Prison guard:
Tell me something sister, what is a nun doing in a place like this? Shouldn't you be teaching children? Didn't you know what this man has done? How he killed them kids?

Sister Helen Prejean:
What he was involved with was evil. I don't condone it. I just don't see the sense of killing people to say that killing people's wrong.

Prison guard:
You know what the Bible say, 'An eye for an eye'.

Sister Helen Prejean:
You know what else the Bible ask for death as a punishment? For adultery, prostitution, homosexuality, trespass upon sacred grounds, profane in a sabbath and contempt to parents.

Prison guard:
I ain't gonna get no Bible quote from no nun cause I'm gonna lose.

Sister Helen Prejean:

Keating:
"Seize the day. Gather ye rosebuds while ye may." Why does the writer use these lines?

Charlie:
Because he's in a hurry.

Keating:
No. Ding! Thank you for playing anyway. Because we are food for worms, lads. Because, believe it or not, each and every one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die.

Keating:
Language was developed for one endeavor, and that is - Mr. Anderson? Come on, are you a man or an amoeba? [pause] Mr. Perry?

Neil:
To communicate.

Keating:
No! To woo women!

McAllister:
You take a big risk by encouraging them to be artists, John. When they realize they're not Rembrandts, Shakespeares or Mozarts, they'll hate you for it.

Keating:
We're not talking artists, George, we're talking freethinkers.

McAllister:
Freethinkers at seventeen?

Keating:
Funny — I never pegged you as a cynic.

McAllister:
Not a cynic, a realist. "Show me the heart unfettered by foolish dreams, and I'll show you a happy man."

Keating:
"But only in their dreams can men be truly free. 'Twas always thus, and always thus will be."

McAllister:
Tennyson?

Keating:
No, Keating.

Keating:
The picture of Uncle Walt up there. What does he remind you of? Don't think. Answer. Go on.

[Keating begins to circle around Todd]

Todd:
A m-m-madman.

Keating:
What kind of madman? Don't think about it. Just answer again.

Todd:
A c-crazy madman.

Keating:
No, you can do better than that. Free up your mind. Use your imagination. Say the first thing that pops into your head, even if it's total gibberish. Go on, go on.

Todd:
Uh, uh, a sweaty-toothed madman.

Keating:
Good God, boy, there's a poet in you, after all. There, close your eyes. Close your eyes. Close 'em. Now, describe what you see.

[Keating puts his hands over Todd's eyes and they begin to slowly spin around]

Todd:
Uh, I-I close my eyes.

Keating:
Yes?

Todd Uh, and this image floats beside me.

Keating:
A sweaty-toothed madman?

Todd:
A sweaty-toothed madman with a stare that pounds my brain.

Keating:
Oh, that's excellent. Now, give him action. Make him do something.

Todd:
H-His hands reach out and choke me.

Keating:
That's it. Wonderful. Wonderful.

[Keating removes his hands from Todd but Todd keeps his eyes closed]

Todd:
And, and all the time he's mumbling.

Keating:
What's he mumbling?

Todd:
M-Mumbling, "Truth. Truth is like, like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold."

[The students begin to laugh and Todd opens his eyes. Keating quickly gestures for him to close them again]

Keating:
Forget them, forget them. Stay with the blanket. Tell me about that blanket.

Todd:
Y-Y-Y-You push it, stretch it, it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it, it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying to the moment we leave dying, it will just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream.

[Todd opens his eyes. The class is silent. Then they applaud Todd's impressive delivery.]

Keating:
[whispering to Todd] Don't you forget this.

[Neil reads from Henry David Thoreau's Walden]

Neil:
"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately, I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, To put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die discover that I had not lived."

Dalton:
I'll second that.

Neil:
"To put to rout all that was not life; and not, when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived."

Mr. Nolan:
(At Neil's ceremony) The death of Neil Perry is a tragedy. He was a fine student. One of Welton's best. And he will be missed. We've contacted each of your parents to explain the situation. Naturally, they're all quite concerned. At the request of Neil's family, I intend to conduct a thorough inquiry into this matter. Your cooperation is expected.

Cameron:
What's going on, guys?

Charlie:
You finked, didn't you, Cameron?

Cameron:
Finked? I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Charlie:
You told Nolan about everything about that club is what I'm talking about!

Cameron:
Look, in case you hadn't heard, Dalton, there's something called an honor code at this school, alright?! If a teacher asks you a question, you tell the truth, or you're expelled.

(Outraged, Charlie bolts towards Cameron to attack him, but the others hold him back.)

Charlie:
He's a rat! He's in it up to his eyes, so he rattled to save himself!

Knox:
Don't touch him, Charlie. You do, and you're out.

Charlie:
I'm out anyway!

Knox:
You don't know that, not yet.

Cameron:
He's right there, Charlie. And if you guys are smart, you will do EXACTLY what I did and cooperate! They're not after us! We're the victims! Us and Neil.

Charlie:
What's that mean? Who are they after?

