The Jacket - The Value of Life and Death Awareness

Jack Starks: Sometimes I think we live through things only to be able to say that it happened. That it wasn't to someone else, it was to me. Sometimes we live to beat the odds. I'm not crazy even though they thought I was. I live in the same world as everyone else. I just saw more of it, as I'm sure you have. They'll find my body tomorrow. You can check it out if you don't believe me. I've seen life after my death, and I'm telling you this because it's the only way to help you and your daughter have a better life of your own. Jean, you're gonna pass out one day smoking a cigarette and burn to death. Your daughter grows up living the same sad life you're living right now. And she misses you so much. Sometimes life can only really begin with the knowledge of death. That it can all end, even when you least want it to. The important thing in life is to believe that while you're alive, it's never too late. I promise you, Jean, no matter how bad things look, they look better awake than they do asleep. When you die, there's only one thing you want to happen. You wanna come back.

Predators - The Complexity of Human Hunting

Isabelle: What happened to you? What made you so fucked up?
Royce: There is no hunting like the hunting of a man. And those who've hunted armed men long enough, and like it, never really care for anything else thereafter.

Winger: But I finally know what the Taxman looks like, so I'll find him.
Leveque: [''A henchman is suffering from wound''] What is this?
Winger: He doesn't know anything.
Leveque: [''Picks up container of bullet ants''; ''Chuckles''] We cannot afford this kind of failure. The game we play, it's like no other. If we succeed, we have wealth, power. And if we fail, we die. And that is only if we're lucky.
Henchman: [''Crying''] No, please. Please... Please help me.
Leveque: No more mistakes.
Henchman: [''Leveque pours bullet ants all over henchman who screams in anguish''] No.
Leveque: [''Makes cut throat gesture''] Get that photo to every bounty hunter on the continent. One million dollars. Alive. He is our only access to that code. Anyone kills the Taxman, that bounty moves onto their head.

Ghosted - Clever Tactics Amidst Historical Context

Leveque: Great khans, they used to cross these lands. Brutal Killers. It was said if you wanted to find one, you had to step over the dead.

Leveque: Mmm. Clever.

László Tóth: The people here, they do not want us here. Audrey, Attila's Catholic wife, does not want us here! She does not want us here! We are nothing. We are worse than nothing.

The Brutalist - Reflections on Resilience and Memory in Architecture

László Tóth: Nothing is of its own explanation. Is there a better description of a cube than that of its construction? There was a war on. And yet it is my understanding that many of the sites of my projects have survived. They remain there still in the city. When the terrible recollections of what happened in Europe cease to humiliate us, I expect for them to serve instead as a political stimulus, sparking the upheavals that so frequently occur in the cycles of peoplehood. I already anticipate a communal rhetoric of anger and fear. A whole river of such frivolities may flow undammed. But my buildings were devised to endure such erosion of the Danube's shoreline.
Harrison Lee Van Buren Sr.: What a poetic reply.

László Tóth: I will follow you until I die.
