The Fifth Element Quotes

Billy Oh, professor. professor. D-DON'T MOVE! I-I-I HAVE A GUN!

Priest Please understand. They are our friends.

Billy Friends? Father, they killed the professor. They're monsters!

Priest I'll explain everything. Billy...

Billy You're with them?!

Priest Billy, look at me, look at me. I am your friend.

Billy No.

Priest BILLY, LOOK AT ME! Please, put the gun down.

Priest Billy, no! Hurry! The wall is closing!

Mondoshawan Here is your mission: pass down our knowledge to the next priest just as it was passed down to you.

Priest I-I'll do as you command, but please, hurry! You're running out of time!

Mondoshawan Time, not important. Only life is important.

Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg It's nice to see you again, Father.

Father Vito Cornelius Ah, I remember you now. The so-called art dealer.

Zorg I'm glad you got your memory back. Because you're gonna need it. Where are the stones?

Cornelius I don't know. And even if I did know, I wouldn't tell somebody like you.

Zorg Why? What's wrong with me?

Cornelius I try to serve life. But you only…seem to want to destroy it.

Zorg Oh, Father, you're so wrong. Let me explain. Life, which you so nobly serve, comes from destruction, disorder and chaos. Take this empty glass. Here it is, peaceful, serene and boring. But if it is destroyed… Look at all these little things. So busy now. Notice how each one is useful. What a lovely ballet ensues, so full of form and color. Now, think about all those people that created them. Technicians, engineers, hundreds of people who'll be able to feed their children tonight so those children can grow up big and strong and have little teeny weeny children of their own, and so on and so forth. Thus, adding to the great chain…of life. You see, Father, by creating a little destruction, I'm actually encouraging life. In reality, you and I are in the same business. Cheers.

Cornelius Where's the robot to pat you in the back? Or the engineer? Or their children, maybe? There, you see how all your so-called power counts for absolutely nothing? How your entire empire of destruction comes crashing down. All because of one…little…cherry.

Zorg You saved my life, and in return, I'll spare yours... For now.

Priest Vito Cornelius You're a monster, Zorg.

Zorg ...I know. Torture who you have to. The President, I don't care. Just bring me those stones. You have one hour.

Korben Dallas Listen lady, I only speak two languages: English and bad English.

Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg This case is empty.

Father Vito Cornelius What do you mean, empty?

Zorg Empty. As in the opposite of full. This CASE is SUPPOSED to be FULL! ...Anyone care to explain?

Cornelius The guardians... gave the stones.. to someone they could trust... who-who another route... she's supposed to contact this person... in a hotel... and she's looking for the address. Easy.

Leeloo Dot.

David It's-it's planet Fhloston, in the Angel Constellation!

Cornelius We're saved.

Zorg I'm screwed!

Aknot You asked for a case. We brought you a case.

Zorg A CASE WITH FOUR STONES IN IT! NOT ONE OR TWO OR THREE, BUT FOUR! FOUR STONES! W-WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH AN EMPTY CASE?!

Aknot We are warriors, not merchants.

Zorg BUT YOU CAN STILL COUNT! Look, it's easy. Look at my fingers. Four stones, four crates . Zero stones, ZERO CRATES! Pack everything up! We're outta here!

Aknot We risked our lives! I believe a little compensation is in order.

Zorg Oh, so you are merchants after all. Leave them one crate... for the cause.

Leeloo You humans act so ]. Everything you create is used to destroy.

General Munro Any questions?

Korben Dallas Yeah. Just one. Why me? I retired six months ago. You remember?

Munro Three reasons. One: as a member of the elite special forces unit of the Federated Army, you are expert in the use of all major weapons and spacecraft needed for this mission. Two: of all the members of your unit, you were the most highly decorated.

Dallas And the third one?

Munro Of all the members of your unit, you're the only one left alive.

Leeloo Leeloo Dallas mul-ti-pass. Mul-ti-pass.

Korben Dallas Yeah, this is my wife, Leeloo.

Leeloo Mul-ti-pass.

Dallas Yeah, multipass, she knows it's a multipass. Leeloo Dallas. This is my wife.

Leeloo Mul-ti-pass.

Dallas We're newlyweds. Just met. You know how it is. We bumped into each other, sparks happen...

Leeloo Mul-ti-pass.

Dallas Yes, she knows it's a multipass! Anyways, we're in love.

Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg My dear Aknot, what about those two little planes you borrowed? Aknot, is that you? What an ugly face. It doesn't suit you. Take it off. Much better. Never be ashamed of who you are. You're warriors, be proud. So what if the Federal Government scattered your people into the wind? What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Your time for revenge is at hand. Voila! The ZF-1. It's light; handle's adjustable for easy carrying; good for righties and lefties; breaks down into four parts; undetectable by X-ray; ideal for quick discreet interventions. A word on firepower. Titanium recharger; 3000-round clip with bursts of 3 to 300. And with the replay button, another Zorg invention, it's even easier. One shot... ...and replay sends every following shot to the same location. And to finish the job, all the Zorg oldies-but-goldies. Rocket launcher... arrow launcher, with exploding or poisonous gas heads, very practical... our famous net launcher... the always-efficient flamethrower, my favorite... and for the grand finale, the all-new Ice-cube System'!

Korben Dallas What's your name?

Leeloo Leeloo Minaï Lekatariba-Lamina-Tchaï Ekbat De Sebat.

Dallas Good. That... that whole thing's your name, huh? Do you have, uh... a shorter name? Not short. Korben Dallas.

Leeloo ...Leeloo.

President Lindberg Major Dallas, I first would like to salute a warrior. You are a shining example of this army's might. In the name of the Federation and its territory—

Korben Dallas Mister President, Mister President. Any idea when you're gonna be getting to the point?

Lindberg Okay. There's a ball of fire 1,200 miles in diameter heading straight for Earth, and we have no idea how to stop it. That's the problem.

Dallas How much time do we have?

Scientist's aide If its speed remains constant, an hour and fifty-seven minutes.

Dallas I'll call you back in two hours.

Lindberg Hello? Hello? Hello?
