Knowing - The Interpretation of Numbers and Meaning
John Koestler:
I'm not saying that 81 people are going to die tomorrow, okay? I'm just trying to understand why THIS is SAYING they will!
Phil Bergman:
Okay, it's spooky, all right? I'll grant you. It's more than spooky. But just step back, all right? You have all these uncircled numbers with no sequence to them. I mean, numerology, kabbalah, pythagorean cults, there are systems that find meaning in numbers, and they are a dime a dozen. Why? Because people see what they want to see in them.

Knowing - Warnings from the Stars
John Koestler:
I found evidence of a series of super-flares from a star in the outer-Pleiades's region.
Phil Bergman:
Right. Ratings were off the chart.
John Koestler:
We were both wrong. The numbers are a warning, but not just to me or any random group. They're a warning to everyone.
Phil Bergman:
Okay. You're officially scaring the shit out of me right now.
John Koestler:
The super-flare, in our own solar system. A 100 microtesla wave of radiation that would destroy our ozone layer, killing every living organism on the planet.
Phil Bergman:
We have to let everyone know. We have to call the NOAA.
John Koestler:
They already know. The announcement will come anytime now. I thought there was some purpose to all this. Why did I get this prediction if there's nothing I can do about it? How am I supposed to stop the end of the world?

Galen Erso:
What is it that you want?
Orson Krennic:
The work has stalled. We need you to come back.
Galen Erso:
I won't do it, Krennic.
Krennic: [gestures with pinched fingers]
We were on the verge of greatness. We were this close to providing peace and security for the galaxy.
Galen Erso:
You're confusing peace... with terror.
Krennic:
Well, you have to start somewhere.

Darkest Hour - Facing Fear Together
King George VI:
And you? Are you not afraid?
Winston Churchill:
I am, most terribly.
King George VI:
You have my support.
Winston Churchill:
...Your Majesty?
King George VI:
You have my support. I confess I had some reservations about you at first. But while some in this country dreaded your appointment, none - none - dreaded it like Adolf Hitler. Whomever can strike fear into that brute heart is worthy of all of our trust. We shall work together, you and I. You shall have my support, at any hour. Beat the buggers.

Darkest Hour - Unpredictable Emotions and Parental Influence
Winston Churchill:
What utter nonsense. Look at me. What could possibly be scary about me?
King George VI:
One never knows what's going to come out of your mouth next. Something that'll flatter, something that'll wound.
Winston Churchill:
My emotions are unbridled. A wildness in the blood I share with my father. And my mother also. We lack the gift of temperance.
King George VI:
Were you close to your parents?
Winston Churchill:
My mother was glamorous... but perhaps too widely-loved. My father was... like God. Busy elsewhere.

No. But necessary. I work late.

The Dark Knight Rises - Corporate Tensions Amidst a Grand Scheme
John Daggett:
What the hell is going on?
Bane:
Our plan is proceeding as expected.
Daggett:
Oh, really? Do I look like I'm running Wayne Enterprises right now? Your hit on the stock exchange, it didn't work, my friend, and now you have my construction crews going around the city at 24 hours a day. How exactly is that supposed to help my company absorb Wayne's?
Bane: [to Stryver]
Leave us.
Daggett:
No. Stay here. I'm in charge.
Bane: [reaching for Daggett's neck; Stryver exits]
Do you feel in charge?
Daggett:
I've paid you a small fortune!
Bane:
And this gives you power over me?
Daggett:
What is this?
Bane:
Your money and infrastructure have been important until now.
Daggett:
What are you?
Bane:
I'm Gotham's reckoning, here to end the borrowed time you've all been living on.
The Daggett:
You're pure evil!
Bane:
I'm necessary evil.
