Roberta Hertzel:
You already know how famously they get along as friends, but did you know that their sex life is positively white hot? The main reason both of my marriages failed was sexual. I'm an extremely sexual person, I can't help it, it just how I'm wired, you know, even when I was a little girl. I had my first orgasm when I was 6 in ballet class. Anyway, the point is that I have been always very easily aroused and very orgasmic, Jeannie and I have a lot in common that way. Clifford and Larry, they were nice guys, but they just could not keep up with me. Anyway, I don't want to betray Jeannie's confidence, but let me just assure you that whatever problems those two kids may run into along the way, they will always be able to count on what happens between the sheets to keep them together. More soup?
Warren Schmidt:
Eh... no, I think I'm fine now.
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
[Lee and Longstreet are discussing Harrison's report on the Union army on the night of 30 June] He says the lead element is here with the Third Corps... [he points on the map]
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
... the Sixth right behind... [he points to a different spot]
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
... supported by a column of Federal cavalry. Seven corps altogether. The First and Eleventh are above Taneytown, and there's more cavalry two hours east. There may be as many as 100,000 altogether.
General Robert E. Lee:
Do you believe the man, this Mr. Harrison?
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
No choice. Oh, you remember him, sir; the actor from Mississippi?
General Robert E. Lee:
An actor? We move on the word of an actor?
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
Can't afford not to.
General Robert E. Lee:
[Lee takes off his glasses and sits down in a camp chair] There would be some word from General Stuart. General Stuart would not leave us blind.
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
Oh, one other thing. Hooker's been replaced. George Meade's the new commander. Harrison read it in the Yankee papers.
General Robert E. Lee:
[thoughtfully] George Meade. Pennsylvania man. Meade would be cautious, I think. Take him some time to get organized. Perhaps we should move more swiftly. There may be an opportunity here.
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
Yes, sir.
General Robert E. Lee:
Well... [Lee gets up and walks back over to the map table]
General Robert E. Lee:
... no reason to delay. I think we should concentrate here. [he points to a spot on the map]
General Robert E. Lee:
All the roads converge just east of this gap, and this junction will be very necessary.
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
Yes, sir.
General Robert E. Lee:
I left my spectacles over there. What is the name of this town?
Lieutenant General James Longstreet:
[Longstreet leans over and reads the name on the map] "Gettysburg."
General Robert E. Lee:
Very well.
President Marjorie Bota:
Andrew Martin
Andrew Martin:
I've always tried to make sense of things. There must be some reason I am as I am. As you can see, Madame Chairman, I am no longer immortal.
President Marjorie Bota:
You have arranged to die?
Andrew Martin:
In a sense I have. I am growing old, my body is deteriorating, and like all of you, will eventually cease to function. As a robot, I could have lived forever. But I tell you all today, I would rather die a man, than live for all eternity a machine.
President Marjorie Bota:
Why do you want this?
Andrew Martin:
To be acknowledged for who and what I am, no more, no less. Not for acclaim, not for approval, but, the simple truth of that recognition. This has been the elemental drive of my existence, and it must be achieved, if I am to live or die with dignity.
President Marjorie Bota:
Mister Martin, what you are asking for is extremely complex and controversial. It will not be an easy decision. I must ask for your patience while I take the necessary time to make a determination of this extremely delicate matter.
Andrew Martin:
And I await your decision, Madame Chairman, thank-you for your patience. [turns to Portia and whispers]
Andrew Martin:
I tried.
Cassander:
Alexander, if we must fight, do so with stealth. Use your numbers well; we should attack tonight when they least expect us.
Alexander:
I didn't cross Asia to steal this victory, Cassander.
Cassander:
No, you are too honorable for that, no doubt influenced from sleeping with tales of Troy under your pillow. But your father was no lover of Homer's.
Parmenion:
The lands west of the Euphrates, Alexander, and his daughter's hand in marriage! Since when has a Greek ever been given such honors?
Alexander:
These are not honors, Parmenion, they're bribes! Which the Greeks have accepted too long! You forget, Parmenion, that the man who murdered my father lies across the valley floor.
Parmenion:
Come, Alexander, we're not really sure if it was Persian gold behind the assassination. It is no matter! Your father taught you never to surrender your reason to your passion! I urge you, with all my experience, regroup! Fall back to the coast, raise a larger force!
Alexander:
I would, if I were Parmenion. But I am Alexander. And no more than earth has two suns will Asia bear two kings. These are my terms. And if Darius isn't a coward who hides behind his men then he'll come to me tomorrow. And *when* he bows down to Greece, Alexander will be merciful.
Astrid:
Everybody asks why I started at the end and worked back to the beginning, the reason is simple, I couldn't understand the beginning until I had reached the end. There were too many pieces of the puzzle missing, too much you would never tell. I could sell these things. People want to buy them, but I'd set all this on fire first. She'd like that, that's what she would do. She'd make it just to burn it. I couldn't afford this one, but the beginning deserves something special. But how do I show that nothing, not a taste, not a smell, not even the color of the sky, has ever been as clear and sharp as it was when I belonged to her. I don't know how to express the being with someone so dangerous is the last time I felt safe...
Elle Driver:
Hello, Bill.
Bill:
What's her condition?
Elle Driver:
Comatose.
