Brazil - Misidentification and Accountability in Information Systems
Sam Lowry: [[know; [wrong]
I only ] you got the ] man.
Jack Lint: [[good; [faith]
Information Transit got to wrong man. I got the right man. The wrong man was delivered to me as the right man. I accepted him on ] ] as the right man. Was I wrong?
Sam Lowry:
You killed Buttle?
Jack Lint:
Sam, there are very rigid parameters laid down to prevent such things happening. It wasn't my fault that Buttle's heart condition didn't appear on Tuttle's file... We're going to have to bring Mr. Tuttle in, aren't we? And interrogate him at the same voltage as Mr. Buttle - and juggle the books in electrical banking.
Sam Lowry:
What has Tuttle done?
Jack Lint:
We suspect him of, uh, free lance subversion. Then all I need to wrap up the case is the Layton woman.
Sam Lowry:
What has she done?
Jack Lint:
Oh, she witnessed the Tuttle, uhm, the Buttle arrest and essentially is going around making wild allegations, obviously trying to exploit the situation. She's working for someone and I don't think it's us.
Sam Lowry: [softly to himself]
A terrorist?

Brazil - Absurdity of Bureaucracy and Compliance
Arresting Officer:
That is your receipt for your husband... and this is my receipt for your receipt.
Bill, Department of Works:
Mistakes? We don't make mistakes.
Charlie, Department of Works:
Bloody typical, they've gone back to metric without telling us.
Guard:
Don't fight it, son. Confess quickly! If you hold out too long you could jeopardize your credit rating.
Mr. Warrenn:
Ahhhh! Here we are. Your very own number, on your very own door. And behind that door, your very own office! Congratulations, DZ-stroke-oh-one-five. Welcome to the team!
Mr. Warrenn:
And what the hell is this mess. An empty desk is an efficient desk...I don't know what's going on here, Lowry, but don't think you can intimidate us with your friends and relatives in high places. NOW SHAPE UP!
Kurtzmann:
It's been confusion from the word go! He's been overcharged for Information Retrieval Procedures and someone somewhere is trying to make us carry the can.
Jack Lint:
We've always been close, haven't we? Well, until this whole thing blows over, just stay away from me.
Jack Lint:
This is information retrieval not information dispersal.
Dr. Lewis Jaffe:
Can you believe it? Just me and my little knife. Snip, snip, slice, slice...But this is just the beginning...You've seen her with her clothes off. Faces are a doddle compared to tits and ass. No hairlines.
Dr. Chapman:
That technique...I've tried it. A nice effect, but highly unstable. In six months, she'll look like Grandma Moses.
Spoor:
Where'd you get this from, eh? Out yer nostril?
Spoor:
All you've got to do is blow your nose and it's fixed, in't it?
Holly:
Put it on, big boy. I won't look at your willy.
Mrs. Terrain:
My complication had a little complication. But Dr. Jaffe says I'll soon be up and bounding about like a young gazelle.

Uncle Nicky's going to be dead if he doesn't get a move on, isn't he? Yes, he is!

The Death of Stalin - Loyalty and Collective Beliefs in Leadership
Vyacheslav Molotov:
I've always been loyal to Stalin, always. These arrests were authorized by Stalin...but Stalin was also loyal to the collective leadership, and that is true loyalty...however, he also had an iron will, undeviating, strong. Could we not do the same, and stick to what we believed in?...No. It is stronger still to forge our own beliefs within the beliefs of the collective leadership...which I have now...done.
