Memorable Quotes from Richard Burton
48 quotesThe Cost of Passion and Healing
Martin Dysart
Passion, you see, can be destroyed by a doctor. It cannot be created. You won't gallop anymore, Alan, the horses will be quite safe. You can save your money each week and change that scooter for a car. You'll spend glorious weekends grooming that. You'll pop round to the betting shops and put fifty pence on a nag, forgetting they ever meant anything more to you than bearers of little profits and little losses. You will, however, be without pain; almost completely without...pain.. and now... for me... it never stops... the voice of Equus, out of the cave.

Emperor Tiberius
Tell me, what was your impression of Pilate?
Marcellus Gallio
It's not my place to...
Emperor Tiberius
I'm asking you. Did you find him capable?
Marcellus Gallio
Yes sire, he's considered a good administrator.
Emperor Tiberius
Stern, as befits a Roman governor?
Marcellus Gallio
I'm sure of that, sire.
Emperor Tiberius
Just?
Marcellus Gallio
I - I can't say.
Emperor Tiberius
Why not? Surely you can give me some sort of an answer? Tell me, tribune - what happened out there

The Dual Nature of Normalcy
Martin Dysart
All right! The normal is the good smile in a child's eyes. There's also the dead stare in a million adults. It both sustains and kills, like a god. It is the ordinary made beautiful, it is also the average made lethal. Normal is the indispensable murderous God of health and I am his priest.

Tension and Frustration in Late-Night Conversations

Nick

George
You're testy.
Nick
Yes.

The Nature of Humor in Relationships
Martha
I bust a gut! George didn't think it was funny at all.
[laughs uproariously, then settles]
George
Martha thinks that unless you, as she demurely puts it, "bust a gut", you're not amused, you know. Unless you're… carrying on like a hyena, you're not having any fun.

And your promise, have you forgotten that too?

To marry me.

Was I drunk?
Diana
That's not very flattering, Marcellus.
Marcellus Gallio
Oh, I - I mean, if you'd tell me when I was supposed to have said this - the circumstances...
Diana
Oh, I remember them perfectly. I'd cut my finger, and I cried. And then you took the dagger and cut your own finger to show that it didn't really hurt, and then you kissed me, and I stopped crying - and then you promised to marry me when we grew up.
Marcellus Gallio
Dianna! Where have your freckles gone?
Diana

Marcellus Gallio
Oh, I loved every one of them.
Diana
Then I'm sorry I lost them.

The Intersection of Civilization and Disillusionment
George
Take the trouble to construct a civilization, to build a society based on the principles of, uh… of principle.
Nick
Honey!
George
You make government and art and realize that they are, must be, both the same. You bring things to the saddest of all points, to the point where there is something to lose. Then, all at once, through all the music, through all the sensible sounds of men building, attempting, comes the Dies Irae. And what is it? What does the trumpet sound? "Up yours".

Oh no! No, you mustn't! Martha is changing, and Martha is not changing for me! Martha hasn't changed for me in years! If Martha is changing, that means we're going to be here for days. You're being accorded an honor. You mustn't forget that Martha is the daughter of our beloved boss. She is his right… arm, heh heh.

Martha
What sort of talk?
Nick
Well, now.

Struggling with Unknowable Complexities of Understanding
Martin Dysart
The thing is, I'm wearing that horse's head myself, all reined up in old language and old assumptions, straining to jump clean hoofed onto a new track of being that only I suspect is there. I can't see it, because my educated, average head is being held at the wrong angle. I can't jump, because the bit forbids it and my own basic force - my horsepower, if you like - is too little. The only thing I know for sure is this: A horse's head is finally unknowable to me. Yet I handle childrens heads, which I presume to be more complicated, at least in the area of my chief concern. In a way, it has nothing to do with this boy - the doubts have been there for years, piling up steadily in this dreary place - it's the extremity of this case that's made them active. I know extremity is the point. All the same, whatever the reasons, these doubts are not just vaguely worrying, but intolerable.

Power and Privilege in Roman Society
Marcellus Gallio
(first lines) ], Master of the Earth, in the 18th year of the Emperor ]. Our legions stand guard on the boundaries of civilization, from the foggy coasts of northern seas to the ancient rivers of ], the finest fighting machines in history. The people of thirty lands send us tribute - their gold and silk, ivory and ], and their proudest sons to be our slaves. We have reached the point where there are more slaves in Rome than citizens. Some say that we are only looters of what others have created, that we create nothing ourselves. But we have made gods. Fine gods and goddesses. Who ]... and ]. ]... and ]. For the power lies not in their hands of marble, but in ours of flesh. We, the nobles of Rome, are free to live only for our own pleasure. Could any god offer us more? Today we traffic in human souls - the slave market is crowded because the old Emperor's heir and regent, the young ], is coming to buy ]. He probably will not be pleased to see me.