Bill:
Where is she?
Elle Driver:
I'm standing over her right now.
Bill:
That's my girl. Elle, you're gonna have to abort the mission.
Elle Driver:
WHAT?
Bill:
We owe her better than that.
Elle Driver:
NO YOU DON'T! YOU DON'T OWE HER SHIT!
Bill:
Will you keep your voice down?
Elle Driver:
[whispering] You don't owe her shit!
Bill:
May I say one thing?
Elle Driver:
Speak.
Bill:
Y'all beat the hell out of that woman, but you didn't kill her. And I put a bullet in her head, but her heart just kept on beatin'. Now, you saw that yourself with your own beautiful blue eye, did you not? We've done a lot of things to this lady. And if she ever wakes up, we'll do a whole lot more. But one thing we won't do is sneak into her room in the night like a filthy rat and kill her in her sleep. And the reason we won't do that thing is because... that thing would lower us. Don't you agree, Miss Driver?
Elle Driver:
I guess.
Bill:
Do you really have to guess?
Elle Driver:
[sighs] No. I don't really have to guess. I know.
Bill:
Come on home, honey.
Elle Driver:
Affirmative.
Bill:
I love you very much.
Elle Driver:
I love you, too. Bye-bye.
Jim Craig:
Wait a second, I've given you all I've got, and now you're pulling the plug on me?
Herb Brooks:
Have you? Given me your very best? Because I know there's a lot more in you, a whole other level, that for some reason you just don't want to go to!... Aww, what the hell, you don't understand what the hell I'm talking about.
Jim Craig:
No... you know what I understand, Herb? I don't understand you, nobody on this team understands you. You, with your ridiculous sayings, and your drills, and those stupid psychology tests that you had everybody take- [cut off by Herb]
Herb Brooks:
Everybody? [Starts jogging up the stairs, while Jimmy yells after him]
Jim Craig:
What, so this is what this is all about? Because I didn't take your test? Fine, you want me to take your test, I'll take your test. Is that what you want?
Herb Brooks:
No. I wanna see the kid in the net who wouldn't take the test. [walks up the remaining stairs, and out the door, with Jimmy staring after him]
Fisher:
Why do you want to get stoned?
Jimmy:
We want to get stoned, because it feels good, man.
Fisher:
Bingo, because it feels good! You want to get stoned, because it feels good! Right?
Cooper:
Right!
Fisher:
Wrong!
Cooper:
Why is that wrong?
Fisher:
Because it's a cop out...
Jimmy:
Ok, then can you explain to us why for what other reason than the fact it feels good, do we want to get stoned, man?
Fisher:
Because it's our way, of getting closer, to god.
Fisher:
That is what you're looking for; except for you didn't know it, until this minute.
Millie:
Sam, what's going on here with George?
Sam:
Oh, it's nothing bad. It's just a joke.
Millie:
What kind of joke?
Sam:
Well, we are planning on stripping him, throwing him in the river, and then we are gonna make him run home naked. We have a plan and it involves a dare.
Millie:
A dare?
Sam:
Yeah. See, the only reason I didn't tell you before... [Sam gets interrupted by Millie]
Millie:
Who said I wanted to be a part of this?
Sam:
What about this? [Sam snaps his fingers]
Millie:
What's that?
Sam:
If you could snap your fingers right now, and he would drop dead in his tracks, would you do it?
Millie:
It's totally mean, Sam.
Sam:
He's mean.
Millie:
He's a stupid fat kid. He's got problems, but he's obviously... Promise me you won't do anything to him.
Sam:
It's not just me.
Millie:
Promise me or I go back to the car.
Sam:
All right, I promise. I'll tell Rocky.
[Casper sitting on his old sled, takes his baseball cap off]
Casper:
I begged and begged my dad to give me this sled, but he acted like I couldn't even have it, because I didn't know how to ride it. But then one morning, I came down for breakfast and there it was, just for me, for no reason at all. I took it out, went sledding all day. And my dad said "that's enough" but I couldn't stop, I was having so much fun It got late, got dark, got cold...and I got sick, and my dad got sad.
Kat:
What's it like to die?
Casper:
Like... being born, only backwards. I remember, I didn't go where I was supposed to go. I just stayed behind, so my dad wouldn't be lonely.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
So we have a dirty section chief who kills Bourne's girl, Bourne comes back for revenge, tapes Abbott's confession, and Abbott commits suicide. Now Bourne's gunnin' for us. You couldn't make this stuff up. Bourne's last confirmed location was Moscow, six weeks ago.
Pamela Landy:
Right.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
He's on the run, he's dangerous...
Pamela Landy:
[interrupting him] Now Sir, with respect, I think something else could be going on here.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
What? What's he after?
Pamela Landy:
The reason Bourne went to Moscow was to see the daughter of his first target.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
What's your point, Pam?
Pamela Landy:
Maybe he was retracing his steps. Just looking for something... something in his past. Maybe he hasn't found it yet. We need to know what it is.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
You're telling me he's not a threat to this agency?
Pamela Landy:
I think if he wanted to hurt us he could have sent the tape to CNN.
CIA Director Ezra Kramer:
Maybe he still will. My number one rule is hope for the best, plan for the worst. As far as I'm concerned, Bourne's still a serious threat, until proven otherwise.