Cameron:
Why, Mr. Keating, of course! The "Captain" himself! I mean, you guys didn't really think he could avoid responsibility, did you?

Charlie:
Mr. Keating responsible for Neil? Is that what they're saying?

Cameron:
Well, who else do you think, dumbass?! The administration?! Mr. Perry?! I mean, Mr. Keating put us up to all this crap, didn't he?! If it wasn't for Mr. Keating, Neil would be cozying up in his room right now, studying his chemistry, and dreaming of being called doctor!

Todd:
That is not true, Cameron! You know that! He didn't put us up to anything! And Neil loved acting!

Cameron:
Believe what you want, but I say let Keating fry! I mean, why ruin our lives?!

(Charlie, out of rage, slugs Cameron. The others restrain him again.)

Cameron:
You've just signed your expulsion papers, "Nuwanda"! And if the rest of you were smart, you'll do exactly what I did! They know everything anyway. You can't save Keating, but you can save yourselves.

Greg Stillson:
Do it, General.

Five Star General:
You're insane... I won't...

Greg Stillson:
DO IT! Put your hand on the scanning screen, and you'll go down in history with me.

Five Star General:
As what? The world's greatest mass murderers?

Greg Stillson:
You cowardly bastard! You're not the voice of the people, I am the voice of the people! The people speak through me, not you! It came to me while I slept, sonny... my destiny. In the middle of the night it came to me - I must get up NOW, RIGHT NOW, and fulfil my destiny! Now you put your goddamn hand on that scanning screen, or I'll hack it off and put it on for you! DO IT!

Jeez, you should thank me. Apparently, I made you immortal. I'm actually quite jealous.

Wade:
Do you happen to know a Meghan "Orflowsky"- gettin' that right? "Orflasky"? "Orlovsy"? [Jeremy nods] Yeah? Good. 'Cause she knows you. Jeremy, I belong to a group of guys who take a dime to beat a fella down. And little Meghan, she's not made of money, but lucky for her, I got a soft spot.

Jeremy:
[nervously] I'm, uh–

Wade:
A stalker. [points his knife at Jeremy] Threats hurt, Jer, though not nearly as much as serrated steel. So keep away from Meghan. Cool?

Jeremy:
Yes– Yes, sir.

Wade:
Then we're done. [puts the knife away]

Jeremy:
Wait, we... we are?

Wade:
Yeah, totally done! [to Merchant, as they both start laughing] You should have seen your face!

Merchant:
I didn't know what to do. I was so scared!

Wade:
Soft spot, remember? [suddenly grabs Jeremy by the neck and throws him up against a wall] You even look in her general direction again, and you'll learn in the worst of ways that I have some hard spots, too. [pauses for a moment] That came out wrong. Or did it? [kisses Jeremy on the cheek as he whimpers]

Vanessa:
Hey, hands off the merchandise.

Wade:
Merchandise, huh? So, you, uh... bump fuzzies for money?

Vanessa:
Yup.

Wade:
Rough childhood?

Rougher than yours. Daddy left before I was born.

Wade:
Daddy left before I was conceived.

Vanessa:
Ever had a cigarette put out on your skin?

Wade:
Where else do you put one out?

Vanessa:
I was molested.

Wade:
Me too. Uncle.

Vanessa:
Uncles. They took turns.

Wade:
I watched my own birthday party through the keyhole of a locked closet, which also happens to be my–

Vanessa:
Your bedroom. Lucky, I slept in a dishwasher box.

Wade:
[gasps] You had a dishwasher? I didn't even know sleep. It was pretty much 24/7 ball gags, brownie mix, and clown porn.

Vanessa:
[laughs] Who would do such a thing?

Wade:
Hopefully you, later tonight? Hey, what can I get for, [looks at his wallet] uh, $275 and a... Yogurtland rewards card?

Vanessa:
Baby, about 48 minutes of whatever the fuck you want. [takes the rewards card, sticks it in Wade's mouth] And a low-fat dessert.

Hey, is Ajax your actual name? Because it sound's suspiciously made up. What is it, really? Kevin? Bruce? Scott? Mitch? The Rickster? [speaks in British accent] Is it Basil Fawlty?

Ajax:
Oh, joke away. One thing that never survives this place is a sense of humor.

Wade:
We'll see about that.

Ajax:
I suppose we will. [turns to Angel] He's all yours. [leaves]

Wade:
Oh, come on! You're gonna leave me all alone here with less-angry Rosie O'Donnell?

[Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead set out to apprehend Deadpool]

Colossus:
I've given Deadpool every chance to join us, but he'd rather act like a child. A heavily armed child. When will he grow up and see benefits of becoming X-Man?

Negasonic:
Which benefits? The matching unitards? The house that blows up every few years?

Colossus:
Please. House blowing up builds character. You ate breakfast, yes? Breakfast is most important meal of day. [gives Negasonic an energy bar] Here, protein bar. Good for bones. Deadpool may try to break yours.
