Don’t worry. I’m taking you somewhere they will never find us. ❜
❛ You fought well… once you woke up. ❜
❛ He thinks you’re spies. ❜
❛ Your faith is playing tricks on you. ❜
❛ I’m ready to pledge my life for him. ❜
❛ Your father didn’t believe in revenge. ❜
❛ Don’t mock him. He deserves our respect. He’s a good fighter. ❜
❛ Never give your water away, not even for the dead. ❜
❛ It’s an honor, isn’t it? I think you should feel honored. ❜
❛ Well, it was a choice between this or death, so, you know, forgive me if I’m not flattered. ❜
❛ You want to control people, you tell them a messiah will come. Then they’ll wait for centuries. ❜
❛ That was no miracle! ❜
❛ I’m not here to lead. I’m here to learn your ways. Let me fight beside you. That’s all I’m asking. ❜
❛ You will see! The beauty and the horror! ❜
❛ Oh! Don’t ever, ever listen to the jinn. ❜
❛ He’s not like the other strangers. He’s sincere. ❜
❛ You know, I’m the only one who believes you’re gonna make it until summer? Everyone else thinks you won’t make it two weeks. ❜
❛ What? Stop looking at me like that. ❜
❛ We must convert the non-believers one by one. We need to start with the weaker ones. The vulnerable ones. The ones who fear us. ❜
❛ Who taught you to fight like that? ❜
❛ We can stop them together, bury them in the sand where they belong. ❜
❛ Then I’ll die, maybe you will too. But the others will keep going. And they won’t stop. ❜
❛ Where you’re from, does water really fall from the sky? ❜
❛ Your blood comes from Dukes and Great Houses. We don’t have that here. Here, we’re equal, men and women alike. What we do, we do for the benefit of all. ❜
❛ Well, I’d very much like to be equal to you. ❜
❛ It’s been a while since you’ve had one of those nightmares. Tell me, what was it about? ❜
❛ You’ve been exposed to spice for a long time. It can create weird dreams. ❜
❛ Don’t try to impress anyone. You are brave. We all know that. Be simple. Be direct. Nothing fancy. ❜
❛ I won’t shame you. I understand. ❜
❛ The way they look at you. They worship you now. ❜
❛ I’m no messiah. ❜
❛ She says you’re blinded by love, and she reminds you that you must reserve your hand for the most strategic alliance. ❜
❛ Do you not think I also feel the weight of the prophecy? ❜
❛ They deserve to be led by one of their own. ❜
❛ Repression only makes a religion flourish. ❜
❛ You underestimate the power of faith. ❜
❛ Prophets get stronger when they die. ❜
❛ You’d be a formidable empress. ❜
❛ Then what hope is there? ❜
❛ Hope? We don’t hope, we plan. ❜
❛ The question is, can we control him? And I intend to find out. ❜
❛ I won’t die like a fool. Kill me now. ❜
❛ No fear. These fights are all for show. ❜
❛ Show me who you are. ❜
❛ This morning you were a playboy, feared and envied, but tonight you’re a hero. ❜
❛ You’re following me. ❜
❛ You’re not allowed in this section. How did you get past the guards? ❜
❛ I remember now. I dreamed about you last night. ❜
❛ Come to me. Kneel. ❜
❛ I recognized your footsteps, old man. ❜
❛ When our resources are limited…fear is all we have. ❜
❛ Well, what are you waiting for? With thousands of these guys, you could take control of the entire planet. ❜
❛ They used to be friends. Now they’re followers. ❜
❛ You have the power to avenge your father, and you’re afraid to use it? ❜
❛ I can foresee things. If I go South, all my visions lead to horror. ❜
❛ Billions of corpses scattered across the galaxy. All dying because of me. ❜
❛ No need to be a prophet to see what’s ahead. ❜
❛ Your path leads to war. You know that. ❜
❛ So, war is coming. What will you do when you feel its breath upon your neck? ❜
❛ He who can destroy a thing has the real control of it. ❜
❛ You promised me you didn’t want power. ❜
❛ No matter what I do, you still don’t trust me. ❜
❛ My allegiance is to you. I’m doing this for all of us. Do you believe me? ❜
❛ It’s right under everybody’s noses. Not clever. ❜
❛ That’s the idea. Nobody would ever look in there because it’s obvious. ❜
❛ Nothing can live there without faith. ❜
❛ I want to go on the ground. Prepare my troops. ❜
❛ You humiliated our family. You humiliated me. ❜
❛ Embarrass our family one more time… it will be the last. ❜
❛ It is a good time to cross blades with me. I am weak. I am an easy kill. ❜
❛ I don’t care what you believe. I believe. ❜
❛ I’ll stay behind and cover your retreat. ❜
❛ You see only fragments. You cannot see the future without seeing the past. ❜
❛ To unlock your mind, you need to drink the Water of Life… and you will see everything. ❜
❛ A good hunter always climbs the highest dune before his hunt. He needs to see… as far as he can see. ❜
❛ The world has made choices for us. ❜
❛ You will never lose me. Not as long as you stay who you are. ❜
❛ You are not prepared for what is to come. ❜
❛ You’ll now learn the truth about our family. And it will hurt you to the core. ❜
❛ His vital signs are so low, they can’t be detected. But he’s alive. ❜
❛ You might not believe in the prophecy, but you’re a part of it. ❜
❛ You’re the poison. You and your lies. Why would you do this? ❜
❛ The visions are clear now. I see possible futures. All at once. ❜
❛ Our enemies are all around us. And in so many futures, they prevail. But I do see a way. ❜
❛You can stop this. Do you hear me? You have the power to stop this.
❛ This prophecy is how they enslave us! ❜
❛ You think I’m stupid enough to deprive myself of the best of us? Do you smash a knife before battle? ❜
❛ There is no one in this room who can stand against me! ❜
❛ This could be the moment you’ve been praying for all your life. ❜
❛ But there is one way your family can remain in power and, through you, the continuation of our stewardship. One. Way. Are you prepared? ❜
❛ You’ve been preparing me my whole life. ❜
❛ Long live the fighters! ❜
❛ I swear to you, I wasn’t aware of any of this. ❜
❛ You die like an animal. ❜
❛ Look who’s back from the dead. ❜
❛ I want you to know… I will love you as long as I breathe. ❜
❛ They may be curious to hear my side of the story, don’t you think? ❜
❛ Consider what you’re about to do. ❜
❛ You’ll be lucky to keep your head. ❜
❛ I’ll take the hand of your daughter. She will remain safe. And we will rule together over the Empire. ❜
❛ Do you know why I killed him? Because he was a man who believed in the rules of the heart. But the heart is not meant to rule. ❜
❛ Stand or choose your champion. ❜
❛ Do not stain your hands on this animal. Let me deal with him. ❜
❛ Why does he take such risks? ❜
❛ Well, you wouldn’t be the first relative I’ve killed. ❜
❛ May thy knife chip and shatter. ❜
❛ You have fought well. ❜
❛ You should’ve believed. You chose the wrong side.❜
❛ You, of all people, should know. There are no sides. ❜
❛ Spare my father now and I will be your willing bride. The throne will be yours. ❜
❛ They refuse to honor your ascendancy. ❜
❛ Lead them to Paradise. ❜

