Marcus ChongQuotes

War: War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left.

Trinity: [''Kisses him''; ''Neo resurrects, fully enlightened and the agents at the hallway end raise their firearms and simultaneously fire''] Neo, I’m not afraid anymore. The Oracle told me that I would fall in love, and that that man, the man who I loved would be The One. So you see, you can’t be dead. You can’t be, because I love you. You hear me? I love you. Now get up.

Neo: [''Raises a hand and stops all bullets in mid-air''] No.

Tank: [''Astounded''] How?

Morpheus: [''Mesmerized''] He is The One.

Tank: Okay. So what do you need, besides a miracle?

Neo: [''Endless aisles of firearms appear''] Guns. Lots of guns.

Trinity: [''Neo takes an [[w:Heckler & Koch MP5K#MP5K|MP5K] ] off a rack] Neo, no one has ever done anything like this.

Neo: [''Slap cocks the MP5K''] That’s why it’s going to work.

Neo: What are they doing to him?

Tank: Breaking into his mind. It’s like hacking into a computer, all it takes is time.

Neo: How much time?

Tank: Depends on the mind. Eventually it will crack and his alpha patterns will change from this to this. When it does, Morpheus will tell them anything they want to know.

Neo: Well, what do they want?

Tank: The leader of every ship is given codes to Zion’s mainframe computer. If an agent got the codes and got into Zion’s mainframe, it could destroy us. We can’t let that happen.

Neo: Trinity?

Tank: Zion’s more important than me or you or even Morpheus.

Neo: Well there has to be something that we can do.

Tank: There is. We pull the plug.

Trinity: You’re going to kill him? Kill Morpheus?

Tank: We don’t have any other choice.

Agent Smith: Never send a human to do a machine’s job.

Agent Brown: If indeed the insider has failed, they’ll sever the connection as soon as possible, unless...

Agent Jones: They’re dead, in either case...

Agent Smith: We have no choice but to continue as planned. Deploy the sentinels. Immediately.

Tank: Morpheus, you were more than a leader to us. You were… a father. We’ll miss you always.

Neo: Stop. I don’t believe this is happening.

Tank: Neo, this has to be done.

Neo: Does it? I don’t know, I... this can’t be just coincidence. It can’t be.

Tank: What are you talking about?

Neo: The Oracle. She told me this would happen. She told me that I would have to make a choice.

Trinity: What choice? What are you doing?

Neo: I’m going in.

Trinity: No you’re not.

Neo: I have to.

Trinity: Neo, Morpheus sacrificed himself so that he could get you out. There’s no way that you’re going back in.

Neo: Morpheus did what he did because he believed I am something I’m not.

Trinity: What?

Neo: I’m not the One, Trinity. The Oracle hit me with that too.

Trinity: No. You have to be.

Neo: I’m not, I’m sorry. I’m just another guy.

Trinity: No, Neo. That’s not true. It can’t be true.

Neo: Why?

Tank: Neo, this is insane. They’ve got Morpheus in a military controlled building. Even if you somehow got inside, those are agents holding him. Three of them. I want Morpheus back too, but what you’re talking about is suicide.

Neo: I know that’s what it looks like, but it’s not. I can’t explain to you why it’s not. Morpheus believed something and he was ready to give his life for what he believed. I understand that now. That’s why I have to go.

Tank: Why?

Neo: Because I believe in something.

Trinity: What?

Neo: [''Neo turns, walks to screen terminal and Trinity goes besides him and starts tapping on another screen terminal''] I believe I can bring him back... What are you doing?

Trinity: Going with you.

Neo: No, you’re not.

Trinity: [''Walks up to Neo''] No? Let me tell you what I believe. I believe Morpheus means more to me than he does to you. I believe if you’re really serious about saving him, you are going to need my help. And since I am the ranking officer on this ship, if you don’t like it, I believe you can go to hell. Because you aren’t going anywhere else. Tank? Load us up.

Cypher: Where are they?

Tank: Making the call.

Cypher: Good.

Trinity: You first, Neo.

Cypher: [''Fires lightning thrower at Tank but fails to hit him''; ''Fires it again and succeeds''] Shit!

