Christian SlaterQuotes

Caroline: What did the doctor say?

Adam: That I'm not allowed to stick knives in my stomach.

Caroline: Star light, Star bright, First star I see tonight, wish I may wish I might, Have this wish I wish tonight.

Adam: That's Mars.

Caroline: What?

Adam: That's Mars.You just wished on a planet.

Caroline: Figures.

Caroline: You didn't even know what a power-play was.

Adam: I know. But next time you can tell me.

Caroline: I have fallen...

Adam: Are you hurt?

Caroline: I wasn't finished.

Adam: Finish.

Caroline: I have fallen so in love with you, so much more than I said I would.

Adam: I follow you home...

Caroline: You followed me home.

Adam: I wasn't finished.

Caroline: Finish.

Adam: I follow you home to make sure that you're... safe.

Caroline: Well, I never see you.

Adam: I stay pretty far behind. I'm sorry.

Caroline: Well, I mean, don't be sorry... I just...

Adam: I wasn't finished.

Caroline: Finish.

Adam: I'm sorry I was late that night.

Caroline: I never hear you speak, and when you do, you apologize for saving me?

Adam: I wonder if you think about me.

Caroline: Of course I think about you!

Adam: I wasn't finished!

Caroline: Finish.

Adam: I wonder if you think about me, as much as I think about you.

Caroline: [Adam nods] You don't have to come as my boyfriend or anything. Though I'd like you to. Is that a yes?

Adam: Yes.

Caroline: Say yes again.

Adam: Yes.

Caroline: When did you get here?

Adam: Ten.

Caroline: [realizing] Ten? That was almost two hours ago. You'd rather be out here with my cat than inside with... than inside with a room full of strangers and relatives.

Adam: Do you like music, Caroline?

Caroline: Mmm. That's the first time I heard you say my name. It sounded... nice.

Adam: Would you like to listen to my records, Caroline?... Caroline.

Caroline: Adam, your heart is diseased! You need a new one.

Adam: But this is my heart! I'm afraid that if they take it away, I won't be able to love you the same.

Caroline: You love with your mind and your soul, not your heart.

Adam: [touching his chest] Then how come I hurt here when you're not with me?

Adam: You are my peace.

Adam: Once people got used to stay away, they always stay away. I never got close to anyone.

Adam: I am not very good with people.

Robert Boyd: That's not the point, Adam. I mean, the room is covered in blow; Moore looks like he went at it with a fuckin mountain lion; I mean, the room looks like the Manson family stayed here a month. This is a major thin-ice situation we got here.

Robert Boyd: If you take away the horror of the scene, take away the tragedy of the death, take away all the moral and ethical implications that have been drilled into your head since grade one, do you know what you're left with? A 105-pound problem that needs to be moved from point A to point B.

Robert Boyd: Allow me to be the first to say that what we have done here is not a good thing. It's definitely not a good thing. But it was, given the circumstances, the smart play.

Binx: What's this?

Putter: I think it's chicken.

Binx: It doesn't taste like chicken.

Ophelia: When you rich, food ain't supposed to taste like what it really is.

Boy: Did you rob that liquor store in Galveston?

Binx: Yep, that was us.

Billie Jean: We did not.

Guy: What about that school in Laredo? You burn it down?

Binx: No way, guy. We don't do schools.

Billie Jean: [on TV] I'm Billie Jean Davy, and I wanna set the record straight.

Ringwald: Oh my God!

Policeman #1: Wow!

Billie Jean: I'm not a liar, I'm not a thief, and neither is my brother.

Binx: [cuts in] Hello, ma!

Billie Jean: [shoves Binx aside] Sorry, that is him. Mom, I don't know when we'll be comin home, but we love you. I know people are making up stories about us. Don't you believe them. As for you, Mr. Pyatt. You are so sleazy.

Putter: [cheers on camera] YEA!

Billie Jean: You think you can do anything you want and then lie about it and we just have to take it, because what are we? Just a bunch of kids. Well not this time. From now on we're doin this our way. No lyin', no cheatin', fair is fair.

Kid #1 in Crowd: [at electronics store watching TV] Alright!

Billie Jean: $608 dollars for the scooter your son trashed. That's what you owe, and we're NOT turnin ourselves in til we get it. Fair is fair! We didn't start this, we didn't mean it to happen, but we're not givin up til you pay. FAIR IS FAIR!

