I wanted to fly the Millennium Falcon; I wanted to save the girl. In real life, you can't do all of that: NASA's budget sucks. We're still questioning whether we went to the moon or not, you know what I mean? So I said, 'Another great way to do all o...
Brigid O'Shaughnessy: Mr. Archer was so alive yesterday, so solid and hearty... Sam Spade: Stop it. He knew what he was doing. Those are the chances we take. Brigid O'Shaughnessy: Was he married? Sam Spade: Yeah, with ten thousand insurance, no child...

Sam Spade: I hope they don't hang you, precious, by that sweet neck. Yes, angel, I'm gonna send you over. The chances are you'll get off with life. That means if you're a good girl, you'll be out in 20 years. I'll be waiting for you. If they hang you...
Sam Spade: All we've got is that maybe you love me and maybe I love you. Brigid O'Shaughnessy: You know whether you love me or not. Sam Spade: Maybe I do. I'll have some rotten nights after I've sent you over, but that'll pass.
Sam Spade: Here. [hands him Wilmer's guns] Sam Spade: You shouldn't let him go around with these on him, he might get himself hurt. Kasper Gutman: Well, well, what's this? Sam Spade: A crippled newsie took 'em away from him. I made him give 'em back.
Lt. Dundy: Well you know me Spade, if you did it or if you didn't, you'll get a square deal from me and most of the breaks. Don't know as I'd blame you much - man that killed your partner. But that won't stop me from nailing ya. Sam Spade: Fair enoug...
Darth Vader: Yes, Admiral? Admiral Piett: Our ships have sighted the Millennium Falcon, Lord. But it has entered an asteroid field and we can not risk... Darth Vader: [interupting] Asteroids do not concern me, Admiral. I want that ship, not excuses.

[Falcone has been committed to Arkham] Dr. Jonathan Crane: Outside, he was a giant. In here, only the mind can grant you power. Rachel Dawes: You enjoy the reversal? Dr. Jonathan Crane: I respect the mind's power over the body. It's why I do what I d...
Sam Spade: [impatiently] Now, let's *talk* about the black bird. Kasper Gutman: Let's. Mr. Spade, have you any conception of how much money can be got for that black bird? Sam Spade: No. Kasper Gutman: Well, sir, if I told you... If I told you *half*...
Brigid O'Shaughnessy: I do know he always went heavily armed, and that he never went to sleep without covering the floor around his bed with crumpled newspapers, so that nobody could come silently into his room. Sam Spade: You picked a nice sort of a...
The word “idiot” comes from a Greek root meaning private person. Idiocy is the female defect: intent on their private lives, women follow their fate through a darkness deep as that cast by malformed cells in the brain. It is no worse than the mal...
I live my life in widening circle That reach out across the world. I may not ever complete the last one, But I give myself to it. I circle around God, that primordial tower. I have been circling for thousands of years, And I still don't know: am I a ...
I narrowed my eyes. Jean stayed awfully well informed about prete politics, and often told me things the Elders hadn't yet learned. I suspected this might be one of those things. "How do you know all this?" He shrugged. "A wise man watches as if her ...

I wonder if the falcon knows of his gift of grace. Does he ever just take upon wing for the pure joy of it. He seems only to fly with purpose. He cares not of my envy. Mocking me as he dances with angels. But in my dreams I soar with him among the cl...