Dozer: [''He witnesses it and lunges at Cypher''; ''Cypher fires lightning thrower at Dozer''] No!

Neo: I don’t know, it just went dead.

Cypher: Hello, Trinity.

Trinity: Cypher? Where’s Tank?

Cypher: [''Leans over Trinity's face''] You know, for a long time, I thought I was in love with you. I used to dream about you. You’re a beautiful woman, Trinity. Too bad things had to turn out this way.

Trinity: You killed them!

Apoc: What?!

Switch: Oh God!

Cypher: [''Jumps onto Morpheus' body''] I’m tired, Trinity. I’m tired of this war. Tired of fighting, tired of this ship, being cold, eating the same goddamn goop everyday. But most of all, I’m tired of that jackoff and all of his bullshit. Surprise, asshole! I bet you never saw this coming, didja? God, I wish I could be there, when they break you. I wish I could walk in just when it happens. So right then, you’d know it was me.

Trinity: You gave them Morpheus.

Cypher: He lied to us, Trinity. He tricked us. If you’da told us the truth, we woulda told you to shove that red pill right up your ass!

Trinity: That is not true, Cypher, he set us free.

Cypher: Free? You call this free? All I do is what he tells me to do. If I had to choose between that and the Matrix, I choose the Matrix.

Trinity: The Matrix isn’t real!

Cypher: I disagree, Trinity. I think the Matrix can be more real than this world. All I do is pull the plug here. But there, you have to watch Apoc die.

Apoc: [''Falls down dead''] Trinity.

Switch: [''Rushes down to him''] No!

Cypher: Welcome to the real world, huh, baby?

Trinity: But you’re out, Cypher. You can’t go back.

Cypher: Oh no, that’s what you think. They’re going to reinsert my body. I go back to sleep, and when I wake up, I won’t remember a goddamn thing. By the way, if you have anything terribly important to say to Switch, I suggest you say it now.

Trinity: No, no, please don’t.

Switch: [''She falls down dead''] Not like this. Not like this.

Cypher: Too late.

Trinity: Goddamn you, Cypher!

Cypher: Don’t hate me, Trinity. I’m just the messenger, and right now I’m gonna prove it to you. If Morpheus was right, then there’s no way I can pull this plug. I mean, if Neo’s The One, then there’d have to be some kind of a miracle to stop me. Right? I mean, how can he be The One if he’s dead? You never did answer me before. You bought into Morpheus’ bullshit. Come on – all I want is a little yes or no. Look into his eyes, those big pretty eyes, and tell me. Yes or no?

Trinity: Yes.

Cypher: [''Realizes Tank survived and is aiming the lightning thrower''] No! I don’t believe it!

Tank: [''Fires lightning thrower at Cypher who goes flying into pipes''] Believe it or not, you piece of shit, you’re still gonna burn!

Tank: [[w:Airline seat|the fasten seat belt; [w:Inflight smoking|no smoking signs have been turned on] Everyone please observe, ] and ]. Sit back and enjoy your ride.

Morpheus: Unbelievable, isn’t it?

Neo: God.

Trinity: What?

Neo: [''Points at passing location''] I used to eat there. Really good noodles. I have these memories from my life. None of them happened. What does that mean?

Trinity: That the Matrix cannot tell you who you are.

Neo: And an Oracle can?

Trinity: That’s different.

Neo: Did you go to her?

Trinity: Yes.

Neo: What did she tell you?

Trinity: She told me.

Neo: What?

Morpheus: We’re here. Neo, come with me.

Neo: So is this the same Oracle that made the prophecy?

Morpheus: Yes. She’s very old. She’s been with us since the beginning.

Neo: The beginning?

Morpheus: Of the Resistance.

Neo: And she knows what, everything?

Morpheus: She would say she knows enough.

Neo: And she’s never wrong.

Morpheus: Try not to think of it in terms of right and wrong. She is a guide, Neo. She can help you to find the path.

Neo: She helped you?

Morpheus: Yes.

Neo: What did she tell you?

Morpheus: That I would find the one... I told you I can only show you the door. You have to walk through it.

Priestess: Hello, Neo. You’re right on time. Make yourself at home, Morpheus. Neo, come with me. These are the other potentials, you can wait here.

Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth.

Neo: What truth?

Spoon boy: There is no spoon.

Neo: There is no spoon?

Spoon boy: Then you will see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.

Tank: [''Enters Neo's quarters''; ''Neo shakes head''] Morning, did you sleep? You will tonight, I guarantee it. I’m Tank, I’ll be your operator.

Neo: [''Noticing Tank's lack of electrical sockets''] You don’t... you don’t have any...

Tank: Holes? Nope. Me and my brother Dozer, we’re both one hundred percent pure, old fashioned, home-grown human, born free right here in the real world. Genuine child of Zion.

Neo: Zion?

Tank: If the war was over tomorrow, Zion’s where the party would be.

Neo: It’s a city?

Tank: The last human city. The only place we have left.

Neo: Where is it?

Tank: [''Nodding head''] Deep underground, near the Earth’s core, where it’s still warm. You live long enough, you might even see it. Goddamn, I... I got to tell you, I’m fairly excited to see what you’re capable of, if Morpheus is right and all... We’re not supposed to talk about this, but if you are... damn, it’s a very exciting time. We got a lot to do. Let’s get to it...

Tank: [''Jumps into operator seat with Neo in his plug-in seat and Tank is rifling through [[w:Floppy disk|floppy discs; ''holds up floppy''] Now, we’re supposed to start with these operation programs first, that’s major boring shit. Let’s do something a little more fun. How about... combat training?

Neo: [''Reading on screen''; [w:Jujutsu|Jujitsu; ''Tank uploads program''] ]? I’m going to learn Jujitsu? Holy shit!

Tank: [[w:Life (cereal)|Hey Mikey, I think he likes it] ]. How about some more?

Neo: Hell yes!

Morpheus: [''Leaning over Tank''] How is he?

Tank: Ten hours straight. He’s... a machine.

Neo: [''To Morpheus leaning over him''; [w:Kung Fun|Kung Fu] I know ].

Morpheus: [''In the sparring program''; ''They fight a round''; ''Wagging fingers''] Show me. This is a sparring program, similar to the programmed reality of the Matrix. It has the same basic rules, rules like gravity. What you must learn is that these rules are no different that the rules of a computer system. Some of them can be bent. Others can be broken. Understand? Then hit me. If you can. Good. Adaptation, improvisation. But your weakness is not your technique.

Mouse: [''To the Nebuchadnezzar crew in the mess''; ''They all scramble to see''] Morpheus is fighting Neo.

Morpheus: How did I beat you?

Neo: You’re too fast.

Morpheus: Do you believe that my being stronger or faster has anything to do with my muscles, in this place? You think that’s air you’re breathing now...? Again.

Mouse: Jesus Christ, he’s fast. Take a look at his neural kinetics, they’re way above normal.

Morpheus: What are you waiting for? You’re faster than this. Don’t think you are, know you are. Come on! Stop trying to hit me and HIT me!

Mouse: I don’t believe it.

Neo: I know what you’re trying to do.

Morpheus: [''The jump program simulation is initiated Neo and Morpheus are on top of a skyscraper''; ''Morpheus jumps from the skyscraper to another skyscraper''] I’m trying to free your mind, Neo, but I can only show you the door, you’re the one that has to walk through it. Tank, load the jump program... You have to let it all go, Neo, fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free your mind.

Neo: [''Makes focus-on-the-task-gestures''] Whoa. Okie dokie. Free my mind.

Mouse: So what if he makes it?

Tank: No one’s ever made the first jump.

Mouse: I know, I know. But what if he does?

Apoc: He won’t.

Mouse: Come on.

Trinity: Come on.

Neo: [''He jumps only to fall to the street landing softly''] All right, no problem. Free my mind. Free my mind. All right.

Mouse: Wha- what does that mean?

Switch: It doesn’t mean anything.

Cypher: Everybody falls the first time. Right, Trin'?

Neo: [''unplugged; wipes blood from mouth''] I thought it wasn’t real.

Morpheus: Your mind makes it real.

Neo: If you’re killed in the Matrix, you die here?

Morpheus: The body cannot live without the mind.