Ophelia: [Billie Jean steps out with her hair cut] Oh my God! Billie Jean, you look...

Binx: Famous!

Lloyd: Saint Joan.

Mark Hunter: OK, this is really me now. No more hiding. Listen, we're all worried, we're all in pain. That just comes with having eyes and with having ears. But just remember one thing, it can't get any worse, it can only get better. I mean High School is the bottom. Being a teenager sucks! But that's the point, surviving it is the whole point! Quitting is not going to make you strong, living will. So just hang on and hang in there. You know, I know all about the hating and the sneering. I'm a member of the "why bother" generation myself. But why did I bother to come out here tonight, and why did you? I mean, It's time. It's begins with us, not with politicians, the experts or the teachers but with us. With you and with me. The ones who need it most. I gotta believe, with everything in me, the whole world is longing for healing. Even the trees, the earth itself are crying out for it. You can hear it everywhere. Same kinda healing I desperately needed and I finally feel has begun, with you.

Mark Hunter: We're all worried, we're all in pain. That just comes with having eyes and having ears. But just remember one thing - it can't get any worse, it can only get better. High school is the bottom, being a teenager sucks, but that's the point, surviving it is the whole point. Quitting is not going to make you stronger, living will. So just hang on and hang in there.

Mark Hunter: You see I didn't plan it like this. My dumb dad got me this shortwave radio set so I could just talk to my buddies back east. But I couldn't reach anybody. So I just imagined I was talking to nobody, I imagined nobody listening. Maybe I imagined there would be one person out there... And then one day I woke up, and I realized I was never going to be normal, so I said, "Fuck it." I said, "So be it." And Happy Harry Hard-On was born. But I never meant to hurt anyone. I never meant to hurt anyone. I'm sorry Malcolm. I never said, "Don't do it.

Mark Hunter: [[w:1990s|totally, like, exhausted decade] Dear Harry, I think you're boring and obnoxious and have a high opinion of yourself. Course some of you are probably thinking I sent this one to myself. I think school is okay if you just look at it right. I mean I like your music, but I really don't see why you can't be cheerful for one second. I'll tell you since you asked. I just arrived in this stupid suburb. I have no friends, no money, no car, no license. And even if I did have a license all I can do is drive out to some stupid mall. Maybe if I'm lucky play some fucking video games, smoke a joint and get stupid. You see, there's nothing to do anymore. Everything decent's been done. All the great themes have been used up. Turned into theme parks. So I don't really find it exactly cheerful to be living in the middle of a ] where there's nothing to look forward to and no one to look up to.

Mark Hunter: They say I'm disturbed. Well, of course I'm disturbed. I mean, we're all disturbed. And if we're not, why not? Doesn't this blend of blindness and blandness want to make you do something crazy? Then why not do something crazy? It makes a helluva lot more sense than blowing your fucking brains out.

Mark Hunter: I'm sick of being ashamed. I don't mind being dejected and rejected, but I'm not going to be ashamed about it. At least pain is real. I mean, you look around and you see nothing is real, but at least the pain is real.

Mark Hunter: You hear about some kid who did something stupid, something desperate; what possessed him? How could he do such a terrible thing? Well, it's really quite simple, actually. Consider the life of a teenager - you have parents, teachers telling you what to do, you have movies, magazines and TV telling you what to do, but you know what you have to do. Your job, your purpose is to get accepted, get a cute girlfriend, think up something great to do with the rest of your life. What if you're confused and can't imagine a career? What if you're funny looking and can't get a girlfriend? You see, no-one wants to hear it. But the terrible secret is that being young is sometimes less fun than being dead.

Mark Hunter: Talk hard, I like that. It's like a dirty thought in a nice clean mind.

Mark Hunter: Guess who? It's 10 o'clock, do you care where your parents are?

