Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: [Poole stumbles] Poole, you gotta get some new boots. Cosmo Renfro: I told you not to wear the heels. Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: And I want you to wear two coats. Poole: Sure, next train wreck. Marshal Biggs: Why are ...
Marshal Biggs: Sam! Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: What? Marshal Biggs: We just got a call from Harris Community Hospital. The wounded guard swears he saw Kimble outside the emergency room. Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: Well, that's hot. Marshal Biggs...
Dr. Anne Eastman: Hey, Do you have a particular interest in our paitient's X-Rays? Dr. Richard Kimble: What do you mean? Dr. Anne Eastman: I saw you looking at that boy's chest film. Dr. Richard Kimble: It's a hobby of mine. Dr. Anne Eastman: It's a ...

Lying is essential to humanity. It plays as large a part perhaps as the quest for pleasure, and is moreover governed by that quest. One lies in order to protect one's pleasure, or one's honour if the disclosure of one's pleasure runs counter to one's...
Let an illness, a duel, a runaway horse make us see death face to face, and how richly we should have enjoyed the life of pleasure, the travels in unknown lands, which are about to be snatched from us! And no sooner is the danger past than we resume ...
A paradox: the same century invented History and PHotography. But History is a memory fabricated according to positive formulas, a pure intellectual discourse which abolishes mythic Time; and the Photograph is a certain but fugitive testimony; so tha...
Rejecting Jesus Christ is like a fugitive who spends all day running but has nowhere to hide; you will face him after death. He is the only judge and jury.
When my parents were liberated, four years before I was born, they found that the ordinary world outside the camp had been eradicated. There was no more simple meal, no thing was less than extraordinary: a fork, a mattress, a clean shirt, a book. Not...
The reality that I had known no longer existed. The places that we have known belong now only to the little world of space on which we map them for our own convenience. None of them was ever more than a thin slice, held between the contiguous impress...
If history is to be creative, to anticipate a possible future without denying the past, it should, I believe, emphasize new possibilities by disclosing those hidden episodes of the past when, even if in brief flashes, people showed their ability to r...
Cosmo Renfro: [after Kimble has just lept off the dam to escape] What happened? Where'd he go? Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: The guy did a Peter Pan right off of this dam, right here. Cosmo Renfro: What? Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: Yeah. BOOM. Cosm...
State Trooper: [sees Kimble in hospital hallway, disguised as a doctor] Hey, Doc! We're looking for a prisoner from that bus-train wreck a couple of hours ago, might be hurt. Dr. Richard Kimble: Uh, what does he look like? State Trooper: 6'1, 180, br...
Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: [listening to wiretap of Kimble talking with his lawyer] Yeah, right there. What's he saying? Sounds like, 'Next... Stop'... Do that again! Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: [listening to tape replay] 'Next... stop... ' Pool...
Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: Newman, we're gonna send you a bunch of cops, make sure they turn that place inside out. Newman: You got it Sam. Deputy Marshal Samuel Gerard: And don't let them give you any shit about your pony tail. Newman: I won't. D...
Detective Kelly: So, financially, you're not going to be hurting after this, are you? I mean, she was worth quite a bit of money. Dr. Richard Kimble: Are you suggesting that I killed my wife? Are you saying that I crushed her skull and that I shot he...
But the true nature which we repress continues nevertheless to abide within us. Thus it is that at times, if we read the latest masterpiece of a man of genius, we are delighted to find in it all those of our own reflexions which we have despised, joy...
We guess as we read, we create; everything starts from an initial error; those that follow (and this applies not only to the reading of letters and telegrams, not only to all reading), extraordinary as they may appear to a person who has not begun at...
My second thoughts condemn And wonder how I dare To look you in the eye. What right have I to swear Even at one a.m. To love you till I die? Earth meets too many crimes For fibs to interest her; If I can give my word, Forgiveness can recur Any number...
