Eva Rojas quotes from Sahara (2005)

Frank

Are you all right?

Eva

Mali, just like the others.

Frank

Yeah, I know.

Eva

This is an outbreak, Frank.

Frank

We have six cases. That's not enough.

Eva

Oh, how many do we need? Sixty? Six thousand? Where does it start tomorrow? We have to find the cure Frank.

Frank

You want to go to Mali.It's not gonna happen. W-H-O isn't gonna lose anymore staff to a civil war. (handing her a clipboard) Here, finish your report.

Eva

Good. Just in time for the autopsy.

Eva

And you found that coin?

Dirk

Not just a coin. I found the coin. Now I also had a letter from the captain's widow alluding to her husband's urgent eastern voyage. Had a sailor's log on a Atlantic clipper, who swore on the stack of Bibles, he saw a great iron beast standing two miles off the African coast.

Yves

This facility is a miracle of modern science. State of the art technology. Solar energy harness to destroy the world's contaminants. Not such a bad idea after all.

Eva

It's a toxic waste dump.

Yves

Not so simple. You see all new technology has enemies. Sandstorms for example, they chip away at the mirrors. Productivity falls and the waste needs to be stored underground. So we have developed a new laminate coating to protect the mirrors and with this new approach our problems should now be in the past.

Eva

You're poisoning a river system underground. It's spreading across western Africa.

Yves

You're wrong. That's impossible.

Dirk

Eva. How many times am I gonna have to save your ass?

Eva

Well, in case you didn't notice, I actually saved yours.
