Alan Turing: Do you know why people like violence? It is because it feels good. Humans find violence deeply satisfying. But remove the satisfaction, and the act becomes... hollow.
Alan Turing: When people talk to each other, they never say what they mean. [pause] Alan Turing: They say something else and you're expected to just know what they mean.
Elastigirl: Settle down, are you kidding? I'm at the top of my game! I'm right up there with the big dogs! Girls, come on. Leave the saving of the world to the men? I don't think so.
Sophie Kowalski: Tell me that you love me first because I'm afraid that if I tell you first you'll think that I'm playing the game.
Billy Beane: [after the Opening Day ceremony] I'm going in. Text me the play by play. Peter Brand: What? Why? Billy Beane: [as if it's obvious] I don't watch the games.
[teaching poker to young Hollywood actors] Rusty: Shane, you've got three pairs. You can't have six cards! You can't have six cards in a five-card game!
Patrick: [after witnessing Charlie kissing Sam during a game of Truth or Dare, when he's supposed to be kissing Mary Elizabeth] Oh, that's fucked up.
Dudley Heinsbergen: You wanna play some word games, or do some experiments on me or anything? Raleigh: [lying on the couch, depressed after hearing about Margot's adultery] No.
Dolores: It's game day. I'm making crabby snacks and homemades. Pat: Yeah, come on, Dad, be nice. Come on, she's making crabby snacks and homemades!
[Playing checkers] Red: King me. Andy Dufresne: Chess. Now there's a game of kings. Red: What? Andy Dufresne: Civilized. Strategic... Red: ...and a total fuckin' mystery. I hate it.
[Chen Lee wins the game] Rooster Cogburn: You can never tell what's in a Chinaman's mind, that's the way he bests you at cards. [the front door bell rings] Chen Lee: I go.
President Obama has outsourced a major portion of the U.S. space program to the Russians. That's national policy. Taxpayer money. So let's stop playing games with this outsourcing distortion and talk about the fact that when we need is a president th...
The rules of game shows limit stuff so much. I remember on 'Money From Strangers,' being in the van - not even performing - and there was a lawyer there the entire time. 'No, you can't give money for that. Yes, you can give money for that. That's a p...
I know it's a lot harder for women who don't have enough help, but the truth is, no matter how much money you have, if you want to stay involved with your children and don't want to lose being a primary parent to them, you're still in the game.
I'm not a fan of simulations. Where, 'Oh, we'll go play a simulation of world peace and figure out how to make peace' and then somehow magically that will get translated into the real world. No, that's not the kind of games that I make.
Cricket pays well, so a lot of people are naturally drawn towards the game. But to carve a niche in non-cricket sports is not easy. So state governments need to be proactive. Indians need to be made aware of the power of an Olympic medal. It should b...

I have worked really hard on my game, but I think my mother has been a real pillar of strength. She has prayed a lot, sacrificed a lot for me. You know, she hasn't seen me bat so far. When I am batting, she is praying... mothers are like that, aren't...
An awful lot of successful technology companies ended up being in a slightly different market than they started out in. Microsoft started with programming tools, but came out with an operating system. Oracle started doing contracts for the CIA. AOL s...
I love an arcade. I love a boardwalk game. But I also love a rollercoaster. Though I think the rollercoaster love comes from the fact that it took a really long time for me to reach the height requirement, so I promised myself very early on that when...