DUNE (2021) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ Dreams are messages from the deep. ❜
❛ Why do we have to go through all of this when it’s already been decided? ❜
❛ You look tired. More dreams? ❜
❛ There is no call we do not answer. There is no faith that we betray. ❜
❛ So, it’s done? ❜
❛ Can I trust you with something? ❜
❛ I’ve been having dreams. ❜
❛ That’s a good omen right there, right? ❜
❛ I saw you lying dead. Fallen in battle. ❜
❛ Dreams make good stories, but everything important happens when we’re awake, because that’s where we make things happen. ❜
❛ I need you by my side. ❜
❛ I want you sitting in on my council, learn what I do. ❜
❛ If your answer is “no” you’ll still be the only thing I ever needed you to be, my son. ❜
❛ I found my own way to it. Maybe you’ll find yours. ❜
❛ Don’t stand with your back to the door. How many times do we have to tell you? ❜
❛ That’s rude. ❜
❛ I’m not in the mood today. ❜
❛ You fight when the necessity arises, no matter the mood. Now, fight! ❜
❛ You don’t get it, do you? You don’t really understand the grave nature of what’s happening to us. ❜
❛ You have to be ready. ❜
❛ When is a gift not a gift? ❜
❛ Not a word of this to anyone. ❜
❛ Remember your training. ❜
❛ Defiance in the eyes, like his father. ❜
❛ Come here. Kneel. ❜
❛ How dare you use the Voice on me? ❜
❛ Why are you doing this? ❜
❛ An animal caught in a trap will gnaw off its own leg to escape. What will you do? ❜
❛ I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. ❜
❛ Fear is the little death that brings obliteration. ❜
❛ If you had been unable to control your impulses like an animal, we could not have let you live. ❜
❛ You have more than one birthright. ❜
❛ Do you often dream things that happen just as you dreamt them? ❜
❛ Goodbye, young human. I hope you’ll live. ❜
❛ Did you have to go that far? ❜
❛ Do you see so little hope? ❜
❛ All part of the plan. ❜
❛ How does it feel to walk on a new world? ❜
❛ Let’s get you out of the sun. The heat can kill in this place. ❜
❛ They see what they’ve been told to see. ❜
❛ What do they say about this hell hole again? ❜
❛ If you mean to harm me, I must warn you whatever you’re hiding, it won’t be enough. ❜
❛ When you have lived with a prophecy for so long the moment of revelation is a shock. ❜
❛ You shouldn’t be out here at this time of the day. ❜
❛ I failed you today. There’s no excuse. ❜
❛ They tried to take the life of my son! ❜
❛ I don’t give a damn about your honor. You want absolution? Go catch some spies. ❜
❛ Allow them the dignity of exile. ❜
❛ I give you my word. We would not harm them. ❜
❛ The desert takes the weak. ❜
❛ A hostage? I love it. ❜
❛ I have to tell you, I’ve never come so close to dying. ❜
❛ I respect the personal dignity of any man that respects mine. ❜
❛ Name what you want. If it’s in my power to grant I’ll give it and ask for nothing. ❜
❛ Why don’t you stay. We would honor you. ❜
❛ Honor requires that I be elsewhere. ❜
❛ I know who you are. ❜
❛ You wait till you see it. It’s beautiful out there. ❜
❛ So what happens now? ❜
❛ We won’t make it. You have to evacuate. ❜
❛ It’s getting close, guys. We better abandon the ship now. ❜
❛ There is protocol for a reason, if we take one step out we’re as good as dead. ❜
❛ I recognize your footsteps. ❜
❛ What’s wrong with you? Come on. Let’s go. ❜
❛ You cannot take such risks. You do have responsibilities. ❜
❛ We’ve been set up to fail. ❜
❛ Take good care of your family. ❜
❛ The desert’s not kind to humans either. ❜
❛ I had a vision. My eyes were wide open. ❜
❛ I thought I saw my death, only it wasn’t. ❜
❛ I know you’re pregnant. ❜
❛ Anyone who defies us will fall. ❜
❛ There’s something you need to know about [name]. ❜
❛ I trusted you completely, even when you walked in shadows. Now I’m asking you this one thing. ❜
❛ If anything happens will you protect our son? ❜
❛ Why are you having these thoughts? ❜
❛ I thought we’d have more time. ❜
❛ I should have married you. ❜
❛ I had no choice. ❜
❛ I will do what I can. And you will kill a man for me. ❜
❛ Why not just cut their throats? ❜
❛ Don’t you dare touch my mother. ❜
❛ Kill him. ❜
❛ For hundreds of years we’ve traded blood for blood. But no more. ❜
❛ Here I am, here I remain! ❜
❛ It’s not safe for you here. ❜
❛ I am commanded to say nothing, to see nothing. ❜
❛ The Emperor sent us here to die. ❜
❛ You’re scared. I can see it. Tell me, please, what do you fear? ❜
❛ Somebody help me, please. ❜
❛ You know who you are. ❜
❛ Get off me! You did this to me! ❜
❛ It’s recycled water from the tent. Sweat and tears. ❜
❛ Yet you risk your life to help us. ❜
❛ The storm will be here in a few hours. We’ll be safe here. ❜
❛ Would you bear witness? ❜
❛ You’d make a play for the throne? ❜
❛ He brought you here to kill you. ❜
❛ You’re a lost boy hiding in a hole in the ground. ❜
❛ I’ve seen your dream. ❜
❛ We have to go. We have no choice. ❜
❛ You’re not coming with us? ❜
❛ The mystery of life isn’t a problem to solve. But a reality to experience. ❜
❛ Nothing survives such a storm. ❜
❛ Don’t be frightened. Even a little desert mouse can survive. ❜
❛ You’ll need to face your fears. ❜
❛ You have much to learn. And I will show you the ways of the desert. ❜
❛ I think this is the right direction. ❜
❛ We are not alone. ❜
❛ Do not run. You will only waste your bodies water. ❜
❛ We have powerful friends. You help us off world, you will be well rewarded. ❜
❛ What wealth can you offer beyond the water in your flesh. ❜
❛ Why didn’t you say you were a weirding woman and a fighter? ❜
❛ I would not have let you hurt my friends. ❜
❛ You talk like a leader, but the strongest leads. ❜
❛ Don’t be frightened. Don’t resist. ❜
❛ When you take a life, you take your own. ❜
❛ I want you to die with honor. ❜
❛ You should welcome my blade. This world will kill you. Quicker this way. ❜
❛ Do you yield? ❜
❛ There is no yielding under the Amtal rule, only death is the test of that. ❜
❛ [name] has never killed a man. ❜
❛ You’re one of us now. A life for a life. ❜
❛ [name] needs to get off world. You must have ways. You have smugglers, you have ships. ❜
❛ My road leads into the desert. ❜
❛ If you’ll have us, we will come. ❜
❛ This is only the beginning. ❜

THE TUDORS SEASON THREE SENTENCE STARTERS (PART TWO)
s03e05 - s03e08
❛ We must set to work finding a new bride for the King. ❜
❛ It's true, he has an heir, at last, but one is scarcely sufficient. To be safe, he must produce another. ❜
❛ Poor lamb. Never to know his own mother. ❜
❛ Perhaps, someday soon, you yourself will have a child. ❜
❛ You're sheltering a traitor! I want to know where he is. ❜
❛ You are going to tell me, or God help me, I'll kill you, and I have the immunity to do it. ❜
❛ I've grown afraid of my own shadow. ❜
❛ Sometimes I think I do not want this child in my belly. ❜
❛ Like the ruins of ancient Rome, the Colossus of Rhodes, all things tend towards their ruin. Even great houses and the fools who build them. ❜
❛ It's illegal to carry arms in court while the King is in residence. The penalties are severe. ❜
❛ I trust you will now apprehend the villain and prevent any further violence. Otherwise, you will pay the price for your failures. ❜
❛ Everything he might touch is to be washed, and everything he might eat, tasted for poison. ❜
❛ What the King wills, the King must have. It's not to be argued with or crossed. ❜
❛ In the absence of the King there has been much malevolence and violence at court. ❜
❛ There are some who desire disorder with all their hearts, thinking of using it, at the end, to their own advantage. ❜
❛ You presume too far above your very base and low degree! ❜
❛ The King listens to him. That makes him dangerous to everyone. ❜
❛ Perhaps it is my fate never to marry. ❜
❛ I would think less of him if he were to accept such gifts in order to love me. ❜
❛ Though I cannot touch him, I swear I will make him eat his heart. ❜
❛ Death is not ready for you, yet. God has something else in mind. ❜
❛ I know what it is that we have both lost. We have lost our youth. There is nothing in the world, that can ever return it to us. ❜
❛ I will marry who I like! ❜
❛ I want to see my son. What have you done with my son? ❜
❛ Your son is unharmed. He will remain unharmed until we are sure that you are not all traitors. ❜
❛ I ask you, whether such dishonest and treacherous sons could ever have had an honest mother! ❜
❛ With your permission, Madam, may I ask if you would consider marrying the King? ❜
❛ Is it not strange that the King's Majesty was in so little space, rid of his three Queens? ❜
❛ Frankly, Sir, if I had two heads, then one would be at His Majesty's service. Alas, I only have this one. ❜
❛ How can you suppose that at my age, I am capable of plotting anything against anyone? I wish only to live a quiet life, away from this world. ❜
❛ You may well beg mercy, but whom shall say if it be granted or not. ❜
❛ Everyone has an agenda! And what I want doesn't matter! ❜
❛ My father told me that if you leave even a sapling in the ground, one day it will grow into a tree! And that little boy will have 40,000 troops flocking to his banner, and you will be the sucker! ❜
❛ I need pictures! Do you understand? I need to see them. I need to see the woman who's going to be my companion for life. ❜
❛ I'm afraid I was not born for happiness. ❜
❛ I swear he has poisoned the King's mind! And if I could, I would strip him from the King's side, and burn him. ❜
❛ You have ten seconds to get out of my court, or I will beat you like the dog that you are! ❜
❛ I see now what it takes for a man to make his way in this world. He must make a practice of hypocrisy. ❜
❛ I say to you, again, while you still have a free choice, will you live or die? ❜
❛ There's no doubt, now, he must be overthrown by force. ❜
❛ My conscience will not permit me to consummate this marriage because I feel there is some impediment to it. ❜
❛ I tell you, God will not grant me any more children if I continue in this marriage. ❜
❛ Not telling a woman what she must expect on her wedding night is like sending a sailor to sea with no biscuit. ❜
❛ He is charming and very good looking. I think you might like him a little. ❜
❛ I resent the King nothing, but others seek to undermine me, since I was born so low and they so high. ❜
❛ I hope you can forgive my impetuosity. I know we should have been formally introduced, but I couldn't wait. ❜
❛ May I kiss your hand? ❜
❛ I have found someone to amuse the King. ❜
❛ We ran a little wild. There was some fun in it. ❜
❛ I was told before that she was charming, intelligent, well-read, gracious. A true Princess. But nothing prepared me for her beauty. But a beauty that comes from inside. To me, she is the most beautiful creature on God's earth. ❜
❛ The King has noticed you. He may ask to see you. ❜
❛ You didn't step on my foot. How could you? Your feet don't even touch the ground. I wanted a moment alone with you. ❜
❛ Would you like me to kiss you again? ❜
❛ Do not sit there. That is no place for you. Traitors do not sit among gentlemen. ❜
❛ I left her as good a maid as I found her! ❜
❛ My pride has brought its punishment. ❜

