Ray Arnold: [Repeated line] Hold on to your butts.

Dennis Nedry: [Met in jungle by dilophosaurus about to kill him] Yeah...yeah, that's nice. Gotta go!

Dennis Nedry: Don't get cheap on me, Dodgson. That was Hammond's mistake.

Lex Murphy: It's a UNIX system, I know this!

John Hammond: [To Dennis Nedry] Dennis, our lives are in your hands, and you have Butterfingers?!

John Hammond: [Watching Ian Malcolm from a security camera] I really hate that man.

John Hammond: [repeated line] Spared no expense.

John Hammond: [to Donald Gennaro, referring to Ian Malcolm] I bring scientists, you bring a rockstar.

John Hammond: Doctor Grant, my dear Doctor Sattler, welcome...to Jurassic Park.

Robert Muldoon: Dammit, even Nedry knew better than to mess with the raptor fences!

Robert Muldoon: They should all be destroyed.

Robert Muldoon: [when trying to save a worker from the raptor] Shoot her! SHOOT HER!!

Robert Muldoon: [seconds before being eaten by a raptor] Clever girl.

Ian Malcolm: [after he, Muldoon and Sattler escape the'' T. rex ''in a Jeep] Think they'll have that on the tour?

Ian Malcolm: Must go faster…

Ian Malcolm: Boy, do I hate being right all the time.

Ian Malcolm: [looking at the'' Triceratops ''droppings] That is one big pile of shit.

Ian Malcolm: [referring to Hammond after ''finally'' seeing a dinosaur] You did it. You crazy son of a bitch, you did it.

Ian Malcolm: Now, eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your, on your dinosaur tour, right? Hello?

Ian Malcolm: [[King Kong] What have they got in there, ]?

Ian Malcolm: I'm simply saying that life, uh…finds a way.

Ian Malcolm: John, the kind of control you're attempting simply is…it's not possible. If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh…well, there it is.

Ian Malcolm: Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could that they didn’t stop to think if they should.

Dr. Alan Grant: [on the Triceratops] Ellie, this one was always my favorite when I was a kid. And now I've seen one, it's the most beautiful thing I ever saw.

Dr. Alan Grant: Hammond, after some consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park.

Dr. Alan Grant: [[Tyrannosaurus|T. rex] ] doesn't want to be fed. He wants to hunt. Can't just suppress 65 million years of gut instinct.

Dr. Alan Grant: The world has just changed so radically, and we're all running to catch up. I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but look… Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution, have just been suddenly thrown back into the mix together. How can we possibly have the slightest idea what to expect?

Dr. Alan Grant: [stunned after seeing the dinosaurs for the first time] They're moving in herds. They do move in herds.

Dr. Alan Grant: [seeing the Brachiosaur for the first time] Uh…it's…it's a dinosaur!

Dr. Alan Grant: [responding to an unimpressed 10-year-old; [Tyrannosaurus|T. rex; [Velociraptor; brings two fingers together with a whooshing sound; beat; produces a claw; makes slashing motions below the child's chest; above the groin] Now try to imagine yourself in the Cretaceous Period. You get your first look at this "six foot turkey" as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like ]; he'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not ]. You stare at him…and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side. From the other two raptors…you didn't even know were there. Because Velociraptors a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this: a six-inch retractable claw, like a razor, on the middle toe. He doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion, oh no…he slashes at you here or here… or maybe across the belly, spilling your intestines. The point is, you are alive when they start to eat you. So, you know…try to show a little respect.
