Walter Finch quotes from Insomnia (2002)

View Quote Can't sleep, Will?

View Quote You have no evidence I killed Kay. You only know because I told you what I saw.

View Quote You and I share a secret. We know how easy it is to kill somebody. That ultimate taboo. It doesn't exist outside our minds. I didn't murder her. I killed her, but it just ended up that way.

View Quote [last words] You forgot the wild card, Will.

View Quote Walter Finch: Killing changes you. It's not guilt — I never meant to do it. It's, like, awareness. Life is so important, how can it be so **** fragile?
Will Dormer: You trying to impress me, Finch? Because you've got the wrong guy. You think killing that girl makes you special, but you're not. You're the same distorted, pathetic freak I've been dealing with for 30 years. Do you how many of you I've caught with their pants down?
Walter Finch: [indignantly] I never touched her like that!
Will Dormer: But you wanted to, and now you wish you had. The best you could do was clip her nails.

View Quote Will Dormer: Where is she, Finch?
Walter Finch: She's here and knows you shot Eckhart.
Will Dormer: Where's the dress?
Walter Finch: What dress?
Will Dormer: Ellie's! Kay's!
Walter Finch: She's alive, Will. Ellie!