THE TUDORS SEASON THREE SENTENCE STARTERS (PART ONE)
s03e01 - s03e04
❛ I don't recognize you, my lady. Are you new at court? ❜
❛ I have been utterly abandoned. I feel I was condemned because of what [name] did. ❜
❛ I want you to come back to court. ❜
❛ I'm afraid I have not come here to discuss pleasantries. ❜
❛ However much I love my father, Your Grace, and would do anything to please and satisfy him, I still cannot risk my immortal soul for the favour of an earthly king. ❜
❛ You are an unfilial daughter. ❜
❛ I tell you, if you were my daughter, I would smash your head against the wall until it was as soft as a boiled apple. ❜
❛ Your Majesty, forgive me. But I've heard that Your Majesty may still proceed against [name]. With all my heart, I beg thee not to. ❜
❛ Are you out of your senses? Don't talk of such matters again. ❜
❛ It is very possible that the King will put you to death. ❜
❛ So long as I live, I will never forgive myself. ❜
❛ Women are much put upon in this world. lt is my desire as much as I can to promote their interests. ❜
❛ It gives me more pleasure than I can say to see you reconciled with your father. ❜
❛ Why will you not speak to me? ❜
❛ I'm disappointed, because you are not yet with child. ❜
❛ These rebels are traitors, full of wretched and devilish intents. They must be punished for their detestable and unnatural sin of rebellion against their sovereign. ❜
❛ If still they do not submit, then I promise the utter destruction of them, their wives and their children. Do you understand me? I will destroy them all. ❜
❛ You treat me like a fool. Everyone here treats me like a fool. Get out. Get out! ❜
❛ The King is still confined to his chambers by his physicians' orders, but sends his regrets and hopes you are well. ❜
❛ I worry for him so much. Especially at such a time. ❜
❛ All I hear are their complaints and their excuses. ❜
❛ You know what I think? I think they've become afraid of their own shadows. ❜
❛ I'll lead the army. I'll teach these bastard ingrates and rebels a fearful bloody lesson in slaughter. ❜
❛ Your Majesty's life is far too precious to be put at risk against such a common rabble. ❜
❛ I concocted it myself. I don't trust my physicians. ❜
❛ What fancy, what folly has led and seduced you to make this most shameful rebellion against a most noble and righteous king and sovereign? ❜
❛ Be of good cheer. For I swear, nothing now will go against you. ❜
❛ I think you are the kindest of rulers, and I wish with all my heart the world knew it. ❜
❛ I told you once before, don't meddle in my affairs. ❜
❛ I love you more than her. Don't spoil it. ❜
❛ There is another, close to the throne with a legitimate claim and a true faith. ❜
❛ I trust the King's good faith and mercy. And here's proof of it. ❜
❛ Why are you so sure that their word is not to be trusted? ❜
❛ New things come in, everything changes. I have a great appetite for novelty. ❜
❛We thank God, as we thank the King's majesty, that all this has been achieved without bloodshed. ❜
❛ Is it not obvious the King has taken this matter to his heart? ❜
❛ You're still too trusting. I wouldn't go on my own. ❜
❛ The promises of a king are worth a great deal more than the promises of ordinary folk. ❜
❛ I must beg Your Majesty's pardon. I have committed an assault within the verge of your court. ❜
❛ You ladies are conspiring something. ❜
❛ You should have told me. I should have been there. ❜
❛ There have been many rumors and a widespread mistrust of the King and his counsel. ❜
❛ If you will not trust the King, then will you at least trust me? ❜
❛ I plead with you, for the love of God, not to put this agreement in jeopardy by false actions and rush judgements. ❜
❛ The King will not be moved by words but by actions. We shall do now, what we should have done before. ❜
❛ Your Majesty, I... I gave them my word upon my honor. ❜
❛ I think you are with child. ❜
❛ You wake in the night. You say things. ❜
❛ I must kill hundreds of men, women and children or I'll lose the love of my King. ❜
❛ I said to him there was no need for courtesy in shedding the blood of traitors. ❜
❛ Of course, it will have to wait until after the birth of my son. ❜
❛ I don't ask for your blessing. Please don't send me away with your curse. ❜
❛ You are a man of honor, and I pray to god I shall never have cause to curse or disoblige you. But I beg you, show mercy. ❜
❛ It is my purpose here to show a fearful example to those who would disobey His most gracious and sacred majesty. ❜
❛ The King will not forgive you. And neither will god! ❜
❛ It's too dangerous. My husband might see us. What if I were to conceive your child? ❜
❛ So what? Lots of women lie about the fathers of their children. ❜
❛ I tell you this: If we find [name], I will not truss him up...I'm going to kill him with my own hands. ❜
❛ He has charged me with the grave responsibility of negotiating with Your Majesty a suitable marriage for your daughter. ❜
❛ The emperor has suggested a splendid offer for your hand. ❜
❛ I should not be thinking of my own happiness. ❜
❛ In a while the Queen will come to full term. I want you to organize the celebrations for the birth of my son. ❜
❛ If anything should happen to me, be a comfort to his majesty. ❜
❛ Please swear that you will stay with me now and not forsake me. ❜
❛ I talked to the physicians. In their opinion there is not a great deal of time left. The baby is likely to die unless they cut open the queen's belly to release it. ❜
❛ Your majesty may thus have to decide soon between the life of the mother or of the child. ❜
❛ Her Majesty has delivered a healthy son. ❜
❛ The Queen's health has rapidly deteriorated. ❜
❛ It's childbed fever. I know because my mother died of it. ❜
❛ Don't go. Please, don't go. Just because you have done everything that you promised, please don't leave me. ❜
❛ You are the milk of human kindness and the light in my dark, dark world. Without you life is a desert; a howling wilderness. ❜

❛ Sometimes I wonder if you even care about us at all. ❜
❛ Make sure you got a round in the chamber and your safety off. ❜
❛ Son of a bitch shot me. You believe that? ❜
❛ Look, I ask and you answer. It's common courtesy, right? ❜
❛ Get away from the windows. ❜
❛ Conserve your ammo. Goes faster than you think. Especially at target practice. ❜
❛ There are others. It's not just us. ❜
❛ Folks got no idea what they're getting into. ❜
❛ We are surviving here. We are day to day. ❜
❛ Listen, whoever you are, I don't mind telling you I'm a little concerned in here. ❜
❛ Have you been listening? You're running out of time. ❜
❛ Yeah, whatever. Yeehaw. You're still a dumbass. ❜
❛ You know what the key to scavenging is? Surviving! You know the key to surviving? Sneaking in and out, tiptoeing. Not shooting up the streets like it's the O.K. Corral. ❜
❛ You were chasing a hallucination, imagining things. It happens. ❜
❛ Hey! Y'all be more polite to a man with a gun! Only common sense. ❜
❛ We survive this by pulling together, not apart. ❜
❛ If bad ideas were an Olympic event, this would take the gold. ❜
❛ You can't leave me. You can't leave me here. Not like this. ❜
❛ At least somebody's having a good day. ❜
❛ Words can be meager things. Sometimes they fall short. ❜
❛ Nothing bit you? Nothing scratched you? ❜
❛ So that's it, huh? You're just gonna walk off? Just to hell with everybody else? ❜
❛ You're putting every single one of us at risk. Just know that. ❜
❛ The world ended. Didn't you get the memo? ❜
❛ Toughest asshole I ever met. Feed him a hammer, he'd crap out nails. ❜
❛ They're not gonna say it so I will. You're scaring people. ❜
❛ Even I think it's a bad idea and I don't even like you much. ❜
❛ There ain't nothing gonna stop him from getting back here to you, I promise you that. ❜
❛ One wrong move, you get an arrow in the ass. Just so you know. ❜
❛ You come back locked and loaded, we'll see which side spills more blood. ❜
❛ Them guns are worth more than gold. Gold won't protect your family or put food on the table. ❜
❛ What life I have I owe to him. ❜
❛ I don't think you fully appreciate the gravity of the situation. ❜
❛ You're the dumbest son of a bitch I ever met. We walked in there ready to kill every last one of you. ❜
❛ The people we've encountered since things fell apart, the worst kind… plunderers, the kind that take by force. ❜
❛ Guess the world changed. ❜
❛ The people here, they all look to me now. I don't even know why. ❜
❛ Hell with them people. Wouldn't piss on them if their heads were on fire. ❜
❛ Unless I've misread the signs, the world seems to have come to an end. At least hit a speed bump for a good long while. ❜
❛ Time…it's important to keep track, isn't it? The days at least. Don't you think? ❜
❛ Do not enter the city. It belongs to the dead now. ❜
❛ I know how the safety works. ❜
❛ We start down that road, where do we draw the line? ❜
❛ Someone needs to have some balls to take care of this damn problem! ❜
❛ We don't kill the living. ❜
❛ I'm sorry for not ever being there. I always thought there'd be more time. I'm here now. ❜
❛ These people need to know who the hell's in charge here, what the rules are. ❜
❛ There are no rules. ❜
❛ We need time to mourn and we need to bury our dead. It's what people do. ❜
❛ I won't leave again. I promise you that. Not for anything. ❜
❛ You save a grave for me? ❜
❛ It's not about what you want. That sound you hear, that's God laughing while you make plans. ❜
❛ We can't stay here. We both know that. ❜
❛ The most important thing here is we need to stay together. ❜
❛ You go on your own, you won't have anyone to watch your back. ❜
❛ Leave me here. I'm done. Just leave me. ❜
❛ The fever… You've been delirious more often than not. ❜
❛ We can't be here, this close to the city after dark. ❜
❛ You got stuff to bring in, you do it now. Once this door closes, it stays closed. ❜
❛ You know, it's over. There's nothing left. ❜
❛ You don't know what it's like out there. You may think you do, but you don't. ❜
❛ We don't have to be afraid anymore. We're safe here. ❜
❛ I lost somebody too. I know how devastating it is. ❜
❛ What's wrong with him? Seriously, is he nuts, medicated, what? ❜
❛ I did the best I could in the time that I had. I hope you'd be proud of that. ❜
❛ We always think there's gonna be more time. ❜
❛ You should've left well enough alone. It would've been so much easier. ❜
❛ I had to keep hope alive, didn't I? ❜
❛ There is no hope. There never was. ❜
❛ What part of "everything is gone" do you not understand? ❜
❛ There's your chance. Take it. ❜

