Consequences of Selling One's Soul
Inmate:
What are you in for, brother?
Elliot:
Eternity.
Inmate:
Oooh. You must've done some really bad shit.
Elliot:
The worst— I sold my soul.
Inmate:
Well, I hope you got something good for it.
Elliot:
Actually, I got nothing for it.
Inmate:
Sounds like a really bad deal, if you ask me.
Elliot: [glances over]
I'm not asking you.
Inmate:
Doesn't matter. You can't sell your soul. It doesn't really belong to you in the first place. No way, no how.
Elliot:
Is that so? Then who does it belong to?
Inmate: [looks straight at Elliot]
It belongs to God: that universal spirit that animates and binds all things in existence. The Devil's gonna try and confuse you, but that's her gig. In the end, you're gonna see clear to who you are and what you're here to do. Now, you're gonna make some mistakes along the way. Everybody does. But if you just open up your heart, and open up your mind, you'll get it.
Elliot:
Who are you?
Inmate:
Just a friend brother. Just a really good friend.

You can't read that, that's private stuff!

Elliot Richards:
What?
The Devil:
Kidding.

Exploring Temptation and Human Desires
Elliot Richards:
Oh, yeah. You've been a really big help so far.
The Devil:
I know. I've been really naughty, haven't I? Maybe a good spanking's in order?
Elliot Richards:
Is that all you ever think about? Do you think everything is about sex?
The Devil:
No, of course not! I mean, there's greed, gluttony, sloth, anger, vanity, envy...

A Wish for Emotional Sensitivity
Elliot:
I wish to be the most sensitive man in the world. Oh, wait! I wish I were the most emotionally sensitive man in the world.
The Devil:
Damn. I was hoping you wouldn't catch that. I could've had a lot of fun with that one.

The Significance of Seven Wishes
The Devil:
Paragraph one states that I, the Devil, a not-for-profit cooperation, with offices in Purgatory, Hell, and Los Angeles, will give you seven wishes to use as you see fit.
Elliot Richards:
Seven? Why not eight?
The Devil:
Why not six? I don't know. Seven just sounds right.

The Value of the Useless

It's like your appendix. You'll never even miss it.

The Devil:
Oh, aren't you the clever one?
