Fly, carpet, take me to where I would go.

The Cat from Outer Space - Lack of Parachutes Creates Shared Dilemma
Dr. Bartlett:
But I don't have a parachute!
Mr. Olympus:
Then you have a problem.
Mr. Stallwood:
But I don't have a parachute either!
Mr. Olympus:
Then you have the same problem.
Dr. Wilson:
You? That's you?
Jake:
Well, it isn't the mouse.
Dr. Wilson:
But your lips aren't moving! You're not... speaking.
Jake:
Thought transference. Nothing exceptional where I come from.

Fright Night - Declining Interest in Vampires and Horror Films
Peter Vincent:
I have just been fired because nobody wants to see vampire killers any more, or vampires either. Apparently all they want are demented madmen, running around in ski masks, hacking up young virgins.
Charley Brewster:
I believe in vampires.
Peter Vincent:
That's nice. If only there had been more of you, perhaps my ratings would've been higher.

Escape from the Planet of the Apes - Struggles of Trust and Survival
Cornelius:
Savages!! They are savages! Jabbing needles into my pregnant wife!
Zira:
I've done that, too, dear. And worse. Taylor thought we were savages at first.
Cornelius:
Did they make you tell them about Taylor, too?
Zira:
They made me tell them everything, Cornelius.- Brutes. Shall I tell you something? I'm glad I did.
Cornelius:
We can't live with lies. After this, I doubt we shall be allowed to live at all.
Zira:
Do you mean that? Oh. How long?
Cornelius:
A week. Maybe sooner. They treated you like dirt.

Escape from the Planet of the Apes - Memory Loss and Manipulation in Interrogation
Otto Hasslein:
That's your voice, isn't it?
Zira:
How can I tell? I- I don't even remember.
Cornelius:
Why don't you remember?
Zira:
Because Dr. Hasslein made me drunk!
Interrogator:
Why did you tell something to Dr. Hasslein when drunk... that you never told the commission when sober? Because you and your husband were frightened... for the safety of yourselves and your unborn child?
Zira:
I-I withheld nothing. Nobody asked me.
Interrogator:
But if somebody had asked?
Zira:
I should have said that chimpanzees... had no part in the destruction of Earth. Only the gorillas and the orangutans.
Interrogator: [[monkey]
What's the difference? You're all ]s.
Cornelius: [[archaeologist; [history]
Please! Do not use the word "monkey. " It is offensive to us. As an ], I had access to ] scrolls... which were kept secret from the masses. And I suspect that the weapon which destroyed Earth... was man's own invention. I do know this. One of the reasons for man's original downfall... was your peculiar habit of murdering one another. Man destroys man. Apes do not destroy apes.
Otto Hasslein:
Cornelius. This is not an interracial hassle, but a search for facts. We do not deny the possibility of man's decline and fall. All we want to find out is how apes rose.
Cornelius: [[dog]
Well, it began in our prehistory with the plague that fell upon ]s.
Zira: [[cats]
And ].
Cornelius:
Hundreds and thousands of them died. And hundreds and thousands of them had to be destroyed in order to prevent the spread of infection.
Zira:
There were dog bonfires.
Cornelius:
Yes. And by the time the plague was contained, man was without pets. Of course, for man, this was intolerable. I mean, he might kill his brother, but he could not kill his dog. So humans took primitive apes as pets.
Zira:
Primitive and dumb, but still twenty times more intelligent than dogs or cats.
Cornelius:
Correct. They were quartered in cages, but they lived and moved freely in human homes. They became responsive to human speech and, in the course of less than two centuries, they progressed from performing mere tricks to performing services.
Interrogator:
Nothing more or less than a well-trained sheepdog could do.
Cornelius:
Could a sheepdog cook, or clean the house, or do the marketing for the groceries with a list from its mistress, or wait on tables?
Zira:
Or, after three more centuries, turn the tables on their owners.
Hasslein:
How?
Cornelius:
They became alert to the concept of slavery. And as their numbers grew, to slavery's antidote which, of course, is unity. At first, they began assembling in small groups. They learned the art of corporate and militant action. They learned to refuse. At first, they just grunted their refusal. But then, on an historic day, which is commemorated by my species and fully documented in the sacred scrolls, there came Aldo. He did not grunt. He articulated. He spoke a word, a word which had been spoken to him time and again without number by humans. He said: "No".
Hasslein:
So that's how it all started.

