Tye Sheridan movie quotes

View Quote I was born in 2027, after the corn syrup droughts, after the bandwidth riots, after people stopped trying to fix problems and just tried to outlive them. My parents, they didn't make it through those times, so I live here in Columbus, Ohio with my aunt Alice. In 2045, Columbus is the fastest growing city in the world. It's where Halliday and Morrow started Gregarious Games.

View Quote Planet Doom. The most dangerous place in the Oasis...and a pretty great place to pick up coins. Figures Aech would be there. Aech is my best friend in the Oasis. He's my best friend, period, even though I've never actually met him in the real world.

View Quote Senior: J.J. Crawford said a boat motor went missin’ from his stock yard. Said his daughter saw this one and his friend haulin’ it off. Now you tell me right now, did you steal that motor?
Ellis: We didn’t steal it.
Senior: Lie to me again.
Ellis: We thought it was junk. We didn’t think it was worth anything.
Mary Lee: Ellis?
Senior: You tell me I raised a thief?
Ellis: I’m not a thief.
Senior: You take property that’s not yours. Property that belongs to another man. That junk is his livelihood. I’m ashamed of you.
Mary Lee: Senior.
Senior: [to Mary Lee] Shut your mouth. You think you can take things and not have him see it? Neither one of you has any respect for a man’s livelihood. A life that puts clothes on your back and food in your stomach.
Mary Lee: Don’t you blame this on me. One doesn’t have a thing to do with the other and you know it.
Senior: Don’t tell me what I know. If you can steal a man’s life out from under him in front of your son and think he won’t take a lesson from it than you’re even dumber than you look.
Ellis: Stop it dad.
Senior: She’s raisin’ you a snake like herself, and you can curl up with her ‘fore I give a damn. You just remember this when you watch them rip this house apart board by board. You hear me?!
[Mary Lee slaps Senior hard. He turns to her, saying nothing.]
Mary Lee: You’re a man who’s never had the strength to support his own life. I never asked you for a thing, and I’ve never took a thing from you that I couldn’t provide for on my own. If they do tear my home apart the only joy I’ll have in my heart is knowin’ that they’ll be tearing you out of my life for good. Ellis. You’ll return that motor from where you found it and you’ll apologize in person to the man you took it from. I won’t hear about anything like this again.
[Mary Lee exits quietly.]
Ellis: I can’t take that motor back. But I’ll pay him for it. I’ll pay him what he wants for it.
Senior: I don’t care what you do Ellis.

View Quote Mud: I like you two. You remind me of me. And seeing how you boys are from Arkansas and we know some people and sounds like we all from the same place I'd say we can make a deal here about somethin'.
Ellis: A deal for what?
Mud: Food. Food for a boat.
Neckbone: This guy's a bum Ellis. Come on.
[Mud's smile vanishes. Neckbone begins to walk off but begrudgingly stops when Ellis starts back in.]
Ellis: Why don't you go get your own food?
Mud: I would if I could, but I told somebody I’d meet ‘em here. So I’m stuck for now and what I got’s runnin’ low.
[Neckbone walks back and pulls Ellis by the arm.]
Neckbone: He's a bum Ellis, let’s go.
Mud: I'm no bum. I got money. You can call me a hobo ‘cause a hobo’ll work for his living and you can call me homeless ‘cause that’s true for now, but if you call me a bum again I'll have to teach you somethin' about respect that your daddy never did.

View Quote Neckbone: I hate snakes.
Mud: That’s because God made them for us to fear. It’s a thing we knew to be afraid of before we even got into this world. Cherokee would wrap snake skin around their pregnant women’s bellies. Induce labor, scare the child out. Here. [He fetches a length of rope out of the duffel bag and tosses it to Neckbone.] Set that ‘round your bed at night. Snake won’t cross braided rope.
Neckbone: Thanks. [nods to Mud’s snake tattoo] So what’s that for then?
Mud: A reminder. Don’t get bit. I was 10, swimmin’ ‘bout a mile up from here. Me and Juniper. Sonofabitch swam right up under me, bit me just below the armpit. June got me out, got me to a clinic. Doctor said I shoulda been dead in twenty minutes. Took us an hour just to get back to town.
Neckbone: What’d they do?
Mud: Gave me antivenom. For a cotton mouth. See here. [Mud shows the tattoo on top of his right hand. He points out the two cotton blossoms bulging from the snake’s mouth.] Problem with antivenom is they can only give it to you once. It’s made from horse blood. Your body would reject it a second time. The cure ends up being more dangerous than the poison.
Ellis: What happens if you get bit again?
Mud: I die, or just sweat it out.