INTERSTELLAR (2014) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ I thought you were the ghost. ❜
❛ You got to figure it out. I'm not always gonna be here to help you. ❜
❛ Well, I guess that answers the old "if I asked you to drive off a cliff" scenario. ❜
❛ It's like we've forgotten who we are. Explorers, pioneers, not caretakers. ❜
❛ You're the one who doesn't belong. Born 40 years too late, or 40 years too early. ❜
❛ We used to look up in the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down and worry about our place in the dirt. ❜
❛ You were good at something and you never got a chance to do anything with it. I'm sorry. ❜
❛ Don't make me take you down again. Sit down! ❜
❛ It's pretty clear you don't want any visitors. So why don't you just let us back up from your fence and we'll be on our way? Huh? ❜
❛ You're sitting in the best-kept secret in the world. Nobody stumbles in here. Nobody stumbles out. ❜
❛ I hesitate to term it supernatural, but it definitely wasn't scientific. ❜
❛ We'll find a way. We always have. ❜
❛ Okay, now you need to tell me what your plan is to save the world. ❜
❛ We're not meant to save the world. We're meant to leave it. ❜
❛ You're asking me to hang everything on an almost. ❜
❛ I'm asking you to trust me. ❜
❛ This world was never enough for you, was it? ❜
❛ Don't trust the right thing done for the wrong reason. ❜
❛ Mankind was born on Earth, it was never meant to die here. ❜
❛ We're just here to be memories for our kids. ❜
❛ Once you're a parent, you're the ghost of your children's future. ❜
❛ You have no idea when you're coming back. No idea at all! ❜
❛ Don't make me leave like this. Come on! Don't make me leave like this! ❜
❛ I love you. Forever. You hear me? I love you forever, and I'm coming back. ❜
❛ We're going to be spending a lot of time together. We should learn to talk. ❜
❛ Absolute honesty isn't always the most diplomatic, nor the safest form of communication with emotional beings. ❜
❛ We'll be waiting for you when you get back. A little older, a little wiser, but happy to see you. ❜
❛ You don't think nature can be evil? ❜
❛ Why are you whispering? They can't hear you. ❜
❛ This gets to me. This. Millimeters of aluminum, that's it, and then nothing out there for millions of miles won't kill us in seconds. ❜
❛ Everybody ready to say goodbye to our solar system? ❜
❛ You can't just think about your family. Now you have to think bigger. ❜
❛ I told you to leave me! Why didn't you? ❜
❛ One of us was thinking about the mission! ❜
❛ I was trying to do the right thing! ❜
❛ Oh, we are not prepared for this. ❜
❛ You eggheads have the survival skills of a Boy Scout troop. ❜
❛ Time is relative, okay? It can stretch and it can squeeze, but it can't run backwards, it just can't. ❜
❛ When you become a parent, one thing becomes really clear. And that is that you want to make sure your children feel safe. ❜
❛ I thought I was prepared. I knew the theory. Reality's different. ❜
❛ There's nothing here for us. ❜
❛ So it would be a real good time for you to come back. ❜
❛ I didn't mean to intrude. It's just that I've never seen you in here before. ❜
❛ I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid of time. ❜
❛ Are you calling my life's work nonsense? ❜
❛ Love isn't something we invented. It's observable, powerful. It has to mean something. ❜
❛ Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space. Maybe we should trust that, even if we can't understand it yet. ❜
❛ I let you all down. ❜
❛ Pray you never learn just how good it can be to see another face. ❜
❛ I hadn't a lot of hope to begin with, but after so long, I had none. ❜
❛ I just want to know if you left me here to die. I just have to know. ❜
❛ There are some things that aren't meant to be known. ❜
❛ We can care deeply, selflessly about those we know, but that empathy rarely extends beyond our line of sight. ❜
❛ Panic won't help. We just have to keep working, same as ever. ❜
❛ Before you get all teary, remember that as a robot I have to do anything you say. ❜
❛ A machine doesn't improvise well because you can't program a fear of death. Our survival instinct is our single greatest source of inspiration. ❜
❛ When I left Earth, I thought I was prepared to die. ❜
❛ Nothing worked out the way it was supposed to. ❜
❛ You fucking coward. ❜
❛ Listen, if you're not going to go, let your family go. Just save your family. ❜
❛ Dad's not coming back. He never was coming back. ❜
❛ You're gonna save everybody? ❜
❛ He left us here to die. ❜
❛ Don't judge me. You were never tested like I was. Few men have been. ❜
❛ You're feeling it, aren't you? The survival instinct. That's what drove me. it's what drives all of us. ❜
❛ I'm sorry, I can't watch you go through this. I'm sorry. I thought I could, but I can't. ❜
❛ The only way humans have ever figured out of getting somewhere is to leave something behind. ❜
❛ No, don't go. Don't go, you idiot. ❜
❛ They didn't bring us here to change the past. ❜
❛ I don't care who describes it, there is no way for it to be exaggerated. It was that bad. ❜
❛ Is this really what it was like? ❜
❛ I don't care much for this pretending we're back where we started. I want to know where we are. Where we're going. ❜
❛ Nobody believed me. But I knew you'd come back. ❜
❛ No parent should have to watch their own child die. ❜

INCEPTION (2010) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ Are you here to kill me? ❜
❛ For this to work, you have to let me in. ❜
❛ If I jumped, would I survive? ❜

❛ You told me it would free me. ❜
❛ Come back to reality. Please. ❜
❛ It’s not, strictly speaking, legal. ❜
❛ Our dreams feel real while we’re in them. It’s only when we wake up we realize things were strange, ❜
❛ How did we get here? Where are we? ❜
❛ Mind telling your subconscious to take it easy? ❜
❛ Wake me up! ❜
❛ The only way to wake from inside the dream is to die. ❜
❛ I’m not going to open my mind to someone like that. ❜
❛ I’ve never seen anyone pick it up so fast. ❜
❛ Word is, you’re not welcome in these parts. ❜
❛ You wouldn’t sell me out. ❜
❛ This is your idea of losing a tail? ❜
❛ A dream within a dream? ❜
❛ The only way to know you’ve done the job is if I go in with you. ❜
❛ Do you still dream? ❜
❛ It’s an elegant solution to keeping track of reality. ❜
❛ Why can’t you go home? ❜
❛ They think I killed her. ❜
❛ Your condescension, as always, is much appreciated. ❜
❛ I hope you’ve got something a little more elegant in mind than shooting me in the head like last time. ❜
❛ You know how to find me… you know what you have to do. ❜
❛ You shouldn’t be in here. ❜
❛ In my dreams we’re still together. ❜
❛ But these aren’t just dreams, are they? They’re memories. ❜
❛ What’ve you got buried down there that you regret? ❜
❛ And whatever I do, the dream’s always the same. ❜
❛ Do you know what it is to be a lover? To be half of a whole? ❜
❛ I’ll tell you a riddle. ❜
❛ You’re waiting for a train. A train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you don’t know for sure. But it doesn’t matter. How can it not matter to you where that train will take you? ❜

❛ You said we’d grow old together! ❜
❛ I’ll come back. I need you to stay here on your own for now. ❜
❛ You knew the risks and you didn’t tell us. ❜
❛ There wasn’t meant to be any risk. We weren’t supposed to be dealing with a load of gunfire. ❜
❛ Downwards is the only way forwards. We have to carry on. ❜
❛ You’ve got an hour. Get talking. ❜
❛ He loved you. In his way ❜
❛ You’ll have become an old man, filled with regret, waiting to die alone. ❜
❛ You can lose track of what’s real. ❜
❛ It’s not so bad at first, being gods. The problem is knowing that it’s not real. ❜
❛ You don’t know you’re dreaming. ❜
❛ I’m going to jump. And you’re coming with me. ❜
❛ Let’s go back inside and talk about this, please. ❜
❛ I’m asking you to take a leap of faith. ❜
❛ You’re not responsible for the idea that destroyed her. ❜
❛ Shouldn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling. ❜
❛ You must’ve noticed by now how much time [name] spends doing things he says never to do. ❜
❛ My job is to protect you from any attempt to access your mind through your dreams. ❜
❛ You’re not safe here. Trust me. They’re coming for you. ❜
❛ We’re in a dream. ❜
❛ Breathe. Remember the training. ❜
❛ So you… you’re not real? ❜
❛ You know all this, you just have to remember it. ❜
❛ I’ll lead them on a merry chase. ❜
❛ We’re here. Are we clear to proceed? ❜
❛ So that’s it, then? We failed. ❜
❛ Can I trust you to do what’s needed? ❜
❛ An idea is like a virus, resilient, highly contagious, and an idea can grow. ❜
❛ The smallest seed of an idea can grow to define or destroy your world. ❜
❛ So certain of your world. Of what’s real. ❜
❛ I know what’s real. ❜
❛ Admit it. You don’t believe in one reality anymore. ❜
❛ Choose to be here. Choose me. ❜
❛ You judged me for believing the very same thing. ❜
❛ You keep telling yourself what you know, but what do you believe? What do you feel? ❜
❛ You infected my mind. You betrayed me. ❜
❛ You can still keep your promise. We can still be together… right here. ❜
❛ I’m not going to let you lose yourself in here! ❜
❛ I’m the only thing you do believe in anymore. ❜

