Young Michael Myers: [Michael puts on a black-colored paper mask] Look at my mask.
Dr. Samuel Loomis: Oh, wow... beautiful, yeah. Why is it all... black?
Young Michael Myers: Cause. It's one of my favorite colors.
Dr. Samuel Loomis: Well, actually, black isn't a color, is it? It's the absence of color. In the spectrum of colors, you go from black, which is no color, all the way through to white, which is every color. So, technically... not that it really matters... but black isn't a color.

Mick Travis: [trimming his mustache] My face is a never fading source of wonder to me.

Caligula: Treason!

Caligula - Power and Fear in Political Conflict

Caesonia: They hate you now.
Caligula: Let them hate me, so long as they fear me.

Caligula - A Disagreement on Marriage Choices in Rome

Caligula: That will be my wife.
Drusilla: [[w:Caesonia|Caesonia] Oh no! Not ].

Drusilla: Caesonia's been divorced. She's extravagant, always in debt.
Caligula: I want her.
Drusilla: But not for a wife.

Caligula: Liar!

Caligula - Struggles with Fate and Friendship

Tiberius: [seeing Nerva has cut his wrists; to Nerva] Cretins... why did you permit him to do it? Bind his wrists... BIND HIS WRISTS! You must not go, you must not leave me, you are my friend, my only friend.
Nerva: I've lived too long, Tiberius, I hate my life.
Tiberius: [to the slaves] Leave us! Both of you!
Nerva: [[w:Naevius Sutorius Macro|Macro] For a man to choose the hour of his own death is the closest he will ever come to tricking fate, and fate decrees that when you die, ] will kill me.
Tiberius: I'll arrest him and have him executed.
Nerva: [Looks at Caligula] You can't. He controls you. Anyway, even with Macro dead, how could I go on living with this reptile?
Tiberius: [To Caligula] You will respect my friend always, won't you, reptile?
Caligula: I've always respected him, lord.
Tiberius: [To Nerva] You hear?
Nerva: Tiberius, you were wise once.
Tiberius: Ah, don't taunt me. I am old.
Nerva: I've watched you grow into a monster! One by one, I've seen you murder your whole family, your friends, the noblest men in Rome.
Caligula: That is treason!
Nerva: No, it's the truth.

Tiberius: All I wanted was private life. I did not truly want to become emperor, but I had to.
Caligula: Had to?
Tiberius: If someone else had become emperor, I would have been killed, as you will be.

Caligula - Fate and Divinity in Caligula's Dialogue

Tiberius: I'm old.
Caligula: Yes, lord. But you will live forever.
Tiberius: [[w:Tiberius Gemellus|Gemellus; [w:Claudius|Claudius] All my family are dead but you, the child ], and that ], that uncle. They were struck down by fate, and it is fate, "Little Boots", that rules us, not any god.
Caligula: You are a god, lord.

Nerva: Old, like me.
Caligula: I mean, how is his mood?
Nerva: Like the weather.

Nerva: Changeable. I've heard that during the last month, seven of my colleagues in the senate have been put to death for treason.
Caligula: [[w:Marcus Cocceius Nerva (jurist)|Nerva] Nine, to be exact. Five of them cheated. They killed themselves. That wasn't playing fair. Don't you agree, ]?
