The Purge quotes

Charlie Sandin

Why don't you guys do it?

James Sandin

Because we don't feel the need to, Charlie. That's all.

Charlie Sandin

So, if you felt the need to, you would kill someone tonight?

James Sandin

Look, I know this is difficult to understand at your age, but tonight allows people a release for all the hatred and violence and aggression that they keep up inside them. Okay? And yes, if your mother and I were so inclined, uh, we would participate. Because it works. You don't remember how bad it was, Charlie. The poverty, all the crime. This night saved our country.

Emergency Broadcast System

This is not a test. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the Annual Purge sanctioned by the U.S Government. Weapons of class 4 and lower have been authorized for use during the Purge. All other weapons are restricted. Government officials of ranking 10 have been granted immunity from the Purge and shall not be harmed. Commencing at the siren, any and all crime, including murder, will be legal for 12 continuous hours. Police, fire, and emergency medical services will be unavailable until tomorrow morning, until 7 a.m., when the Purge concludes. Blessed by our New Founding Fathers and America, a nation reborn. May God be with you all.

Anonymous Man
[during the end credits]

I lost my two sons last night. My boys. Yeah, I was a proud American. Not anymore. This country has taken everything from me. It's my fault. I could have protected them from the danger, god forgive me.

Sorry to interrupt, but I'd love to have a word. We are by your front door; I just need a moment, good sir. [James sees Leader and opens door.] There you are. Thank you for accepting my invitation. Tell me, why haven't you delivered the filthy swine to me yet? Are you protecting him? I certainly hope not, Mr. Sandin.

James

No, of course not. We just can't find him. You see, this is a misunderstanding. My son let him in. He is a young boy, he doesn't know better, you know. [Leader chuckles politely] But I support what occurs here tonight 100%, okay? I sell security equipment. I sell what would never deny yours, or anybody else's right to Purge. You are very-

Killer
[angrily]

JUST GIVE US THE HOMELESS PIG, YOU ****!

[Leader shoots Killer in the head as James looks in shock and horror.] [politely]

Sorry about that. I don't condone that kind of behavior. Just keep in mind, Mr. Sandin: he was my friend, and you are not.

Mary

They can't get in here, right? They can't get into our home.

James Sandin

I don't know. It's hard to say.

Mary

You don't know? You sell these security systems. What do you mean, you don't know?

James Sandin

We have tested the system. It works 99% of the time. It looks good. It's strong. People stay away.

Mary

It looks good?

James Sandin

It's not built for worst-case scenarios.

Mary

Is it impenetrable?

James Sandin

No, nothing's impenetrable.

DEAR MR. AND MRS.! I'M SORRY TO TELL YOU THIS, BUT YOUR TIME IS ESSENTIALLY UP! AND YOU FAILED! YOU FAILED TO DELIVER THE HOMELESS SWINE! I'm very disappointed as you FINE FOLK SHOULD KNOW BETTER! THAT PIECE OF FILTH THAT YOU ARE PROTECTING EXISTS ONLY TO SERVE OUR NEED TO PURGE! So, I bid thee farewell, sweet Sandins. [loads his gun; to his gang] Release the beast, boys! Let the killing commence!

I want all these barricades down! Get chains on every door and every window!

Our equipment is arriving soon. And we will get in. Send out he, or that... will be thee.

There you are. Thank you for accepting my invitation. Tell me, why haven't you delivered the filthy swine to me yet? Are you protecting him? I certainly hope not, Mr. Sandin.

Your home tells me you're good folk, just like us. One of the haves. And your blue flowers tell me that you support the Purge. We want to treat you fairly, so listen closely. Let me introduce us. We are some fine... young... very educated... guys and gals. We have gotten gussied up in our most terrifying guises. As we do every year. Ready to violate... annihilate, and cleanse our souls. But things took a turn. Our target escaped us, and... Several of your dear neighbors informed us that you, the Sandins, have inexplicably given him sanctuary. Mr. and Mrs., the man you're sheltering is nothing but a dirty, homeless pig. A grotesque menace to our just society, who had the audacity to fight back, killing one of us when we attempted to execute him tonight. The pig doesn't know his place, and now he needs to be taught a lesson. You need to return him to us. Alive. So that we may Purge as we are entitled. Here's the plan, Sandins. You have until our provisions arrive, provisions which will help us break into your elegant home. If you don't... If you don't deliver him by the aforementioned time, we'll release the beast on him... And on you. And, um... we can enter any home we want. And we will want... as wanting is our will on this fine night. Don't force us to hurt you. We don't want to kill our own. Please, just let us Purge. Toodle-oo, Sandins. [leaves]