MOCKINGJAY - PART TWO (2015) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ My family hasn't come to see me. ❜
❛ You can't trust her! She's a monster! ❜
❛ I wanna help the rebels in any way I can. ❜
❛ That's not [name]. ❜
❛ I don't stand a chance if he doesn't get better. You'll never let him go. ❜
❛ That's like kissing someone who's drunk. Doesn't count. ❜
❛ I guess there are no rules anymore about what a person can do to another person. ❜
❛ We took heavy losses. ❜
❛ You think of it like a wolf den. You're not gonna fight your way in, so you've got two choices. You trap the wolves inside, or you flush 'em out. ❜
❛ There's gotta be a better way. ❜
❛ Even if those civilians are just moppin' floors, they're helping the enemy. And if they have to die, I can live with that. ❜
❛ With that kinda thinking, you can kill whoever you want. ❜
❛ Sometimes killing isn't personal. Figured if anyone knew that, it was you. ❜
❛ I, of all people, know that it's always personal. ❜
❛ Give me one reason I shouldn't shoot you. ❜
❛ I guess that's the problem, isn't it? We each have every reason to want to kill each other. So if you wanna kill me, do it. ❜
❛ I am done being a piece in his game. ❜
❛ These people are not your enemy. ❜
❛ He corrupts everyone and everything. He turns the best of us against each other. Stop killing for him. ❜
❛ You have a habit of burying people before they're dead. ❜
❛ We toasted a glorious era coming to its bitter end. ❜
❛ Oh, that speech you gave. Oh, man, feel - I mean, I still have goosebumps. ❜
❛ What about you? You feeling totally safe? ❜
❛ So what are your injuries? ❜
❛ I mean, it's everybody's job to keep you alive. ❜
❛ Is that why you hate me? ❜
❛ Feel free to take any of this personally. ❜
❛ They messed us up pretty good, didn't they? ❜
❛ He's strapped down. He can't hurt you. ❜
❛ It doesn't matter what you want. It's for [name]. ❜
❛ I watched you die. ❜
❛ I was never the nice one. You were. ❜
❛ Why would I take a beating like that for you? ❜
❛ [name] says that everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie. ❜
❛ People said you loved me. ❜
❛ We're very familiar with each other's screams. ❜
❛ I'm going to kill [name]. Nothing good is safe while he's alive. ❜
❛ He needs to see my eyes when I kill him. ❜
❛ Anybody can kill anybody. Even a president. You just have to be willing to sacrifice yourself. ❜
❛ This isn't just adolescent, it's insubordination. ❜
❛ From what I see here, we've already made history. But history doesn't stop to celebrate. And we're facing an enemy that will not change and will never surrender.❜
❛ If we die, let it be for a cause and not a spectacle. ❜
❛ I know when you're gonna go off on your own. You gonna leave me behind, too? ❜
❛ You'll do whatever you're ordered to do, soldier. It's not your job to ask questions.❜
❛ In the event of capture, you'll be given a nightlock pill. A poison that acts immediately. ❜
❛ If it really came down to it, you think you could shoot him? ❜
❛ I'm plannin' for you to have a long life. ❜
❛ I've seen that look. You're trying to decide whether or not you should kill me. ❜
❛ I'm sorry. I just can't tell what's real and what's made up anymore. ❜
❛ This is a bad spot. We need to move now. ❜
❛ So now that we're dead, what are we gonna do? ❜
❛ It's only a matter of time before I snap again. I'm not in control. ❜
❛ If it gets to that point, I'll kill you myself. ❜
❛ Nobody knows we're alive. This is our chance. ❜
❛ Look at me. We're gonna get through this. I promise. ❜
❛ You're still trying to protect me. Real or not real? ❜
❛ That's what you and I do. Keep each other alive. ❜
❛ Stay with me. ❜
❛ Everyone that's dead is dead because of me. ❜
❛ I never meant for this to happen. I failed. I... I killed them. ❜
❛ If you end all of this, all those deaths, they mean something. ❜
❛ I have moments when I'm here. And my memories are getting better, but other times it's like I'm sleepwalking. ❜
❛ We got one shot. Let's make it count. ❜
❛ Let me come with you, okay? I can be a good distraction. ❜
❛ If I see you again, it's gonna be a different world. ❜
❛ I was hoping you'd find your way here. There are so many things we should discuss. ❜
❛ We both know I'm not above killing children. But I'm not wasteful. I take life for specific reasons. ❜
❛ I'm afraid we've both been played for fools. ❜
❛ Oh, my dear. I thought we'd agreed never to lie to each other. ❜
❛ You never came to see me. ❜
❛ All I know is that I was supposed to take care of your family. Now I'm sorry I couldn't. ❜
❛ Thirst for blood is a difficult urge to satisfy. ❜
❛ We need to stop viewing each other as enemies. ❜
❛ I'll say this for you, you don't disappoint. ❜
❛ You were exactly who I believed you were. ❜
❛ I'm sorry so much burden fell on you. I know you'll never escape it. But if I had to put you through it again for this outcome, I would. ❜
❛ I couldn't let you go without a proper goodbye. ❜
❛ We've all suffered so much. But we owe it to their memories and to our children to do our best with these lives. ❜
❛ You love me. Real or not real? ❜

MOCKINGJAY - PART ONE (2014) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ Start simple. Start with what you know is true. ❜
❛ I wish she was dead. I wish they were all dead and we were, too. ❜
❛ Please know how welcome you are. I hope you'll find some comfort with us. ❜
❛ I apologize. I wish you had more time to recover, but unfortunately, we don't have that luxury. ❜
❛ [name] was the one who was supposed to live. ❜
❛ This revolution is about everyone. It's about all of us. And we need a voice. ❜
❛ No one else can do this but her. ❜
❛ Obviously, we need to make it personal. Remind her who the real enemy is. ❜
❛ She can't handle it. The Games destroyed her. ❜
❛ People don't always show up the way you want them to. ❜
❛ I can't believe you're going through with this. You can say "no." ❜
❛ I won't say "rebels." These are senseless acts of defiance. And I won't legitimize them. ❜
❛ Never let them see you bleed. ❜
❛ To those who ignore the warnings of history, prepare to pay the ultimate price. ❜
❛ To murder innocent people, that costs everything that you are. ❜
❛ No, we were not part of any rebel plan. We had no idea what was going on. ❜
❛ I'm sorry. It's just a nightmare. ❜
❛ Will you stay with me? ❜
❛ Tell me what's happening. I'm good at keeping secrets. ❜
❛ If you want something, you just have to ask. ❜
❛ This is worth the risk. She's worth the risk. ❜
❛ You're not a prisoner. ❜
❛ If you wanna play a prisoner of war, fine. Stay here and rot. ❜
❛ The thing with revolutions, they're a tender flame. They need to be nurtured with a little kindling and warmth. ❜
❛ You know what could use a revolution? That hair. ❜
❛ I never knew anyplace could be so strict. ❜
❛ You know, everything old can be made new again. ❜
❛ Everyone's either gonna wanna kiss you, kill you, or be you. ❜
❛ And that, my friends, is how a revolution dies. ❜
❛ This how you greet an old friend? ❜
❛ Maybe I don't recognize you sober. ❜
❛ You'll never be able to guarantee my safety. I wanna go. ❜
❛ This has gotta be fast. In and out. ❜
❛ Any hope you can give them, it's worth it. ❜
❛ I can't help them. ❜
❛ You here to fight with us? ❜
❛ If you think for one second that the Capitol will ever treat us fairly you are lying to yourselves. ❜
❛ We know who they are and what they do. This is what they do! And we must fight back. ❜
❛ Fire is catching. And if we burn, you burn with us! ❜
❛ There is no progress without compromise. No victory without sacrifice. ❜
❛ Together, we will become an alliance to be reckoned with. ❜
❛ You don't like hearing a fight song at a funeral? ❜
❛ He's changed so much already. What are they doing to him? ❜
❛ You must love her very much to be able to forgive her. ❜
❛ And ask yourself, can you trust the people you're working with? Do you know what they really want? ❜
❛ I would never say what he just said. Not if they tortured me. Not with a gun to my head. ❜
❛ 'Cause I'm in pain. That's the only way that I can get your attention. ❜
❛ Little on the nose, but, of course, so is war. ❜
❛ What have they done to you? ❜
❛ Think about it. How will this end? What will be left? No one can survive this. ❜
❛ We have to get him out before they kill him. ❜
❛ I wasn't gonna leave him behind. I couldn't live with myself. ❜
❛ Talk about something. Anything. ❜
❛ You love him. I'm not saying in what way. Maybe you don't even know yourself. But anyone paying attention can see it. ❜
❛ I drag myself outta nightmares and there's no relief in waking up. ❜
❛ Takes ten times longer to put yourself back together than it does to fall apart. ❜
❛ He's punishing [name] to punish me. ❜
❛ I suppose you're just gonna hide down here forever? ❜
❛ You know, you're the only real friend I have down here. ❜
❛ To make themselves feel better, my patrons would make presents of money or jewelry. But I found a much more valuable form of payment. Secrets. ❜
❛ Poison. The perfect weapon for a snake. ❜
❛ I don't imagine you're calling to thank me for the roses. ❜
❛ I never asked for this. ❜
❛ Please, just let him go. I will disappear. You will never have to see me ever again. ❜
❛ You couldn't run from this... any more than you could have run from the Games. ❜
❛ Please. You've won. You've already beaten me. Release [name]. And take me instead. ❜
❛ We're long past the opportunity for noble sacrifice. ❜
❛ I've always kept my promises, haven't I? ❜
❛ I doubt you know what honesty is anymore. ❜
❛ It's the things we love most that destroy us. ❜
❛ It's the worst torture in the world. Waiting, when you know there's nothing you can do. ❜
❛ Whatever strength, courage, madness, keeps us going, you find it, at times like these. You have it. It's what's kept you alive all this time. And it won't fail you now. ❜
❛ They let us go. ❜
❛ They turned him into a weapon. To kill you. ❜
❛ The fear is the most difficult thing to overcome. We're hardwired to remember fear best. ❜