Escape from the Planet of the Apes - A Divided Decision Among Friends
Cornelius:
Zira!
Zira:
Cornelius, I think we should tell them.
Cornelius:
No.
Zira:
But o-only to Lewis and Stevie.
Cornelius:
Oh, Zira.
Zira:
I have to be honest with someone. Cornelius, please. You tell them. Well, you see... we did know Colonel Taylor. We came to love him.
Lewis Dixon:
I don't understand what harm there could be in telling that to the commission.
Cornelius:
Where we come from, uh, apes did not love humans. They, uh, hunted them for sport... uh, much as you would animals.
Zira:
Yes. We used their bodies, alive and dead... experimentally for anatomical dissection and scientific research.
Lewis Dixon:
Well, uh, we do the same thing to animals. I mean, as a scientist, I sympathize... but, uh, I agree that that's a revelation... the masses would not take kindly to. I think you did the right thing in denying knowledge of Colonel Taylor.
Zira:
There was another reason.
Lewis Dixon:
What?
Zira:
They would have asked if he was still alive.
Lewis Dixon:
And is he?
Zira:
Oh, no, no, no, he can't be.
Lewis Dixon:
Well, how do you know?
Zira:
Because
Lewis Dixon:
Well?
Cornelius:
From the windows of the spaceship We saw the Earth... destroyed.

Escape from the Planet of the Apes - Apes Claim Ability to Speak in Inquiry
Lewis Dixon:
Uh Mr. Chairman, members of the commission... ladies and gentlemen... my name is Lewis Dixon, and I am the animal psychiatrist... who has been in charge of these two apes... since they came to the Los Angeles Zoo. My associate, Dr. Stephanie Branton, and I... are ready to answer your questions. What may astonish you is that, um... our chimpanzee friends are ready to answer your questions too. Not by signs, not by looks or movements... but by words.
Otto Hasslein:
Dr. Dixon, as a zoologist, I know and respect your work... but if you think you're gonna turn a presidential inquiry... into a ventriloquist's act, I have to inform you...
Lewis Dixon:
And I have to inform you, sir, that these two apes have acquired the power of speech.
Chairman of the Commission:
Come now, Doctor. You know as well as I do their brain system... is not developed in either the vocal or abstract-thinking area.
Lewis Dixon:
Yes, sir, but I repeat that they have the power of speech... and it is for you gentlemen to assess how far that power... can be exercised intelligently.
Chairman of the Commission:
Well, may we be told which is the female of the species? Did she rise as a reflex to you having indicated her... or in answer to my question?
Lewis Dixon:
That's for you to decide.
Chairman of the Commission:
Have you a name?
Zira:
Zira.
Chairman of the Commission:
Certainly she can articulate... which, in itself, is extraordinary! Uh, but, Dr. Dixon, are we to infer that "Zira" is her name... or, uh, some phrase in her own language?
Lewis Dixon:
Infer what you will, Mr. Chairman. I suggest you rephrase the question.
Chairman of the Commission:
What is your name?
Zira:
Zi-ra!
Chairman of the Commission:
One might as well be talking to a parrot.
Zira:
A parrot?
Chairman of the Commission:
Mechanical mimicry. Unique in an ape vocally, without a doubt... but, uh, does the other one talk?
Cornelius:
Only when she lets me.
Chairman of the Commission:
Dr. Hasslein?
Otto Hasslein:
No. Nothing.
Lewis Dixon:
Mr. Chairman.
Chairman of the Commission:
Uh, yes? What is the male's name, please?
Cornelius:
Cornelius.
Zira:
My lawfully wedded spouse.
Counciller:
Wedded?
Chairman of the Commission:
We'll take that up later, Your Eminence. Cornelius, do you and your lawfully wedded spouse... speak any language other than English?
Cornelius:
What is English? I speak the language taught to me by my father and mother... who were taught by their fathers and mothers before them. It has been the language of our ancestors for nearly 2,000 years. As to its origins, who can be sure? The gorillas and orangutans of our community... believe that God created the ape in his own image. And that our language
Zira:
Nonsense! Cornelius, as an intellectual, you know damned well... the gorillas are a bunch of militaristic nincompoops... and the orangutans a bunch of blinkered, pseudoscientific geese! As to humans, I've dissect I- I've examined thousands of them... and until now, I've only discovered two who could talk in my life. God knows who taught them.
Cornelius:
Where we come from... apes talk. Humans are dumb.
Chairman of the Commission:
Where do you come from, Cornelius?
Cornelius:
I'm not sure.
Zira:
Dr. Milo was sure.
Chairman of the Commission:
Oh.
Cornelius:
Dr. Milo was a genius well in advance of his time. When the spacecraft first landed on our seaboard... it was Dr. Milo who salvaged it. He studied it and, uh, half understood it. Half? Was half enough? It was enough for us to escape when war became inevitable. Enough for Dr. Milo to be murdered in your zoo. Enough for my wife and I to be here now.
Chairman of the Commission:
From where, Cornelius?
Cornelius:
I told you. I'm not sure.
Chairman of the Commission:
Maybe the female knows.
Zira:
Of course the female knows! We came from your future! That doesn't make any sense. It's the only thing that does.
Otto Hasslein:
Mr. Chairman.
Chairman of the Commission:
Yes? cornelius, you spoke of war.
Otto Hasslein:
War between whom?
Cornelius:
The gorillas and whoever lives- lived.
Zira:
Will live.
Chairman of the Commission:
Who won the war?
Cornelius:
I don't know. Chimpanzees are pacifists. We stayed at home.
Chairman of the Commission:
But you left before the war had ended.
Councillor:
In a spaceship.
Cornelius:
Which Dr. Milo learned to navigate. Correct.
Otto Hasslein:
Cornelius. Did you know a Colonel Taylor?
Cornelius:
No. Is he a soldier?
Zira:
Look, we are peaceful creatures. We are happy to be here. May we be unchained?

