Tom Creo quotes from The Fountain (2006)

Tom Creo

There's no hope for us here. There is only death.

Tom Creo

I am sorry, Father. For you there is only death. But our destiny is with life!

Tom Creo

Death is a disease. Its like any other. And there's a cure, a cure — and I will find it.

Tom Creo

I'm here for her.

Tom

I don't know! I'm trying! I don't know how!.

Izzi

You do, you will.

Tom

I'm going to die.

Izzi

This is an actual Mayan book. It explains the Creation myth. You see that's first father. He's the very first human.

Tom Creo

Hum. Is he dead?

Izzi

He sacrificed himself to make the world.

Izzi

That's the tree of life bursting out of his stomach.

Tom Creo

Hey come.

Izzi

Listen. His body became the trees' roots. They spread and formed the earth. His soul became the branches rising up forming the sky. All the remained is first father's head. His children hung in in the heavens creating Xibalba.

Tom Creo

Xibalba. The star, eh,

Tom Creo

nebula

Izzi

So what do you think?

Tom Creo

About?

Izzi

That idea. Death as an act of creation.

Tom Creo

I'll pull out the car and meet you out front.

Tom Creo

There's been progress at work...

Izzi

My conquistador! Always conquering.

Tom

I finished it.

Izzi

Is everything alright?

Tom

Yes.

Tom

Everything's alright.