CATCHING FIRE (2013) SENTENCE STARTERS
feel free to change pronouns / terms / tense as needed!
❛ You’re okay. You’re safe. It’s okay. You’re here with me. ❜
❛ It’s only a few weeks. I’ll be back before the snow melts. ❜
❛ A lot can happen in a few weeks. ❜
❛ I did what I had to do to survive. If I didn’t, I’d be dead. ❜
❛ If you wanted to be babied, you should’ve asked [name]. ❜
❛ You are a strangely dislikeable person. But you do have your virtues. ❜
❛ Such bravery. Such spirit. Such…contempt. ❜
❛ My dear, I think we can make this so much simpler if we agree not to lie to each other. What do you think? ❜
❛ What is to prevent, say, an uprising? That can lead to revolution. And then, in a fraction of time, the whole system collapses. ❜
❛ You should imagine thousands upon thousands of your people dead. This town of yours reduced to ashes. Imagine it gone. ❜
❛ Tell me. At what point did he realize the depth of your indifference towards him? ❜
❛ I don’t want to kill you. I want us to be friends. But if not friends, then allies. ❜
❛ That was nice acting. Almost thought that kiss was real. ❜
❛ All you need to do is give a few speeches, wave to the crowds, and enjoy your time in the spotlight. ❜
❛ I’m really not in the mood for a lecture. I’ll apologize to [name] later. ❜
❛ You don’t have to apologize to anybody. Including me. ❜
❛ If you can stop looking at me like I’m wounded, then I can quit acting like it. ❜
❛ I’ve never been very good at friends. ❜
❛ She was too young, too gentle. And I couldn’t save her. I’m sorry. ❜
❛ Wait! No! Leave him alone! ❜
❛ I never meant for anyone to get killed. ❜
❛ I’m sorry. I didn’t know what to do. He threatened to kill my family. ❜
❛ Well, I have family, too. Okay? People that I need to protect. ❜
❛ Come here. You’re gonna be okay. I promise. ❜
❛ It was just a dream. I’m sorry. ❜
❛ Will you stay with me? ❜
❛ We could get married. ❜
❛ Eyes bright. Chins up. Smiles on. I’m talking to you, [name]. ❜
❛ Everybody who’s anybody is here. And they all want to meet you. ❜
❛ It’s appalling. Still, if you abandon your moral judgment, it can be fun. ❜
❛ Well, maybe it was you who inspired me to come back. ❜
❛ She’s not who they think she is. She’s not a leader. She just wants to save her own skin. It’s as simple as that. ❜
❛ I agree she should die. But in the right way. At the right time. ❜
❛ It’s moves and countermoves. ❜
❛ It won’t work. Fear does not work as long as they have hope. ❜
❛ They’re gonna hate her so much they might just kill her for you. ❜
❛ If we leave right now, we can be far away from here by tonight. ❜
❛ [name] threatened to have you killed. ❜

❛ The only thing that I can think about every day, every waking moment, is how afraid I am. There’s no room for anything else. ❜
❛ You haven’t hurt people. You’ve given them an opportunity. They just have to be brave enough to take it. ❜
❛ We have to go before they kill us. They will kill us. ❜
❛ People are looking to you. ❜
❛ I don’t want anyone looking to me. I can’t help them. ❜
❛ Look, you’re new here. Trust me, I’m trying to help you. ❜
❛ Thought you’d be gone by now. ❜
❛ I’m not going anywhere. I’m gonna stay right here. Cause all kinds of trouble. ❜
❛ How can we live like this? How can anybody live like this? ❜
❛ You understand that whatever I do comes back to you. I don’t want you to get hurt. ❜
❛ You don’t have to protect me. ❜
❛ If you cannot contain [name], then I will have to terminate her. ❜
❛ And you’ve come to, what? Ask me to… die? ❜
❛ What’s it say that [name] was here 45 minutes ago begging to save your life and you only just now show up? ❜
❛ You could live 100 lifetimes and never deserve that boy. ❜
❛ There are survivors. There’s no winners. ❜
❛ Do whatever you can. [name] lives. Not me. Promise me. ❜
❛ How could any of us even trust each other? ❜
❛ It’s not about trust. It’s about staying alive. ❜
❛ You look pretty terrifying in that getup. ❜
❛ I haven’t dealt in anything as common as money in years. ❜
❛ I’m an open book. Everybody always seems to know my secrets before I know them myself. ❜
❛ So what do you think? Now that the whole world wants to sleep with you? ❜
❛ I guess we just try to figure out who we trust least and work our way backwards from there. ❜
❛ There’s always a flaw in the system. ❜
❛ How are we gonna kill these people? ❜
❛ God! Does anybody actually believe this? ❜
❛ You know, I’m getting totally screwed over here. ❜
❛ Well, you know what? Fuck that! And fuck everybody that had anything to do with it! ❜
❛ Just be your usual self. Actually, be your happier self. ❜
❛ Make him pay for it. ❜
❛ We’re a team. Aren’t we? ❜
❛ You both deserved so much better. ❜
❛ Any last advice? ❜
❛ Stay alive. ❜
❛ Remember who the real enemy is. ❜
❛ I don’t want to be with anyone else in there. Just you. ❜
❛ Look at this. They’re holding hands. I want them dead. ❜
❛ Good thing we’re allies, right? ❜
❛ Well, I guess we’re not holding hands any more. ❜
❛ I don’t care about any of them. ❜
❛ Be careful. There’s a force field up there. ❜
❛ Oh, my God. You were dead. Your heart stopped. ❜
❛ Someday I want to love someone that much. ❜
❛ We should set up camp. Take turns sleeping. I can take first watch. ❜
❛ That thing I did back there for [name]? That was called “saving his life.” ❜
❛ If I wanted to kill either of you, I would’ve done it by now. ❜
❛ Don’t worry about anything else. I’ll be right here with you. It’s okay. It’s okay. ❜
❛ She sacrificed herself for me and I didn’t even know her name. ❜
❛ They know they’re outnumbered. I doubt they’ll attack again. ❜
❛ They can’t hurt me. There’s no one left that I love. ❜
❛ Love is weird. ❜
❛ I don’t want to be the one that shoots first. ❜
❛ They’re not gonna make that same mistake again. ❜
❛ You know and I know there’s only one person walking out of here. ❜
❛ If you die and I live, I’d have nothing. Nobody else that I care about. ❜
❛ See, this is why no one lets you make the plans. ❜
❛ We couldn’t tell you with [name] watching. It was too risky. Better for you to know nothing. ❜
❛ You have been our mission from the beginning. ❜
❛ This is the revolution. ❜
❛ You promised me that you would save him over me! ❜
❛ You promised me! You’re a liar. ❜
❛ You’re okay. You’ve just been asleep for a few days. ❜

THE HUNGER GAMES (2012) SENTENCE STARTERS
feel free to change pronouns / terms / tense as needed!
❛ It’s okay. You were just dreaming, you were dreaming. ❜
❛ We could do it, you know? Take off. Live in the woods. ❜
❛ They’d catch us. Cut out our tongues or worse. ❜
❛ I’m never having kids. ❜
❛ You need to get out of here. ❜
❛ Shh, I don’t have much time. ❜
❛ No matter what you feel, you will be there for her. Do you understand? ❜
❛ Don’t cry. Don’t. ❜
❛ You’re stronger than they are. You are. ❜
❛ They just want a good show. That’s all they want. ❜
❛ You know if you don’t want to talk, I understand. But I just don’t think there’s anything wrong with getting a little bit of help. ❜
❛ Embrace the probability of your imminent death; and know, in your heart, that there’s nothing I can do to save you. ❜
❛ Now that’s a good way to get killed. ❜
❛ Oh! Joy. Why don’t you join us? I’m just giving some life-saving advice. ❜
❛ Give me a chance to wake up sweetheart. ❜
❛ That is mahogany! ❜
❛ You really wanna know how to stay alive? You get people to like you. Oh! Not what you were expecting. ❜
❛ Some water, a knife or even some matches can mean the difference between life and death. ❜
❛ That was one of the bravest things I’ve ever seen. ❜
❛ I’m sorry that this happened to you. And I’m here to help you in any way I can. ❜
❛ I’m gonna do something that they’re gonna remember. ❜
❛ We are all anybody’s going to be talking about! ❜
❛ Exposure can kill as easily as a knife. ❜
❛ They can be arrogant. And arrogance can be a big problem. ❜
❛ I hear you can shoot. ❜
❛ I have no chance of winning. None! ❜
❛ Those guys are looking at you like you’re a meal. ❜
❛ I think you have a shadow. ❜
❛ Make sure they remember you. ❜
❛ Thank you, for your consideration. ❜
❛ You realize that your actions reflect badly on all of us, not just you. ❜
❛ I hope you noticed, we have a serious situation. ❜
❛ Loosen your corset and have a drink. ❜
❛ I would have given anything to see it. ❜
❛ I thought they hated me. ❜
❛ They must have liked your guts. ❜
❛ Hope. It is the only thing stronger than fear. ❜
❛ A little hope is effective. A lot of hope is dangerous. Spark is fine, as long as it’s contained. ❜
❛ Don’t you know how beautiful you look? ❜
❛ I don’t know how to make people like me. How do you make people like you? ❜
❛ Just be yourself. I’ll be there the whole time, and just pretend you’re talking to me. ❜
❛ I think someone here is a little nervous. ❜
❛ So, tell me. Is there a special girl back home? ❜
❛ Well, that’s bad luck. ❜
❛ What the hell was that?! You don’t talk to me and then you say you have a crush on me? ❜
❛ He made me look weak. ❜
❛ He made you look desirable. Which in your case, can’t hurt sweetheart! ❜
❛ We are not star-crossed lovers. ❜
❛ Manners! ❜
❛ Can’t sleep? ❜
❛ I just don’t want them to change me. ❜
❛ I just don’t wanna be another piece in their game, you know? ❜
❛ I just keep wishing I could think of a way to show them that they don’t own me. ❜
❛ If I’m gonna die, I wanna still be me. ❜
❛ I’m not allowed to bet, but if I could I’d bet on you. ❜
❛ You sure she went this way? ❜
❛ Are you sure we shouldn’t just kill him now? ❜
❛ Let’s just wait her out. ❜
❛ Run! Damn it. Go! ❜
❛ Get out of here! What’re you doing? Go! ❜
❛ Don’t just sit there! Look at me! ❜
❛ It’s okay. I’m not gonna hurt you. ❜
❛ How long was I asleep? ❜
❛ So what happened when I was out? ❜
❛ Is all that true? You and him. ❜
❛ That sounds tempting. ❜
❛ We need a signal, in case one of us gets held up. ❜
❛ We’re gonna be okay. ❜
❛ I wanna see if she’s gonna figure out this booby trap. ❜
❛ It’s okay. You’re okay. You’re alright. ❜
❛ You have to win. ❜
❛ Can you sing? ❜
❛ Don’t kill her. You’d just create a martyr. ❜
❛ I know you know how to handle a mob, you’ve done it before. ❜
❛ If you can’t scare them. Give them something to root for. ❜
❛ Everyone likes an underdog. ❜
❛ There are lots of underdogs. And I think if you could see them, you would root for them either. ❜
❛ I like you, be careful. ❜
❛ It’s bad, huh? ❜
❛ I’m not gonna leave you! I’m not gonna do that. ❜
❛ We’ll figure something out. ❜
❛ You feel hot. ❜
❛ I remember the first time I saw you. ❜
❛ Well, say something. ❜
❛ I’m not good at saying something. ❜
❛ You’re not going alone. ❜
❛ You’re not gonna risk your life for me. I’m not gonna let you. ❜
❛ You would do it for me, wouldn’t you? ❜
❛ Now there’s no way I’m letting you go. ❜
❛ Please. Stay. ❜
❛ It’s too bad that you couldn’t help your little friend. ❜
❛ Well, we killed her. And now, we’re gonna kill you. ❜
❛ You shouldn’t have gone. You said you weren’t gonna go. ❜
❛ We could go home. ❜
❛ We should probably hunt around here. We don’t have any food left. ❜
❛ That’s nightlock! You’d be dead in a minute! ❜
❛ You scared me to death. Damn you. ❜
❛ I never even knew she was following me. ❜
❛ Go on. I’m dead anyway. I always was, right? I didn’t know that until now. ❜
❛ I can still do it. One more kill. It’s the only thing I know how to do. ❜
❛ One of us has to die. They have to have their victor. ❜
❛ Trust me. ❜
❛ They’re not happy with you. ❜
❛ Well, I’m sorry it didn’t go the way they planned. You know I’m not very happy with them either. ❜
❛ This is serious. Not just for you. They don’t take these things lightly. ❜
❛ When they ask, you say you couldn’t help yourself. ❜
❛ So what happens when we get back? ❜
❛ I guess we try to forget. ❜
❛ I don’t wanna forget. ❜