Mark Hunter: [[w:Black Jack (gum)|Black Jack gum; puts needle on record player, and "Everybody Knows" plays; '''[[w:Leonard Cohen|Leonard Cohen] Okay. Down to business. I got my Wild Cherry Diet Pepsi, and, uh, I got my ] here, and I got that feeling. Mmm. Yeah, that familiar feeling that something rank is going down out there. ]: ♪ Everybody knows that the dice are loaded. Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed. Everybody knows the war is over. Everybody knows the good guys lost. Everybody knows the fight was fixed. The poor stay poor, the rich get rich. That's how it goes. Everybody knows. Everybody knows that the boat is leaking. Everybody knows that the captain lied. Everybody got this broken feeling, like their father or their dog just died. Everybody talking to their pockets. Everybody wants a box of chocolates, and a long-stem rose. Everybody knows. Everybody knows that you love me, baby. Everybody knows that you really do. Everybody knows that you've been faithful. Ah, give or take a night or two. Everybody knows you've been discreet. ♪] Yeah, I can smell it. I can almost taste it. The rankness in the air. It's everywhere. It's running through that old pipeline out there, trickling along the dumb concrete river and coming up through the drains of those lovely track homes we all live in.

Mark Hunter: You ever get the feeling that everything in America is completely fucked up? You know that feeling that the whole country is like, one inch away from saying, "That's it! Forget it!". I mean, think about it. Everything's polluted. The environment, the government, the schools, you name it. Speaking of schools, I was walking the hallowed halls the other day and I ask myself, "Is there life after high school?" Because I can't face tomorrow, let alone a whole year than shit. Yeah, you got it, folks. It's me again with a little attitude for all of you out there in Whitebread Land. All you nice people living in the middle of America, the beautiful. Let's see, we're on, uh, 92 FM tonight, and it feels like a nice, clean little band so far. No one else is using it, price is right. And, yes, folks, you guessed it. Tonight, I'm as horny as a ten peckered owl, so stay tuned because this is Hard Harry reminding you to eat your cereal with a fork and do your homework in the dark.

James Stamphill: I will ask you what I want to ask you.

Henri Young: And I answer what I want to answer.

James Stamphill: Fine.

Henri Young: Fine.

James Stamphill: How do you think the Yankees will do against the Redskins this year?

Henri Young: The Yankees are a baseball team. The Redskins are a football team. Personally, I think the Redskins would kick the shit out of them.

James Stamphill: Did you kill Rufus McCain?

Henri Young: I was the weapon, but I ain't no killer.

James Stamphill: I was wondering if I could talk to you, sir, about a continuance.

D.A. William McNeil: No.

James Stamphill: You don't understand, sir, he just sits there. I can't even get him to speak.

D.A. William McNeil: Well maybe he's practicing for the gas chamber. Tell him to take deep breaths.

James Stamphill: [[Charles Dickens] ] once said that solitary confinement was inhumane. Seven months later, the Supreme Court agreed. As a a result of the facts brought out in the trail of The People vs. Young, the dungeons of Alcatraz were closed forever. Associate warden Glenn was brought up on charges of mistreatment. He was found guilty. He would never work in the penal system again. I remained in private practice. I also became a baseball fan. You did it, Henri!

James Stamphill: Unlike many men who lived long after, Henri Young did not die in vain. In the end he was not afraid. He lived and he died in triumph. If only we could all do that.

James Stamphill: When you try to win, sometimes you lose sight of the goal.

James Stamphill: The definition of rehabilitate: To restore to a state of physical, mental, and moral health through treatment and training.

Hanson: I don't know what it is with those sideburns. I mean, I glued mine on. For you it's an actual lifestyle choice.

Riley Hale: My name's Riley Hale.

Terry Carmichael: Terry Carmichael. You know you're still under arrest, Captain.

Hale: [holding Terry's hand] Well, looks like you're gonna have to take me in.

Vic Deakins: [Hale spins around, looking at the phone Deakins is speaking through] Hale. Pick up. Pick UP! C'mon buddy - pick up the phone.

Riley Hale: Buddy," huh? Son of a bitch, you tried to kill me. The friendship is over.

Deakins: Well, that doesn't mean I don't like you. Hell - I'm impressed. I'd have figured you'd have picked up and walked off by now.

Hale: [begins punching random keys on the bomb's keypad, beeping is heard through Deakins' end of the line] Yeah? Well, you figured wrong. Now I've got the nukes. Guess what, Deak? I'm gonna deactivate em. You hear that? That's me punching in the wrong codes. Pretty soon these things are gonna be absolutely useless. Might as well turn around and drive away.