Escape from the Planet of the Apes - Time Travel and Confusion in a Cage
Zira:
This cage stinks of gorilla. Cornelius, where are we?
Cornelius:
What's happened?
Milo:
I know where we are. I know what has happened. In some fashion and I lack the intellect to know precisely how. We have traveled from Earth's future to Earth's past.
Cornelius:
But we saw the Earth destroyed.
Milo:
And Earth will be destroyed, just as we saw it. Only since seeing it, we have passed through... a backward disturbance in time. Did you notice the date meter clicking down... after the shock wave hit our ship?
Cornelius:
Yes.
Cornelius:
We have returned to Earth nearly 2,000 years before its destruction. That is another reason for us to keep silent. Our human captors will not be edified to learn... that one day their world will crack like an egg and burn to a cinder... because of an ape war of aggression. Apes, at this instant in time... cannot yet talk. For the moment, we should follow their example.

We are not your children, Caesar. We have a destiny too... as equals.. respecting each other, living together with love.

Battle for the Planet of the Apes - The Challenge of Peaceful Coexistence
Lisa:
Caesar, on the night of the fires... you swore an oath|that in the future... apes and humans would live together|in kindness and peace. Why are you now making every sort of preparation to break that oath?
Caesar:
Because unlike the humans in our city.. those in the forbidden city|are mad... mad enough not to want peace and friendship... but enmity and war.
Lisa:
Did they tell you that?
Caesar:
Oh, yes. Yes. By opening fire on us without giving us a chance to explain.
Lisa:
You were trespassing on their territory.
Caesar:
But, Lisa, we didn't know the city was inhabited.
Caesar:
Lisa, you didn't see them They're... Oh... They're malformed. Like the freaks in your foster father's circus? Were they mad?
Cornelius:
What's malformed?
Lisa:
Cornelius, go to bed.
Cornelius:
But I'm giving Riki his water.
Caesar:
Lisa, freaks are different. These humans are the end product.. of nuclear radiation. They are mutant and they're mad.