❛ I don't know what's happening to me. I can't eat. I can't sleep. ❜

❛ It's not for you to judge suffering. ❜

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ So you want me to tell you the story of my life. ❜
❛ What were you going to do? Kill me, drink my blood? ❜
❛ I'm flesh and blood, but not human. I haven't been human for 200 years. ❜
❛ I couldn't bear the pain of their loss. I longed to be released from it. ❜
❛ You lack the courage of your convictions. Do it! ❜
❛ Don't be afraid. I'm going to give you the choice l never had. ❜
❛ Your body's dying. Pay no attention. It happens to us all. ❜
❛ No words can describe it. Might as well ask Heaven what it sees. No human can know. ❜
❛ You'll get used to killing. Just forget about that mortal coil. You'll become accustomed to it, all too quickly. ❜
❛ There's nothing in the world now that doesn't hold some...Fascination. ❜
❛ The dark gift is different for each of us. But one thing is true of everyone. We grow stronger as we go along. ❜
❛ That's more like it! Anger! Fury! ❜
❛ Remember: Life without me would be even more unbearable. ❜
❛ You must know something about the meaning of it all. ❜
❛ They know about us. They watch us dine on empty plates and drink from empty glasses. ❜
❛ Forgive me if I have a lingering respect for life. ❜
❛ Perfect! Just burn the place! Burn everything we own! Have us living in a field, like cattle! ❜
❛ What if there is no Hell? Or they don't want us there? Ever think of that? ❜
❛ You're in love with your mortal nature. You resist what can bring you peace. ❜
❛ We're predators, whose all-seeing eyes give them detachment! ❜
❛ It's your coffin, enjoy it. Most of us never get to know what it feels like. ❜
❛ Kill them swiftly if you will, but do it! For do not doubt you are a killer! ❜
❛ My philosopher. My martyr. "Never take a human life.” ❜
❛ Pain is terrible for you. You feel it like no other creature, because you're a vampire. ❜
❛ Evil is a point of view. God kills indiscriminately, and so shall we. ❜
❛ A little child, she was. But also a fierce killer, now capable of the ruthless pursuit of blood with all a child's demanding. ❜
❛ Remember, never in our home! ❜
❛ Time can pass quickly for mortals when they're happy. With us, it was the same. The years flew by like minutes. ❜
❛ More melancholy nonsense. You grow more like [name] daily! ❜
❛ Do you want me to be a doll forever? ❜
❛ Can't I change like everyone else? ❜
❛ Be glad I made you what you are. You'd be dead now if I hadn't. ❜
❛ You will never grow old. And you will never die. ❜
❛ I thought of all the things I'd done and couldn't undo. And I longed for one second's peace. ❜
❛ He will never let us go. ❜
❛ What is it now? You irritate me. Your very presence irritates me! ❜
❛ Is that supposed to frighten me? ❜
❛ I came to make peace with you. Even though you're the father of lies. I want things to be as they were. ❜
❛ Why do you say such things? ❜
❛ I promise I'll get rid of the bodies. ❜
❛ We forgive each other then? ❜
❛ Good night, sweet prince. May flights of devils wing you to your rest. ❜
❛ Should we burn him? Bury him? What would he have liked? ❜
❛ You've been a very, very naughty little girl. ❜
❛ We deserve your vengeance. ❜
❛ For what could the damned really have to say to the damned? ❜
❛ There are no vampires in Transylvania? No Count Dracula? ❜
❛ I've searched the world for an immortal and this is what I find! ❜
❛ No one will harm you. I won't allow it. ❜
❛ Vampires who pretend to be humans pretending to be vampires. How avant-garde. ❜
❛ Do you know what it means to be loved by Death? ❜
❛ You die when you kill. You feel you deserve to die and you stint on nothing. ❜
❛ But perhaps...this is the only real evil left. ❜
❛ I know nothing of God. Or the Devil. I have never seen a vision, nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul. ❜
❛ You fear too much. So much you make me fear. ❜
❛ There is but one crime among us vampires here. It is the crime that means death to any vampire: To kill your own kind. ❜
❛ Danger holds you to me. ❜
❛ Love holds you to me. ❜
❛ You would leave me for [name] if he beckoned you. ❜
❛ Is that what I should do? Let you go? ❜
❛ If you want to save her, send her away! ❜
❛ The world changes. We do not. Therein lies the irony that finally kills us. ❜
❛ I need you to make contact with this age. ❜
❛ A vampire with a human soul. An immortal with a mortal's passion. ❜
❛ You are beautiful, my friend. [name] must have wept when he made you. ❜
❛ I knew him. Knew him well enough not to mourn his passing. ❜
❛ Your evil is that you cannot be evil! And I shall suffer for it no longer! ❜
❛ I haven't tears enough for what you've done to me! ❜
❛ Oh, God! I love you still! That's the torment of it! ❜
❛ Who'll care for me, my love, my dark angel, when you are gone? ❜
❛ Bear me no ill will, my love. We are now even. ❜
❛ What has died is the last breath in me that was human. ❜
❛ Your only company will be your screams. ❜
❛ Maybe it was to quench those tears forever that I took such revenge. ❜
❛ You can teach me this? To be without regret? ❜
❛ What if all I have is my suffering? My regret? ❜
❛ I know you regret nothing. You feel nothing. If that's all I have left to learn, I can do that on my own. ❜
❛ You've come home to me then? ❜
❛ I'm a spirit of preternatural flesh. Detached. Unchangeable. Empty. ❜
❛ That's it? No, it can't end like that. ❜
❛ What I wouldn't give to be like you, to have your power, to have seen the things you have seen. ❜
❛ You want a companion. You want a link to the outside world. That's me. Take me.❜
❛ Do you like this? Do you like being food for the immortals? Do you like dying? ❜
❛ I assume I need no introduction. ❜
❛ Still whining. Heard enough? I've had to listen to that for centuries. ❜

