Be careful, Preston. You're treading on my dreams.
Equilibrium quotes
Page 2 of 4But I being poor, have only my dreams, I have spread my dreams under your feet, tread softly because you tread on my dreams. (reading "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven" - W.B. Yeats)
Cleric, I can only hope one day to be as uncompromising as you.
I assume you dream Preston?
I didn't feel anything.
I pay it gladly.
I told you I'd make my career with you, Preston.
In a future where freedom is outlawed outlaws will become heroes. (USA)
In the first years of the 21st century, a third World War broke out. Those of us who survived knew mankind could never survive a fourth; that our own volatile natures could simply no longer be risked. So we have created a new arm of the law: The Grammaton Cleric, whose sole task it is to seek out and eradicate the true source of man's inhumanity to man - his ability to feel.
It's just a vestigial word for a feeling you've never felt. - After Cleric Preston claims to be sorry
It's my job to know what you're thinking.
It's not the message that is important but our obedience to it.
Libra, I congratulate you. At last peace reigns in the heart of man. At last war is but a word whose meaning fades from our understanding. At last, we are whole. Librians, there is a disease in the heart of man. Its symptom is hate. Its symptom is anger. Its symptom is rage. Its symptom is war. The disease is human emotion. But Libria, I congratulate you, for there is a cure for this disease. At the cost of the dizzying highs of human emotion, we have suppressed its abysmal lows. And you, as a society, have embraced this cure: Prozium. Now we are at peace with ourselves and human kind is one. War is gone. Hate, a memory. We are our own conscience now, and it is this conscience that guides us to rate EC-10, for emotional content, all those things that might tempt us to feel, again, and destroy them. Librians, you have won. Against all odds, and your own natures. You, have, survived.
Libria... Awake. Awaken to triumph again in the face of yet another day, another step in our unified march into the unwavering purpose...move ahead together into the certainty of our collective destiny.
Look at you! [pause] [to himself] Look at you...