Battle for the Planet of the Apes - Council Meeting on Forbidden City Expedition
Caesar:
My friends, I have convened... this extraordinary meeting of the council... in order that I may report upon an action... which I deemed necessary a reconnaissance expedition to the forbidden city... with Virgil and MacDonald as my aides.
Aldo:
Why MacDonald? Why not a soldier?
Caesar:
Because we went in peace... to what we thought would be a dead city But in case there were some survivors.. we took MacDonald with us so that he could parley with them... and secure permission for our search. Survivors there are... maimed... mutated.. hostile and human.
Aldo:
Did the humans follow you here?
Caesar:
We saw no sign of it... but we must prepare for the day|when they may come out of the city... when they may come to find us
Aldo:
No humans in council!
Gorillas:
No humans in council! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
Caesar:
Yes! They are here|because I sent for them. Now that we know the danger... we need their help|and their counsel.
Gorillas:
No! No! No!
Caesar:
Yes!
Aldo:
Come. We shall not sit in council with humans.
Caesar:
Now, let us reason together... and make plans.

Battle for the Planet of the Apes - The Nature of Time and Choices
Caesar:
No wonder all of mankind thirsted for my blood... and wanted my birth aborted. In the year 3950, apes will destroy the Earth.
Virgil:
Not apes, gorillas. Besides, that's only one future.
Caesar:
How can there be more than one?
Virgil:
You remember the old motorways? I believe that time is like an endless motorway... with an infinite number of lanes all running from the past into the future. It follows that a driver will try to change his lanes... and change his future. If you left this room right now... you might wind up shot dead. If you left a minute later, you might survive. It's a blind choice.. but you can change lanes.
Caesar:
I know what it is I want to change.

MacDonald:
Which may be sooner than you think.
Caesar:
You are such a pessimist! Or a prophet. Now that apes are at the helm... Earth will sail safely through space|until the end of time... and Virgil says time has no end. So, you see, I cannot believe you.
MacDonald:
Would you believe it|if you heard it... from the lips of your own parents?
Caesar:
Are my parents alive?
MacDonald:
No, but their images and their voices are.
Caesar:
MacDonald, when you talk about my parents... please do not speak in riddles. I cannot see them.I cannot hear them. Armando's only told me they came out of the future. They cannot give me knowledge.
MacDonald:
Caesar, you can see them. You can hear them...and they can give you knowledge.
Caesar:
How?
MacDonald:
Under the dead city where we once lived... in the archives near the old command post... there are tapes-sealed tapes- Of Cornelius and Zira... being examined by officials of the American government When my brother was Governor Breck's assistant, he told me about them. I know where they are... and I know that they concern Earth's future, from which your parents came.
Caesar:
But the city was flattened. The bomb left nothing.
MacDonald:
Except, I suspect... the archive section. Indeed, many sections of the underground city... were designed to survive the impact... of a 10-megaton over-blast.
Caesar:
Well, then the tapes and pictures of my parents are still down there Oh... Oh, MacDonald... I want to see what they look like. I suppose every orphan does. I want to hear... what they thought and knew.

How Green Was My Valley - Hope and Hardship in the Valley
Huw Morgan: [The colliery gates are closed by guards, leaving some of the men on the outside and shut out.]
Then the strike was settled - with the help of Mr. Gruffydd and my father. Work again. Work, to wipe out the memory of idleness and hardship. The men were happy going up the hill that morning. But not all of them. For there were too many now for the jobs open, and some learned that never again would there be work for them in their own Valley.

Huw Morgan:
Twenty-two weeks the men were out, as the strike moved into winter. It was strange to go out into the street and find the men there in the daytime. It had a feeling of fright in it. And always the mood of the men grew uglier as empty bellies and desperation began to conquer reason. Any man who was not their friend became their enemy. They knew that my father had opposed the strike and now it was they who opposed him.

After dinner, when dishes had been washed, the box was brought to the table, for the spending money to be handed out. No one in our Valley had ever seen a bank.

My father used to say that money was made to be spent, just as men spend their strength and brains in earning it - and as willingly - but always with a purpose.

It is the honorable badge of the coal miner - and I envied it on my father and grown-up brothers. Scrub and scrub, and Mr. Coal would lie there and laugh at you.