Deakins: [Mockingly; The bomb arms] Outstanding, Hale! That's the spirit! Damn, I'm totally screwed now. Unless of course I already thought of that ahead of time. Didn't work, did it? I used uncoded circuit boards. You just activated a nuclear warhead, my friend. Setting off a nuke in this mine has been part of my plan from day one. Otherwise some D.C. civilian might say, I haven't got the guts.

Hale: Fuck!

Terry Carmichael: He's insane.

Deakins: You know, Hale, I considered bringing you in on this. You know why I didn't?

Hale: Because I would have said "no"?

Deakins: Nah, if you'd said "no" I'd have just killed you; I was afraid that you were going to say "yes"! Cause you don't have the balls to follow through with something like this, we both know that.

Riley Hale: So that's what this is all about, huh? The money?

Vic Deakins: [''Laughs''] Yeah.

Hale: Bullshit.

Deakins: Well, you tell me why. Go ahead. You tell me why.

Hale: Because you've been passed over for promotion so many times, you want to show the bastards you're right. Maybe it's cause everybody's cashing out so why the hell not you? I don't know. Maybe-maybe your mother dropped you on your head when you were a baby. I mean, who the hell cares, Deak? I mean, there's no difference between you and a guy who shoots up a schoolyard. You've both got a head full of bad wiring.

Deakins: [Edging closer] What was that?

Hale: You're fucked in the head, Deak!

Deakins: HA!

Hale: I pissed him off.

Riley Hale: You're out of your mind.

Vic Deakins: Yeah. Ain't it cool?

Hale: I'm serious, Deak, your mind has taken a walk off the map.

Deakins: Maybe. But I'm still gonna kick your ass.

Riley Hale: I don't think that Aurora Project is gonna happen for me. I spoke to your buddy Taylor; he doesn't feel like I have enough fighter time to qualify.

Vic Deakins: And what did you say to him?

Hale: Thank you very much, sir, goodbye.

Deakins: You'll never change, will you? And that, my friend, will be your downfall.

Hale: You know what your problem is?

Deakins: Yeah. I'm always right.

Hale: You think you're always right.

Deakins: That's deep.

Hale: You said so yourself- you should have made colonel by now, but you're too busy pushing at everybody all the time.

Deakins: Well. That's an awesome responsibility, isn't it?

Drexl Spivey: No thanks? What does that mean? Means you ate before you came down here? All full. Is that it? Naw, I don't think so. I think you're too scared to be eatin'. Now, see we're sittin down here, ready to negotiate, and you've already given up your shit. I'm still a mystery to you. But I know exactly where your white ass is comin from. See, if I asked you if you wanted some dinner and you grabbed an egg roll and started to chow down, I'd say to myself, "This motherfucker's carryin on like he ain't got a care in the world. Who know? Maybe he don't. Maybe this fool's such a bad motherfucker, he don't got to worry about nothin', he just sit down, eat my Chinese, watch my TV." See? You ain't even sat down yet. On that TV there, since you been in the room, is a woman with her breasteses hangin out, and you ain't even bothered to look. You just been clockin me. Now, I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.

Clarence Worley: I'm not eatin cause I'm not hungry. I'm not sittin cause I'm not stayin'. I'm not lookin at the movie cause I saw it seven years ago. It's "The Mack" with Max Julien, Carol Speed, and Richard Pryor. I'm not scared of you. I just don't like you. In that envelope is some payoff money. Alabama's moving on to some greener pastures. We're not negotiatin'. I don't like to barter. I don't like to dicker. I never have fun in Tijuana. That price is non-negotiable. What's in that envelope is for my peace of mind. My peace of mind is worth that much. Not one penny more, not one penny more.

Clarence Worley: [Peeling out in reverse into oncoming traffic; [Bullitt] We now return to ] already in progress.

Clarence Worley: I've been in America all my life. I've always wanted to see what TV in other countries looks like.

Clarence Worley: [About Sonny Chiba] Well, he ain't so much a good guy as he is just a bad motherfucker. I mean, he gets paid by people to fuck guys up, you know?

Clarence Worley: You just said you love me, now if I say I love you and just throw caution to the wind and let the chips fall where they may and you're lying to me I'm gonna fuckin die.

Clarence Worley: If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it.

Clarence Worley: [[Elvis Presley|Elvis] I always said, if I had to fuck a guy... I mean had to, if my life depended on it... I'd fuck ].
