Faith in faith" he answered himself. "It isn't necessary to have something to believe in. It's only necessary to believe that somewhere there's something worthy of belief.

- The Stars my destination
Take a war to make you spend. Take a jam to make you think. Take a challenge to make you great. Rest of the time you sit around lazy, you. Pigs, you! Alright, goddamn you! I challenge you, me. Die or live and be great. Blow yourselves to Christ gone or come and find me, Gully Foyle, and I make you men. I make you great. I give you the stars.
Alfred Bester
- The Stars my destination
You pigs, you. You rut like pigs, is all. You got the most in you, and you use the least. You hear me, you? Got a million in you and spend pennies. Got a genius in you and think crazies. Got a heart in you and feel empties.
Céline
- Voyage au bout de la nuit
Qu'on ne vienne plus nous vanter l'Égypte et les tyrans tartares ! Ce n'étaient ces antiques amateurs que petits margoulins prétentieux dans l'art suprême de faire rendre à la bête verticale son plus bel effort au boulot. Ils ne savaient pas, ces primitifs, l'appeler "Monsieur" l'esclave, et le faire voter de temps à autre, ni lui payer le journal, ni surtout l'emmener à la guerre, pour lui faire passer ses passions.
Francis Ford Coppola, John Milius
- Apocalypse Now
It's a way we had over here for living with ourselves. We cut 'em in half with a machine gun and give 'em a Band-Aid. It was a lie. And the more I saw them, the more I hated lies.
Francis Ford Coppola, John Milius
- Apocalypse Now
When I was home after my first tour, it was worse. I'd wake up and there'd be nothing. I hardly said a word to my wife until I said yes to a divorce. When I was here, I wanted to be there. When I was there... all I could think of was getting back into the jungle. I'm here a week now. Waiting for a mission. Getting softer. Every minute I stay in this room, I get weaker. And every minute Charlie squats in the bush... he gets stronger.