How Green Was My Valley - Reflections on Memory and Loss in the Valley
Huw Morgan:
I am packing my belongings in the shawl my mother used to wear when she went to the market. And I'm going from my valley. And this time, I shall never return. I am leaving behind me my fifty years of memory. Memory. Strange that the mind will forget so much of what only this moment has passed, and yet hold clear and bright the memory of what happened years ago - of men and women long since dead. Yet who shall say what is real and what is not? Can I believe my friends all gone when their voices are still a glory in my ears? No. And I will stand to say no and no again, for they remain a living truth within my mind. There is no fence nor hedge round Time that is gone. You can go back and have what you like of it, if you can remember. So I can close my eyes on my Valley as it is today - and it is gone - and I see it as it was when I was a boy. Green it was, and possessed of the plenty of the earth. In all Wales, there was none so beautiful. Everything I ever learnt as a small boy came from my father, and I never found anything he ever told me to be wrong or worthless. The simple lessons he taught me are as sharp and clear in my mind as if I had heard them only yesterday. In those days, the black slag - the waste of the coalpits - had only begun to cover the side of our hill, not yet enough to mar the countryside nor blacken the beauty of our village. For the colliery had only begun to poke its skinny black fingers through the green.

By the slave's right to punish his persecutors.

Caesar:
Slightly?! What you have seen here today, apes on the five continents will be imitating tomorrow!

Caesar:
The king is dead. Long live the king! Tell me, Breck, before you die, how do we differ from the dogs and cats you and your kind used to love? Why did you turn us from pets into slaves?
Breck:
Because your kind were once our ancestors. Man was born of the ape. There's still an ape curled up inside of every man, the beast that must be whipped into submission, the savage that has to be shackled in chains. You are that beast, Caesar. You taint us. You...you poison our guts. When we hate you, we're hating the dark side of ourselves.

They won't learn to be kind until we force them to. We can't do that until we are free...by the only means left to us - revolution. We cannot be free until we have power. How else can we achieve it?

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes - The Rise of Intelligent Simians
Armando:
(referring to the dogs and cats) They all died within a few months, eight years ago. Every dog and cat in the entire world. It was like a plague. The disease that killed them was a mysterious virus brought back from outer space by one of the astronauts.
Caesar:
Didn't the disease affect humans?
Armando:
No, no. We were immune. And so, it was discovered, were simians, even the smallest ones. That's how it all began. Humans wanting little household pets to replace the ones they had lost. Then, when people realized how quick they were to learn, how easy to train, the pets became larger, and larger, until now.
Caesar:
It's monstrous.
Armando:
Now you understand why I've kept you away.

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes - The Danger of Unrecognized Evolution
Armando:
After twenty years, you've picked up evolved habits from me. That could be dangerous...even fatal.
Caesar:
Armando, I don't understand.
Armando:
Listen to me, Caesar. There can be only one talking chimpanzee on Earth. The child of the two talking apes, Cornelius and Zira, who came to us years ago out of the future and were brutally murdered for fear that one very distant day apes might dominate the human race.
Caesar:
Yeah, but outside of you, nobody even knows I exist.
Armando:
And we must keep it that way for the fear remains. The mere fact of your existence would be regarded as a great threat to mankind.

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes - A Call for Compassion and Unity
Caesar:
But now...now we will put away our hatred. Now we will put down our weapons. We have passed through the night of the fires, and those who were our masters are now our servants. And we, who are not human, can afford to be humane. Destiny is the will of God, and if it is man's destiny to be dominated, it is God's will that he be dominated with compassion, and understanding. So, cast out your vengeance. Tonight, we have seen the birth of the Planet of the Apes!!

Conquest of the Planet of the Apes - Caesar's Vision of Future Rebellion
Caesar:
Where there is fire, there is smoke. And in that smoke, from this day forward, my people will crouch, and conspire, and plot, and plan for the inevitable day of man's downfall, the day when he finally and self-destructively turns his weapons against his own kind. The day of the writing in the sky, when your cities lie buried under radioactive rubble! When the sea is a dead sea, and the land is a wasteland, out of which I will lead my people from their captivity! And we will build our own cities, in which there will be no place for humans, except to serve our ends! And we shall found our own armies, our own religion, our own dynasty! And that day is upon you...NOW!!

There's your Minister of Science; honor bound to expand the frontiers of knowledge.

Take it easy, you saved me from this fanatic, maybe I can return the favor!

Planet of the Apes - The Warning Against Humanity's Destructive Nature
Cornelius: [''reading from the 29th scroll, sixth verse, of Ape Law'']
Beware the beast man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport, or lust, or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.