PRACTICAL MAGIC (1998) SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ She knew that when you hear the sound of the deathwatch beetle the man you love is doomed to die. ❜
❛ In this house, we have chocolate cake for breakfast. We never bother with silly things like bedtimes or brushing our teeth. ❜
❛ So when you find yourself the center of attention, It's not that they hate you. It's that, well...We're different. ❜
❛ Even you have to admit, any man who gets involved with an Owens woman.is bound to end up 6 feet under. ❜
❛ My little witch, Iet's go inside and do some spells. ❜
❛ Be careful what you wish for. ❜
❛ I hope I never fall in love. ❜
❛ The guy I dreamed of doesn't exist. And if he doesn't exist, I'll never die of a broken heart. ❜
❛ I hate it here. I want to go where no one's even heard of us. ❜
❛ We'll grow old together. It'll be you and me living in a big house. These two old biddies with all these cats. I bet we even die on the same day. ❜
❛ Darling, when will you understand that being normal is not necessarily a virtue. It denotes a lack of courage. ❜
❛ It was the curse, wasn't it? He died because I loved him so much! ❜
❛ I've never asked you for anything! I never asked for spells, but do this! You can bring him back. ❜
❛ I don't care what he comes back as. As long as he comes back. ❜
❛ What's wrong with you? We do not cast. We do not toy with people's lives. This is not a game. ❜
❛ She has all this power and doesn't use it! ❜
❛ Sometimes I feel there's a hole inside of me, an emptiness that at times seems to burn. I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could hear the ocean. ❜
❛ The moon tonight, there's a circle around it. A sign of trouble not far behind. ❜
❛ But still, sometimes when the wind is warm or the crickets sing...l dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. ❜
❛ I don't want them dancing naked under the moon. ❜
❛ The belladonna is in my bag. ❜
❛ Please, God, if you get us out of this, I'll be good. I'll have babies. ❜
❛ I had normal. I worked really hard to get that normal. ❜
❛ You have the worst taste in men. ❜
❛ Okay, I will get you out of this but when I do, we are definitely breaking up. ❜
❛ You won't believe it! We danced naked under the full moon! It was so fun! ❜
❛ I think a brownie for breakfast would fix you right up. ❜
❛ You've been away too long. Some things never change. ❜
❛ Hang onto your husbands, girls! ❜
❛ Midnight margaritas! ❜
❛ Since when is being a slut a crime in this family? ❜
❛ Something's going on. I can smell it. It's a very distinct smell. It's the smell of bullshit. ❜
❛ A cop looking for [name] wants to talk to you. And I think I'm having a heart attack. ❜
❛ And I know this sounds really strange, but I don't think I can lie to him. ❜
❛ On Halloween, they all jump off the roof and fly! ❜
❛ She's not saying they murdered him. Just that maybe they shook his hand and then he died. ❜
❛ If any man dared take on an Owens woman he'd live briefly in the euphoria of her love until meeting an untimely death. ❜
❛ Am I under some kind of surveillance? ❜
❛ Do you ever put your arms out and spin really fast? That's what love is like. It makes your heart race. It turns the world upside-down. But if you're not careful, if you don't keep your eyes on something still, you can lose your balance. ❜
❛ I got people telling me that you're up here cooking up placenta bars, that you're into devil worship... ❜
❛ You should come here on Halloween. You'd really see something. We all jump off the roof and fly. We kill our husbands too. ❜
❛ Do you have any idea how strange this all sounds to me? ❜
❛ Magic isn't just spells and potions. ❜
❛ It has power because you believe it does. ❜
❛ Wish you could believe in me. ❜
❛ We just stick to our stories. No body, no crime. ❜
❛ I. Me. Mine. That's all you can think about. You. It's all about you. ❜
❛ I'm sick and tired of cleaning up your messes. ❜
❛ You spend all your energy trying to fit in, be normal! But you'll never fit in. Because we're different! ❜
❛ All my life, I've wished I had half your talent. You're wasting yourself! ❜
❛ What if I told you I did kill him? What would you do? Would you send me to jail for life all because the world was short a man like [name]? ❜
❛ Someday you'll explain this all to me. ❜
❛ You killed his spirit, but I took his life. ❜
❛ I'll tell you all you need to know. How I did it, where I buried him. ❜
❛ You're saying what I'm feeling is just one of your spells? ❜
❛ If you stay, I wouldn't know if it was because of the spell, and you wouldn't know if it was because I didn't want to go to prison. ❜
❛ You know, all relationships have problems. ❜
❛ Curses only have power when you believe in them. And I don't. ❜
❛ You know what? I wished for you too. ❜
❛ Oh, dear. It seems we've not arrived in the nick of time. ❜
❛ This is what comes from dabbling. You can't practice witchcraft while you look down your nose at it. ❜
❛ You know the stuff everyone whispers about me…the hexes, the spells? Well, here's the thing. I'm a witch! ❜
❛ There's a little witch in all of us. ❜
❛ He wants me. Just me. Everyone will be safe. Just let him take me. ❜
❛ Don't die on me, please. Because we're supposed to die together, remember? The same time. You promised me that. And this is not that day. ❜
❛ What wouldn't I do for the right guy? ❜
❛ Can love travel back in time and heal a broken heart? ❜
❛ There are some things I know for certain: Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Plant lavender for luck. And fall in love whenever you can. ❜

THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER SENTENCE STARTERS
❛ I'm sorry for your loss, your...your losses, rather. ❜
❛ Nobody gets away with anything. Not really. ❜
❛ Don't lecture me about family values. You're just as shit in that department as I am. ❜
❛ That day was the last day we were all in the same place. Alive. ❜
❛ They will love you because I love you, and the only thing stronger than love is how scared they are of getting cut out of the will. ❜
❛ And most people go their whole, wasted, stupid lives without one minute of true resolution. Not me though. ❜
❛ You know what a resolution is? It's a deal you make with the future. ❜
❛ The people in charge of making us healthy make us sick. We cheat the dying. We fleece the poor. Promote the racist. Let the demons run amok. This world needs changing. ❜
❛ You're supposed to be shadowing me. Shadows don't fucking talk. ❜
❛ This is beneath you. And you're going to kill it. But you're better than all of this. And the minute you figure that out, you're going to be unstoppable. ❜
❛ There's no such thing as a step back. You go forward. If you hit a brick wall, you don't go back, you go through. ❜
❛ Nearly realized is the sweetest. It's better, I promise, in the moment just before than in the moment after. ❜
❛ You are consequence. And tonight, you are consequential. ❜
❛ You are a pretty, pretty little thing. ❜
❛ You wonder why people hate us. This is why. ❜
❛ Everybody knows that edible arrangements are what you send to people you hate. ❜
❛ If you start thinking this is reality, you'll just slip into the abyss. ❜
❛ We can talk about it after because I've had a shit day and I really just wanna starfish and forget the world. ❜
❛ Don't talk to me until I've come at least twice. ❜
❛ I love how deliciously, pointlessly mean you lot can be. ❜
❛ You still didn't need to come here though. It could have happened quiet. Peaceful. In bed. But I guess it's got to happen like this. ❜
❛ It's amazing how far you can get on denial. You know why so many people use denial to get by? Because it really fucking works. ❜
❛ You can't enhance this image? You see it all the time on TV. They hit a button, it enhances it. ❜
❛ I don't even own anything funeral black. ❜
❛ Satin is silk for poor people, no one should wear it to a funeral, unless they died in it. ❜
❛ Nobody knows they're the fall guy until they're falling.❜
❛ Women are the natural leaders of the species. Ancient Egypt had it right. ❜
❛ Okay, just because the door's open doesn't necessarily guarantee you a seat at the table. ❜
❛ You're not who I thought you were. ❜
❛ I really didn't want to think it, but...you're all fucking monsters. ❜
❛ Watching you shit on your principles would have been worth every fucking penny. ❜
❛ The mind of guilt is full of scorpions. And I wouldn't wish their sting on anyone. ❜
❛ Don't have to be smart to be dangerous. I'm not scared of rattlesnakes 'cause they're so smart. ❜
❛ You're so out of touch with your human side...you can't even listen to anything outside your own head. ❜
❛ I haven't seen you sleep in like...I mean, it's been a fucking long time. Like, horror movie long. ❜
❛ Life is insane. It is madness. The sooner you understand that, the better off you'll be. ❜
❛ The world might not be safe but listen to me, and listen carefully. I won't let anything happen to you. ❜
❛ All these terrible things and I thought, that's when people come together. But we've never been further apart. ❜
❛ Tell me it's worth it. Tell me you know the risk and I'll be there with you. I'll back you up. Just tell me. ❜
❛ Shut your mouth, get your shit together. The fuck is wrong with you? ❜
❛ Men, when they think they're immortal, all they want to do is fuck. When they figure out they're going to die, all they want to do is fuck. ❜
❛ It just makes you think, you know, life is so fucking short. ❜
❛ You don't have to be a tyrant, but if you don't want to be consistently cruel, then you have to be sufficiently brutal at least once to establish authority. ❜
❛ I thought it was an act. I figured you just played the housewife so you could keep a roof over your head. Spread your legs or suck his dick twice a week and you're set. You never have to work a day in your life. And I thought, "Good for her, she found her angle," but...this is really you. Isn't it? ❜
❛ Words got us into this, words can get us out. ❜
❛ You're a collection of impeccable, elaborate masks in orbit of a stunted heart. ❜
❛ There are certain things one shouldn't have to face in life. Time enough for self-reflection after. ❜
❛ I don't normally like to get my hands this dirty, but honey, you earned it. ❜
❛ I see you now. I look at you and I see... You. The poverty of you. ❜
❛ The real world is Darwinian. Survival, chaos, power. Leverage. ❜
❛ You feel it. In the air. We're sitting outside of time and space. ❜
❛ This is the moment luck meets opportunity. ❜
❛ In the ancient world, we'd seal this with blood, or spit. And then later, papyrus. But, a deal's a deal all over the world. ❜
❛ We're a... virus, I think. People, I mean. ❜
❛ But everyone loves something. And in that love there's collateral. ❜
❛ I say this with love. Let it go. Let it all go. ❜
❛ So I say, we stand tall and proud. Bill's come due. Let's not hide here in the basement like we've got something to be ashamed of. No. Not us. You and me against the world. ❜
❛ It may not have been perfect, but you can't say we didn't change the world. How many people can say that at the end? ❜
❛ I knew I would climb to the top of the tower on a pile of corpses. ❜
❛ It don't matter in the end why you did any of it. I don't fucking care why you did it. We don't want your confession, or your rationale, or your explanation. ❜