Confrontation and Threat in a Turbulent Relationship
Martha

George
You try and I'll beat you at your own game.
Martha
Is that a threat, George, huh?
George

Martha

George

The Nature of Power and Control
O'Brien
Obedience is not enough. Power is inflicting pain and humiliation; otherwise, you cannot be sure. Power is tearing human minds apart, and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing. Power is not a means, it is an end. In our world, there will only be triumph and self-abasement. Everything else, we shall destroy. The past is forbidden. Why? Because when we can cut man from his own past, then we can cut him from his family, his children, other men. There is no loyalty, except loyalty to the Party. There is no love, except love of Big Brother. All competing pleasures, we will destroy. If you want a vision of the future, Winston, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever.

The Complexity of Healing and Identity
Martin Dysart
Alright, I take it away, what then? He'd feel himself acceptable, what then? Do you think feelings like his can be simply re-attached, just like plasters stuck on other objects we select? I mean, look at him! My desire might be to make of this boy an ardent husband, a caring citizen, a worshipper of abstract and unifying God; my achievement, however, is more likely to make a ghost. I heal the rash on his body, I'll erase the welts cut into his mind by flying manes and when that's done I'll put him on a metal scooter and send him puttering off into the concrete world and he'll never touch hide again. Hopefully he'll feel nothing at his fork but approved flesh, I doubt, however, with much passion!

The Challenges of Marriage and Opportunity
George
Let me tell you a secret, baby — there are easier things in this world, if you, uh… happen to be teaching at a university, there are easier things than being married to the daughter of the president of that university. There are easier things in this world.
Martha
It should be an extraordinary opportunity. For some men, it would be the chance of a lifetime.
George
There are, believe me, easier things in this world.
Martha
Some men would give their right arm for the chance!
George
Alas, Martha, in reality, it works out that the sacrifice is of a somewhat more private portion of the anatomy.

A swamp! Hey, swamp! Hey swampy!
[to George]
George
Yes, Martha? Can I get you something?
Martha
Ah… well, sure! You can, um, light my cigarette, if you're of a mind to.
George
No. There are limits. I mean, a man can put up with only so much without he descends a rung or two on the, uh, old evolutionary ladder, which is up your line. Now, I will, uh, hold your hand when it's dark and you're afraid of the boogeyman, and I will tote your gin bottles out after midnight so no one can see, but I will not light your cigarette. And that, as they say, is that.

Struggling with the Darkness of Existence
Martin Dysart
How can I? In an ultimate sense, I cannot know what I do in this place, but I do ultimate things, irreversible things and I, I stand in the dark with a blade in my hand, striking at heads, I need, more desperately than my children need me, a way of seeing in the dark; what way is this? what dark is this? I cannot call it "ordained of God" — I cannot go so far. I will however, pay it so much homage. There is now, in my mouth, this sharp chain. And it never comes out.

The Complexity of Desire in Equus
Martin Dysart
Afterwards, he says, they always embrace. The animal digs his sweaty brow into his cheek and they stand in the dark for an hour, like a necking couple. And of all nonsensical things, I keep thinking about the horse - not the boy, the horse - and what he might be trying to do. I keep seeing the huge head, kissing him with its chained mouth nudging through the metal, some desire absolutely irrelevant of filling its belly or propagating its own kind. What desire could this be? Not to stay a horse any longer? Not to remain reined up forever in those particular genetic strings? Is it possible, at moments we can't imagine, a horse can add its sufferings together, the non-stop jerks and jabs that are its daily life, and turn them into grief? What use is grief to a horse? You see, I'm lost. What use, I should be asking, are questions like these to an overworked psychiatrist in a provincial hospital? They're worse than useless - they are, in fact, subversive.

The Nature of Resistance in a Totalitarian Society
O'Brien
There are thought criminals who maintain that the resistance is not real. Believe me, Winston, it is very real. Perhaps you are not familiar with how it operates.
Winston Smith
I am attentive to the news.
O'Brien
Indeed. Then perhaps you imagine a huge network of conspirators prepared to commit any atrocity to weaken and demoralise the order of our society. The reality is infinitely more subtle. If ] himself fell into the hands of the Thought Police, he could not give them a list of his agents. Such a list does not exist. They are not an organisation in the sense we know. Nothing holds it together but an idea. Individually, they cheat, forge, blackmail, corrupt children, spread disease and prostitution, in the name of spreading knowledge from generation to generation, until... in a thousand years...
